Redirecting the narrative back to race. Pretty much exactly how I expected this to go down. Bottom line... NO Hate crime committed! Let’s get back to Racing not Racism... Big weekend coming in Pocono

Bubba should be kicked out for life. Once for complaining about the Virginia Civil war flag and this fake noose.

My problem, in this works of I Stanton evidence we live in today, is I didn't hear anybody insisting on seeing (pictures of) the rope that the crew member found. I also found it odd that the day after this was reported it came out that an "apparent noose" was found at Sonoma Raceway the day prior to this one. Haven't seen pictures of that one either.

Okay. I'm going to go with everything everyone is saying is true. Now, WHY THE HELL WAS THIS NOT ADDRESSED PREVIOUSLY?!!?
I understand everybody is super sensitive to everything in our current climate, but this was a problem way before current events took over the world. To me, everyone involved with NASCAR failed for not addressing and correcting this unacceptable act previously.

When I was a kid (a long time ago)we made nooses all the time. Never was there any racial connotation- in our minds the only ones who got hung were horse thieves!
For the life of me, I can't see how so many things have becomes symbols of slavery.
I guess that soon the native Americans will rise up and demand that John Wayne, and all such like, be expunged. from our society.
Pardon me- gotta make a run to the video store and stock up just in case!

THe “noose”.. When they first said a “noose” was found in his garage I envisioned a rope with a noose that a human could be hung with. I guess if one is looking at everything with a racism eye that one can make a simple garage pull down rope into something racist. The media was all too compliant. That is the first picture that I've seen of this so called Noose. That looks somewhat like a hangman's noose to me. Now if that loop can get bigger and the rope slides though the knot then that is definitely a hangman's noose. But if the knot does not slide close or open then it's not a hangman's noose. It's definitely a rope that is used to open and close the garage door. Normally there is a "T" handle on the end of the rope. At least that is what the rope is like on my garage door opener. My rope is there in case of a power loss when my electric garage door opening won't function and I can pull the manual rope and then open and close the garage door. The key question in my mind is not the type of knot but if it was there long before the black race car driver got assigned to that garage? That would be telling if it were not there before and all of a sudden the rope was tied in a knot like that after Bubba started using that garage. In any case it's Southern Good Old boys sending a message to the only black race car driver in NSACAR or it's a door puller that has been there long before Bubba came onto the scene. And finally are the rest of the ropes in the other garages similar to the one in Bubba's garage? That would be really telling to me as an investigator.

And I'm not aware that bubba was complaining about the Confederate Battle Flag. IMHO the Confederate Flag should have been burned right at the end of the Civil War when General Robert E. Lee surrendered to Grant. They were way too soft on the South IMHO. Some in the South never surrender and think that they are still fighting the Yankees. They are wrong and got their A$$s handed to them by Grant. We have one flag in these United States and that is Old Glory and IMHO people flying the Confederate Flag are traitors to our country. We should have let Grant confiscate their confederate flags and burned them all.

Nothing racist whatsoever, just something I have always done I probably better quit before I am crucified by political correctness.

Mouse, you wouldn't last five minutes in the deep south. Unless you could keep your mouth shut and lousy opinions to yourself. There is a lot of pride in our heritage, I never signed on but respected it as I spent a bunch of time there with one side of my family from the quachita mountains of Arkansas. Nicer people than up north and prettier women. And better crappie fishing.
