Man Alleges Attempted Lynching at Lake Monroe

[maxwelhse]

"Hill people" are anyone who doesn't live in or near your urban paradise.

I think you're taking things a bit too literally... "Hill people" can come from, and reside, anywhere.

I live in probably a 400 house neighborhood where the houses are $200k-$300k and I'm outright surrounded by "hill people" regardless. One of the biggest offenders just took delivery of a brand new C8.

In regard to your exact circumstance, when I drive through the country side and see people with nice chunks of property I usually think the opposite of "hill people". It takes a lot of scratch to setup one of those places and most of the sub 80IQ folks we see in these videos have no prayer of ever coming up with it. Hell, most of you guys have lawn mowers that cost more than any road going vehicle I've ever owned.

Your neighbor just strikes me as a dip**** for assuming otherwise.

Anyhow...

I think in a post Jussie Smollet, Bubba Wallace world, most should have learned by now to reserve judgement till the facts are available.

I had a woman from Indy buy ten acres adjacent to mine for a weekend place and start talking to me like I was some ignorant hick. I've traveled the world, have a degree, written books and training manuals, and teach in the college setting. I played it up and after a few weeks starting letting things slip. One day she got a funny look on her face and for the first time asked a bit about my background. Watching her stammer her way through the next half an hour was thoroughly enjoyable.

Now, I grew up with hicks and rednecks and general white (and some black) trash. Trash is trash and both the cities and the country have the their fair share of it. I've seen both and have no use for it wherever such vermin are located. Someone may be ignorant or uneducated, but if they seem to care about the people around, and try to do the right thing, then they are a-ok in my book.

Some of the best and smartest people I’ve ever known barely finished high school and could hardly complete a sentence using halfway decent grammar.

High school drop out reporting in!

Over 20 years and 2 engineering degrees later I still think high school was a stupid waste of time. My parents should have let me GED when I was 15 when I begged them to.

I'm hoping with all of the Covid and distance learning stuff that is going on a lot of parents are going to see what a scam traditional K-12 education is. This goes about x100 for the kids of "hill people" who already know that they're going to be running the family farm for the next 5 generations anyhow and need to know a lot more about combines and welding than they do about Shakespeare and social justice.

Half of my time in college was pointless too for that matter...

I disagree. No one will be shocked to find that this hoax was pulled of by a race baiting attention whore.

Even the name calling social media libs know it. But it's not like they won't take any oportunity...

This was dumb on dumb crime. To me, that’s the obvious factor with, what very little info we really have. I’m not betting on the rednecks walking though. The “victim” could have beat them with a stick before the video started, and charges will still be brought in Bloomington. The world has lost its mind.

This is what I've been saying right along. There is a reason no one was arrested at the scene and it's not because one side was "right" and the other was "wrong".

 

[KokomoDave]

FBI involved now...

I'd never heard of this Booker fellow prior to this incident... perhaps he's eyeing an opportunity to run for office around here?

[FONT=&amp]Hundreds of people gathered in front of the Monroe County Courthouse on Tuesday for the second evening in a row, demanding justice following a racially charged incident at Lake Monroe on the Fourth of July.

[FONT=&amp]Following a format similar to the previous night, speakers from Black Lives Matter Bloomington and Enough is Enough, other activists, elected officials and concerned citizens demanded the arrest of those involved in an incident where Bloomington resident Vauhxx Booker was pinned up against a tree by five white men on a property near Lake Monroe.

Is that the 15 agent flying squad that investigates alleged nooses?

So in this article the police are having trouble identifying the couple who “struck” two people at the btown protest even though they have a clear license plate picture. What?

second why are they looking for them? In the article it states the man exited vehicle to move the electric scooter that was left in middle of the road. That is when one person ran in front of the car and in my thinking made aggressive acts toward the people in said car by placing hands on hood of car preventing the couples escape , or criminal confinement. That would terrify me and would make me go into self defense mode seeing that one person could easily become more in that mob mentality. So I see the couple driving the car as self defense trying to escape. Those two idiots placed themselves into harms way. I don’t see this as criminal, say hit and run.

but it’s btown, so I don’t have much hope there, glad I left.

I thought that one chick was kind of hot...in that wayward drifter methhead sort of way....

I think we're all on board with that... the codependency is just the cherry on top.

I'm gathering that Monroe Lake isn't a good place to hang out if more than one of these incidents has happened in the last week...?
