prevnextBubba has perpetuated the lie on The View and on Don Lemon. He's part of the deception now.

Also.....a noose is a noose is a noose. Why are people making a distinction of it being there in 2019 versus 2020? I mean Damn so it's okay to be racist in 2019, but not 2020!

prevnextYes and the media reported incorrectly without proper knowledge all while depicting a whole sport and it’s fans as racist.

It also was a noose. It may have been there previously, and it may have had a purpose, but it was a noose.

prevnextWhat is being missed as well is that a noose in any form, went unnoticed or ignored or it’s so ingrained in the culture; that it didn’t raise an eyebrow for a year. #Racism #AntiRacists

The willful ignorance on this so they can crow "told you it was a hoax" is pretty rich.

prevnextDo you not understand that someone tying the door pull into a noose, is still a noose? If I carve my ceiling fan into a swastika, does it somehow become not racist? A noose is every bit as racist a symbol as a swastika, think about what you're saying.

Doesn’t matter!!!! A noose was hanging in a NASCAR garage for months. That’s all we need to know. How many ppl saw it and then used it w/o ever saying “Hell, no!” That endorsement, or, at best, indifference is worse than 1 idiot working alone. #NASCAR has a problem!!
