Gilbane Building Company and Turner Construction Company, the general contractors for the new Buffalo Bills stadium project, suspended construction on the project on Tuesday to investigate an incident.
There was no activity at the site all day Wednesday — an unusual experience for folks who live and work nearby.
"It's very quiet. You do not hear the construction crews. You don't see the vehicles," said Darlene Zlotok, a waitress and bartender at Danny's South on Abbott Road, located across the street from the new stadium site.
"None of the cranes are working. None of the bulldozers are. I mean, there's no workers here whatsoever," said Matwijow, the owner of Hammer's Lot, a popular private parking lot adjacent to the stadium construction.
In a statement to 7 News, Gilbane-Turner said it received a report of what could have been perceived as a symbol of hate at the site.

Orchard Park police said an officer responded and the investigation found that the suspected hate symbol was actually an industry-approved knot commonly used by iron workers.

This BS again - ropes and knots are now considered triggers for the Left.

OMG! We’re saved! Just a “symbol of hatred” knot. Geez. That was close. They could have been made to tear the joint down and it isn’t even done yet.

Oh, good God.
We have to find a way to eliminate this crap from society, this frailness and victimology.
We have to eliminate Leftism. Senator Joseph McCarthy was spot on.

All part of the Harris and Walz Third World America. I thought for sure somebody found a screw. The article I read was written when everybody, including the police investigators, were still too embarrassed to talk about it. Somebody needs to get their triggered a** fired.

I have a 3D printer, and recently, some of the filament had been extruded into the air after the print job was done, and it dried there.
It was in the perfect shape of a noose, a little knot and all. I had to laugh, so I carefully removed it and taped it up on the wall near the printer.
My printer is a White Supremacist.

Is this satire?
The report is absurd.
The reporters are speaking in hushed tones like this is some serious life or death incident.
The whole thing is absolutely stupid..................

Didn’t this problem happen at a NASCAR garage?

Will they assign a squad of FBI agents to the case?

Yup! The Bubba Wallace incident. Half white, half black. Went full black after the tiny noose was found.
