Missouri High School Says Supposed ‘Noose’ Found in Bathroom Wasn’t Racially Motivated
“I am writing to let you know of a disturbing discovery that is impacting our community.”
This looks just like the NASCAR ‘noose’ story. Have we learned nothing? Incidentally, this is not a noose, which is a very specific type of knot. This is just a loop at the end of a cord.
The College Fix reports:
Noose not ‘racially motivated,’ school district says
A noose found in a Missouri high school bathroom is not “racially motivated,” according to the district.
However, the district has not responded to College Fix questions for further information.
Parent Mitchell Long reported finding a noose in a bathroom near the Francis Howell Central High School football stadium last week.
“Wow, are we still doing this, did this really just happen,” Long, who is black, told the media, recounting his reaction.
“Too many of our black and brown babies have those struggles in our schools,” Long told KSDK 5.
But an investigation concluded the suspect involved did not put the noose there as a racist act.
“After extensive conversations and investigation, we do not believe this to be a racially-motivated incident,” the district stated last Friday, according to KDSK 5. “However, we understand the symbolism of a noose and the harm it has caused to our community.”
“The Francis Howell School District will not tolerate hate or racially-motivated violence in our schools or on our campuses,” the district further stated, according to the NBC affiliate. “We will continue to work in partnership with students, staff and community members to nurture an environment where everyone feels welcome, safe, supported and loved.”
Soon after the noose was found, the principal of the high school sent a message to the community.
“I am writing to let you know of a disturbing discovery that is impacting our community. Last evening, administrators were informed that a parent found a noose hanging from a stall in the men’s restroom near the concession stand at Spartan stadium,” Principal Suzanne Leake wrote. “While there were no words or notes to accompany the noose, we are partnering with law enforcement to investigate this as a potential hate crime.”

Would this non-noose have “impacted the community” had it not been something blown out of proportion and given to the press?
It was probably installed there by a member of the David Carradine fan club.
Even supposing it were motivated by racist hatred, how could it possibly be a hate crime? Where’s the crime?
It needn’t and shouldn’t tolerate any kind of violence. But it is required by law to tolerate hatred, and give it the same consideration as any other kind of opinion.
Taking bets on whether or not this was self-inflicted.
Who knew that The Oxbow Incident and The Virginian were movies about race. Or that Leo Frank HY”D was black.
1) “near” the stadium??

“Too many of our black and brown babies have those struggles in our schools,” Long told KSDK 5.”
Too many of our black and brown babies need to grow up and put on their big boy pants.
Have those struggles. Kids in school are throwing up nooses out of control? Are they taking time out of their marches for lbtqeieio marches and burning American Flags for Free Palestine under the adoring gaze of school administrator’s?
Im going to run around and throw banana peels into the bushes just to get everyone up in arms. Laugh but that was an actual story at NC State. Imagine being so fragile that seeing garbage makes you find a safe space and hug a puppy.
Lol! Another hoax. How many times are we going to do this as a nation? The very groups which cry and scream racists , homophobes , islamphobe , are the worst of humanity , seeking to create hate based on mountains of lies. If we cannot stop this demonic movement this nations goose is cooked , the good news is too late the marxists will discover they have sown their oppression and suffering as well, not just those who oppose their bs.
