Found by the builders? Exactly who do they think put it up? Management?

If this keeps up, Dickie Daley will be moving for Chicago to have the strongest rope control laws in the nation. And that should be no problem, there should be little resistence because unlike firearms the constitution does not protect the bearing of rope.

A noose here and a noose there. I guess hanging a knife or a bullet is too expensive to make a statement.

Nobody should be writing slurs or leaving nooses around, but when you make this stupid stuff a “hate crime” you elevate something really weak into a major problem. If someone is threatened with a noose, as in “this will happen to you” that’s a different story. But turning every grafitti racial slur into a “hate crime” is giving too much attention to some unworthy jerk.

How about some names to go with the article? I don't know about Chicago, but I do know that Blacks and Mexicans aren't being good neighbors in L.A.

And what's with thise noose business lately? I'll bet it isn't skinheads doing that. That herd is almost extinct.

I used to work for a very PC software company. One day, one of the employees (a supervisor) parked his Toyota 4Runner in the lot and went in to the office.

Some of his underlings then came out, attached a length of chain to the back of the Toyota, ran it along the ground, and then drew a chalk outline of a body with one hand near the end of the chain.

Most everyone who worked there and saw that thought it was pretty funny, but upper management was not amused, of course.

Come on people get with it. It’s obvious that either Hillary Clinton camp or Barak Hussein Obamas camp is stragecially placing these. In their minds this will create a racial divide. You know the kind of thing the Dems pray for every night. Remember a perceived racial divide lets them stir up feelings of poor me. Driving more black votes to the Dems.

I think it’s mostly teenagers who’ve seen the kind of reactions and attention these incidents get and want to play copy-cat. Add beer to equation and you’ve got your answer.

OK, apparently this is becoming the “fad” of the moment, at least in the news if not actions.

I always look askance at alleged “hate crimes” (should be HATRED; when did the verb form become a noun?), not only because they’re specious in principle, but they’re so easily “faked”. Easy to make it seem what it’s not.

Like that black teacher painting “racist” (i.e., white) stuff on walls, and correcting his English in the middle of it.
