Really dont’ see how its “racially insensitive”, though its a bit edgy for halloween. Im sure the people didn’t mean anything by it though.

In other news, EVERYTHING offensive to black people. The cure is for whitey to off themselves/ dripping sarcasm.

[HokieMom]

Some people are so darn weird.

But the Sarah Palin hanging in effigy a few years ago at Halloween, that one was ok. What’s the difference?????

[Ezekiel]

The decorations do have a certain "Fail" vibe to them, but geez. Would there have been any complaint if the bags were white?

Where's the Jackie Gleason pic that's been appearing around here lately?

Anytime I see a rope around a branch of a tree it only leads me to think about one thing.
Me too. It reminds me that my HOA requests that trees be trimmed and low hanging branches be removed. I typically use a rope, vehicle, and saw for the large ones.
When did police start investigating insensitivities along with crimes?

Body bag manufacturers seem to prefer the absence of reflected light for their body bags. Why I don’t know but blame them. Also blame Glad and other trash bag manufacturers for using black as their plastic color. I’m so triggered by all this ‘insensitivity’ nonsense I need to go find a safe space.

The actions of black people offend me.Deport them .

[Covenantor]

How about these offensive costumes?

"Anytime I see a rope around a branch of a tree it only leads me to think about one thing"

Same here. I really miss that old tire swing my grandma had at the old house. Brings back some good memories.

Well, I guess if one of them was wearing a red sequined cowboy hat...

That might be a might insensitive

[ex91B10]

So the police now are on sensitivity patrol?

[JudyinCanada]

Well, I’ll give it a 10 for creepy. They look like dead people hanging in body bags. Maybe they’re friends of the Clintons. I find the whole Halloween thing rather stupid anyway. I had a friend who used to put 3 tombstones on her front lawn.....with her kids’ names on them! Creepy.

[VanDeKoik]

Not racial....but come on, dude!

This is really visually disturbing. Like who was this supposed to appeal to? Little kids?

NFL players are encouraged to kneel because they hate white culture but the cops are called when some homeowner puts up Halloween decorations.

Welcome to modern America.

Thanks for voting for it. :)

“Fresno State Associate Professor and Program Coordinator of Africana Studies, Dr. De Anna Reese explained how easily some could have misinterpreted it.”

Yeah, “Dr.” De Anna. And anytime a white person uses the word “niggardly” idiots like you demand they be fired because, as noted, you’re an idiot.

[Balding_Eagle]

The homeowner should not have taken them down because he has white privilege.

“In this case they were black bags. I think even if they would have been clear bags. Anytime I see a rope around a branch of a tree it only leads me to think about one thing. We have to be clear that who are the bodies historically hung from trees. It is not to say that other ethnic groups were never lynched because they were. But the great majority were people of African descent,” said Dr. Reese.

This is a classic PR op by the SJW types. This Dr. is a flaming lib.

A homeowner in Hanford says she took down her Halloween decorations after Hanford Police told her they were "racially offensive."

I am very pro-police, having spent 38 years as an MP and civilian LEO.

But I cannot see how or why the police of any municipality (or any damned governmental agency, for that matter) has the authority or the duty, or even THINKS they have the authority or duty, to tell a private citizen what may or may not be "racially offensive", today, in the United States of America.

There is a civil war coming.

Mark my words.

[mfish13]

Why is the police involved with this?
