Because only blacks were ever lynched. Because the word "lynch" can only be used as a reference to blacks. Because using the word "lynch" will make blacks vote for you--(Actually it would have the opposite effect).
Looked up the word "lynching"--"(of a mob) kill (someone), especially by hanging, for an alleged offense with or without a legal trial." No mention of blacks being a basic or required part of the definition referentially or otherwise. Probably an outmoded definition that is no longer useful in the new age.
I guess the word "lynching" has been redefined by our Progressive language commissars and must join other words with new politically prescribed meaning--such as happened to the word "racist."
