I haven’t once heard of one of these “noose” claims being legitimate. Not once.

You mean that white woman who pretended to be black and was her NAACP chapter president also lied about the noose left on her door handle also? Shocked!

"A statement was released online by university administration and an outreach plan is set from Wednesday."

I doubt it's an outreach program to counsel these idiots that they are idiots.

If someone hangs a noose on a tree and does not actually use it on someone, why would it be a crime?

The Alliance of the Perpetually Offended must be on steroids.

And I think all those church fires in the south were done for the insurance money. No one was ever linked to those and it seems everyone is afraid to state the obvious.

Because we all know... blacks were the only individuals in history to ever be hanged and every one was at the hands of the KKK.

And its not like throughout history, in all cultures, one people has made slaves of others.

Yeah, no that only happened in America....

Since the plural of goose is geese, shouldn’t the plural of noose be neese?

The English language is an attempt by the French to correct the German one.

That anyone would take these claims seriously, investigate them etc. really is troubling.

The Ole Miss one on the statue of James Meredith was legit, but that’s the only one I’ve seen so far.

Actually, more white people were lynched in the antebellum South by white mobs than were black people lynched by white mobs.

It is an unfortunate truth and is part of tbe historical record.

Another unpleasant fact: black mobs in the antebellum South lynched other black people.
