Construction company offering $100,000 to determine who left alleged 'noose' at Obama library site

A Chicago construction company is offering a whopping $100,000 reward to anyone who can help reveal the identity of whoever allegedly placed a noose at the site of the future Barack Obama Presidential Center.

Major controversy erupted on Thursday after officials said the noose was found hanging at the construction site of the center, which is being built in Chicago's Jackson Park.

Lakeside Alliance, the company in charge of building the site, responded to the controversy by "offering a $100,000 reward to help find whoever was responsible," the Chicago Tribune reported on Thursday.

”We have zero tolerance for any form of bias or hate on our worksite," the company said in a statement, according to the Tribune. "Anti-bias training is included in our onboarding process and reiterated during sitewide meetings."

"We are suspending all operations on-site in order to provide another series of these trainings and conversations for all staff and workers,” the company added.

On Twitter, meanwhile, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker responded to the alleged noose by declaring that "hate has no place in Illinois."

What white guy would dare go to Chicago’s Jackson Park, especially at night, to leave a “noose” at the construction site?!?

Obama was such a zero as a President the center should really be to honor Emmett Till and his sacrifice and all the young people killed in Chicago without a care.

Have they shown pictures of the “noose”? How do we know it’s really a noose?

A noose bit my sister.

Why is it important? Just throw it out and keep working. Nothing will come of it. Nothing.

A true 13 loop noose or just a rope with a loop?
Most people can’t identify what a true hangman’s noose looks like.

"with all the crime in chicago you would think there would be some security cameras"

With all the crime in Chicago you'd think they'd have more important things to do.

I don’t know but I bet the person’s skin was black just like the skin of the murderer who killed a white person today that no one knows about because we are reading a post about a noose instead.

Yep, the dude that brought it in, is probably the guilty party.
