...think they should hold off....there is a "resident" in dire need.................

Delaware removes state's last whipping post on public grounds

 

The last whipping post left in the state of Delaware was removed from the grounds of a courthouse Wednesday after protesters decried the history of racial injustice the post symbolized.

The state-owned post, which was used to flog people as punishment for their crimes until 1952, had been on display outside the Old Sussex County Courthouse for nearly three decades.

 

It was excavated and removed from the premise and has been placed in storage with other historic artifacts.

 

“Such relics of the past should be placed in museums to be preserved and protected for those who want to remember the cruel, inhuman, barbarous acts perpetrated on our citizens,” said Reba Hollingsworth, vice-chair of the Delaware Heritage Commission.

 

To bolster cries for the post to be removed, historians have pointed to the fact that blacks were disproportionately persecuted and punished by whipping and other public humiliation methods.

Something tells me that a number of us wish the whipping post was not mothballed.  Of course, the name of the device would have to be changed, but there might just be a line of people waiting to put it to use given some of the out-of-control folks comng out of hiding [no pun intended].  Naturally [again, no pun intended[, one would have to use ***** willow branches in place of rawhide straps to be as PC as possible.

The word 'post' indicates a phallic symbol of racist patriarchal dominance. They should come up with a more gender-neutral term so that no one feels excluded or uncomfortable when being tied to it and being whipped.
