Lynn Bomar[edit]

Bomar from The Commodore (Vanderbilt Yearbook) 1923

  • ... that "The Blonde Bear" (pictured) supervised the ransacking of black households in the 1946 Columbia Race Riots?
  • Reviewed: not a self-nom

5x expanded by MisterCake (talk). Nominated by Cbl62 (talk) at 07:14, 25 August 2014 (UTC).

  • Lots of refs and good length and a major expansion of a small stub. Interesting guy with good story. The hook sounds a bit unfair, but no, this guy admitted to being really nasty and unrepentful under oath in court and .... this did no harm to his career. Different times..... no evidence of paraphrasing and nuetral. Image is free. Thanks @MisterCake. Good nomination. Victuallers (talk) 09:48, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
