Minneapolis firefighter finds noose in locker, FBI asked to investigate

Minneapolis officials have asked the FBI to investigate after a piece of rope resembling a noose was found in a black firefighter’s locker.

The rope was found at a Bloomington fire station on June 15, and was not reported for a week. The rope was tied into what appeared to be a crude noose, according to reports.

“Acts like this that embody hate, intimidation, and aggression will not be tolerated,” Bloomington Fire Chief Ulie Seal said in the release. “The firefighter who brought this to our attention has demonstrated extreme strength and bravery and has done the right thing.”

Bloomington Mayor Tim Busse said he is “disgusted, angry, and embarrassed by this cowardly act. To be clear, this incident is very serious and is being dealt with aggressively.”

Busse said the city plans to bring in a mental health consultant “to address the emotional, social, and psychological trauma that results from racial traumatic events.”

Since the FIB oh sorry FBI sent 15 agents to investigate the last hoax, they should send 30 this time and maybe they will solve the crime.

I must have missed the white supremacy meeting when hanging nooses became a “thing.”

It's been a weird "trend" from the very beginning. Most Americans associate nooses with cattle rustlers and gunslingers being hanged in Westerns, not black people.

If and when it is shown to be a hoax, the perpetrator will go unpunished and the whole thing will be seen as a valuable aid in starting a deep ‘conversation about race’ which is long overdue in this racist culture. Because even though it wasn’t put there by a racist, it is just the kind of thing they’d do. /s

Remember the guy in Lansing, MI at the State Capitol peaceful demonstration for the re-opening of free enterprise in Michigan? He had a (gasp) little Barbie Doll with a tiny string rope around the neck.

The utter panic level only recently settled down. Whew!

So, under the new Minneapolis defund the police “reforms”, do they send a cop or a therapist to the noose call? My guess is therapist because not one of these “noose” hoaxes ever been proven is be true.

“Minneapolis firefighter finds noose in locker”

Of course he found it. He’s the one who put it there.

“FBI asked to investigate”

They need a break from solving bank robberies, I guess.

A very clever trick to keep the FBI so tied up with nooses, they won’t even have any time left to investigate the rioters, looters and statue destroyers.
