From the same venue in another stall - AHHHHH A NOOSE!!!



Wait, here's Bubba's stall from the year prior, long before Bubba was ever assigned... look at that racist noose!!!!



Instead of spending 2 min investigating, NASCAR went to the media and proclaimed a hate crime.

And yall lap it up each and every time.

Where is Jussie Smollet when you need him?

hangmans noose around Black Americans aint cool

I dont care if Jefferson Davis himself tied it in 1863

NASCAR handled it about as well as it could be handled
///////////

"A Richard Petty Motorsports crewman noticed the noose and informed crew chief Jerry Baxter, who notified security. A photo was taken of the noose before it was cut down, and NASCAR contacted the FBI, who also viewed the picture."

to be clear NASCAR released a press release explaining the situation and saying it was turned over to the FBI
MAGA hyperbolicly - as is their want - " proclaimed it a hate crime"

- Bubba had received death threats.
- A flag was flying over the track
- Protests outside.
- "Were there heightened emotions at what has gone on over the past two and a half weeks in our country and then in our sport? I think it absolutely was emotionally charged."

It's good to see NASCAR acting quickly and responsibly. Now MS is being forced to change its racists flag by the coaches of the Egg Bowl. Maybe this really is a watershed moment.

How is going to the press and issuing a nationwide message of a hate crime without taking one min of due diligence or evidence collection acting responsibly

It doesn't change the fact it was a non issue though.

People see what they want to see i guess.

Everything the left gets embarrassingly wrong is never addressed. Goalposts slightly move and an adapted conspiracy is pushed.

No, nooses are an issue, even ones made just for the fun of it, because people will see what they want to see.

Wokeism has taken us back full circle to full on racism again. Segregation, jim crow, etc all back

It was a piece of functional rope made into a noose for no good reason, and NASCAR, including most of the drivers, stood with the black man.

THAT'S the story, and it's a big one.

Of course they did. They aren’t monsters. This shouldn’t surprise anyone.

Mississippi Historical Society could use a proofreader. But the sentiments expressed are warmly endorsed.
