Is Racism Politics? Employees find Noose

[PoliticalActivist]

Its a shame that these employees (majority Black) goes into work where a hanging noose is hanging in the doorway. It was not a message to the white employees, and no Black man would have hung a noose in a White man's business establishment. A reporter on the Black Network News stated that it was purely racism, and is racism currently being used as politics.

Crazy... do you have a link for that?
Also, how do you know for sure that "no black man" would've done it, or that they didn't do it in an attempt to frame white men?
I wouldn't put anything past anybody these days, black or white.
I'm not saying you're wrong; you could well be right.
But I'd have to know more about it.

Yeah, I would say that it is more likely than some stupid *** form of racism.

Im so ****ing sick of people crying racism it makes me want to blow chunks everywhere.

"Your only arresting me because im black!"....

No, dumbass Im arresting you because you are carrying 1 1/2 lbs of marijuana in your car idiot!

IMO, there is nothing racist about a noose in itself. Now if there was a noose with a black dummy doll being hung there, that is another story. But just the noose itself is not racist to me.

Is it threatening? Absolutely and should be taken down IMO, however, I don't see racism in there in itself by just having a noose.

Terms like "racist" and "terrorist" are getting thrown around WAAAAY to much these days. Kinda like the boy that cried wolf to me.
