White women do not need to mix, appeared on one bench. Keep the white race pure, on another. Yet another bench called for people to remember Joseph Paul Franklin, a white supremacist who argued vehemently against interracial marriage and was jailed and executed for killing people who practiced it.
Most famously, on March 6, 1978 Franklin ambushed and shot Hustler publisher Larry Flynt, paralyzing him from the waist down. In his confession, Franklin admitted that he had targeted Flynt because his magazine showed graphic depictions of interracial intercourse.
In May of 1980, Franklin shot Urban League President Vernon Jordan, Jr. after observing him in the company of a white woman.
After his conviction for the murder of Gerald Gordon in 1977, Franklin admitted that his motivation for all 22 of the murders he committed between 1977 and 1980 was to start a race war.
Now, since republicans came to the defense of the black conservative who picture was defaced I'm sure it was about showing respect to blacks and not just a partisan defense, right?
Riiiiiiight..
