My grandfather was there, Im 53 now and I remember my grandfather telling me the only mistake they made was not hanging the 3rd nigger. That was his words, I was about 13 when he told me that and I will never forget it.

I was born (1946) in and grew up in Marion, Indiana. Marion is the most nowhere place in Indiana. It is a town of abject poverty for most and rampant unemployment. One word to describe this hell-kole would be SAD.
