what possible utility could a noose-shaped garage door rope serve, other than the nominal?


I have a noose as decoration here.
Not an African American in sight.

But yeah,
Probably not a good idea in America.

The FBI has determined that NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace was not the victim of a hate crime and that a pull rope fashioned like a noose had been on a garage door at Talladega Superspeedway since as early as October, NASCAR said Tuesday.

So the noose was only aimed at black folks in general vicinity? gee that's a relief :roll:


Any chance you could enlighten us with the facts that prove that it was aimed at any one person or group?

Or is the claim unsuported by facts and so just a poor attempt at assigning a motive that would suit a given political narrative?

Unsubstantiated claims (as this appears to have been at this point) are what ends with legitimate occurrences being ignored\downplayed, as people have become "desensitized" through the "false alarms", and can eventually result in people turning against a cause, as well as causing them to doubt the integrity of those who made the false claims.


The FBI may have wrapped up their investigation but NASCAR said "We are continuing our portion of the investigation to try to determine why there was a rope fashioned into a noose, which obviously happened sometime last October or before."

Obviously in the US everyone knows what hanging a noose means....a lynching

It's one of those incredibly sh***y stainless "decorative/designer" bladed objects that make enthusiasts of proper blades throw up in their mouths a little.
