CNN enlarged the picture of the noose for greater emotional impact.

So where is the picture of a noose that’s been fashioned into a garage door pull?

If the garage pull was fashioned into a noose, it was done by the guy who “found” it.

That’s not the same picture they showed the other day.

Somebody who knows how to tie knots tied it to give the end of the rope some heft and have something to grab onto.

Now even knots are racist.

That’s a Kreh loop knot, commonly used when fishing.

NASCAR just released a photo of the garage pull rope that was fashioned into a noose at Talladega.

I'm pretty sure this is incorrect. A "noose" is required to slip so that it tightens. If it has nothing to tighten around, it will come apart when you pull on the body of it.

This thing clearly doesn't slip through like a noose, and is therefore not a "noose."

Also, all the other doors at this facility had these same knots on their pull down ropes. I know because i've seen a video showing all the doors had these knots.

It will be proof enough for the moonbats.

They know deep down it’s BS, but it gives them just enough cover.

That rope looks nice and new to me.
I bet this is the replacement noose, which is STILL not a noose if it doesn’t tighten on your hand.

When I was a kid in school in the Middle Ages, we had roll-up shades in the windows. All of their pull down cords had been tied into small nooses, in every classroom.

It was a segregated schools system in Mississippi, so there were no blacks to be ‘offended’ or intimidated there.

It’s just what kids do......................

Nowhere near the 13 loops that would make it a noose. Looks more like a snell.

When I was a kid, some other kid taught me how to tie a hangman’s noose. I thought it was the coolest thing. I was tying every piece of rope I could find into a noose. It all stopped when I hung one of my sister’s dolls from the light fixture over our dining room table. My dad saw it and sat me down for a serious talk. My whole perspective changed.

Something like this may have occurred in these NASCAR garages. Maybe it was some bored mechanic or kid practicing his knot tying skills.

We were fans of Westerns as kids.

We used to tie nooses all the time just for fun.

Learned how in Cub Scouts.

Sometimes a noose is just a noose.

I've seen 2 different photos, supposedly from 2019 of this garage.

This one doesn't look like the other one.

BTW, I grew up in a "White Privilige" area where there were absolutely no blacks.

Poor, like every other Cracker there, on an unpaved road next to a farm.

I have heard and seen people write that NO ONE would do this unless out of hate! REALLY?!? If it has been there since BEFORE this race, can anyone think of an INNOCENT REASON for it to be there?

I can think of a couple with #1 being that the cut rope was too long when it got installed. Either you make a big but neat knot or you end up with a piddly-assed small length of useless rope to throw away. #2 would be that someone just tied the knot FOR FUN and practice(?). There have been times when I have tried to make that knot with string, just to see how it worked. I assure all and sundry that there was not the slightest lynching thought anywhere in my mind or house.

Occam’s Razor; assume the simplest explanation that meets the facts! But the Mob roars and demands we admit to racism because they know that all whites are indelibly racist. How racist of them!
