They didn't like it because it went against everything they believed in as a race and i think that the laws were stupid but it's not like wcan go back in time and made it all change it is part of our history and it's nothing we can do about it now so whatever to this question and if your wonder why i commented on this is I'm tried of people not having their facts straight and people who are not even black telling their feeling on how we feel so whatever to them commenting and that's that

Life under Jim Crow Laws for African Americans was truly hard. White people abused the laws so they could treat the black people unfairly. Black people had anger and rage for the whites inside them, but had to keep the feeling inside when they saw white people around. A black person was a burden to the white people. The white people where 'the CHOSEN ONES' according to their priests and ministers. If the black people did ANYTHING offensive to the white people (mistakenly running into them, touching a white woman, cussing at a white person, or not calling them Mr,Ms, or Mrs) could result in MAJOR trouble, perhaps not by the gov't or the authorities, but by white people themselves.

As you can see Jim Crow Laws caused many hardships for black people. Simple stuff, like making an old, disabled black person walk all the way to the back of a bus, was common!
