A new study claims to show that erecting Confederate monuments decreased the number of lynchings, and removing them during Black Lives Matter protests increased racist violence. I'm unconvinced!

Deporting every black person to Angola would decrease the number of lynchings, too.

It would be even more effective to deport every racist person instead, of course.
