Well Bubba, if the garage pull concerned you as a threat, I suggest you never get on a boat, because our boat has about 20 ropes that have ends like that, they are used to go over a cleat on the dock or boat.
I'm sickened by the way the media called NASCAR fan racists. That is what is pathetic to me and I won't forget it.

Bubba, you just make me feel tired all over. I hope NASCAR (whom I abandoned years ago after the Frances turned it into a WWE-type clown show) is happy with their new fan base. Because they just kicked their old one in the teeth.

I'm guessing, other that an old B western oater, this phony, had never seen a "noose' before. With the assist of a very highly paid Richard Petty, he will try to be another kaepernick.

Every garage door has a rope, it's used in case of power loss so you can open or close the door manually.

I have some questions. Was that his first time there? Why didn't someone at the racetrack show him all of the other "nooses" before it got out of hand? He should have been on TV thanking the other race car drivers for being so supportive instead of whinning to that Lemon on CNN. At first I was appalled by the noose, but once everyone had been cleared, I was appalled by him.

Bubba you are exactly what is wrong with many of the black people today. You want to see hate and bitterness everwhere you look. Using your analogy every rope of the planet "could be made into a noose." I hope that you and Jesse will eventually share the same cell. You are a disgrace to the racing profession and should be kicked out for your lies and promoting hatred.

I really could care less about NASCAR but it’s bitting the hands that feeds them. This is a sport that started with the moonshine runners deep in the hills of NC and it is where the majority of it’s fans are from. Good luck with the Confederate flag dissing and embracing a race hussler.

This was a Hoax perpetrated by NASCAR against it's own fans. They wanted to embarrass and degrade the rednecks who follow their sport. Everyone involved knew this was not a noose. But, it was the NASCAR organization that made it an issue. Bubba Wallace just went along for the ride.

Will Bubba be charged with lying to the 15 FBI agents sent to investigate his hoax? If General Flynn can be charged with lying to two FBI agents in a 45 minute meeting, shouldn’t an almost 5 day investigation of a rope used to open/close a garage door lead to a similar charge against Wallace? I thought “equal justice under the law” applied to all Americans.
As to 15 FBI agents, is Director Wray that intent on embarrassing President Trump? Were the agents wearing their SWAT gear, with automatic weapons, when handling the rope? Did they take the rope back to the FBI’s lab in DC for analysis? Did the lab find traces of grease on the fibers? Did the owner of the garage have to get a ladder to close the door? These questions must be swirling around FBI hqs.

About a month ago I encountered a snake while walking my doggo. For the next several days I saw a snake in every stick on the ground. To Wallace, apparently an avowed victim (who knew), every piece of rope he sees just has to be a noose. An occasional checkered flag would get him the attention he obviously craves. Apparently this is Plan B.

Yesterday on talk radio they were saying that if there was a noose then they would have taken more pictures of it to show us. Sure enough, there are no pictures of it. But, finally, in this CBS video interview with him, they found some drive-by video footage of it, or one like it. Thing is, any reasonable person can clearly see that the "noose" is hanging RIGHT NEXT TO THE SIDE OF THE GARAGE DOOR OPENING, where it couldn't be used for anything else, or mistaken for anything other than its purpose, as a garage door pull rope.
That we are supposed to take his claims seriously, and then again today as he doubles down ("...whatever, it was a noose...") is infuriating.

Bubba should change up his race car w a sticker that says The Noose is Loose! Then, because they feel sorry for him, he can start as first car or even just cede the race to him and skip the drama. First, though, Bubba is going to get fishing supplies banned at all the Wal Marts, Cabelas, Dicks, etc because the hook is tied to a hook in a hangman's noose technique and he finds that offensive, been losing sleep. If they refuse, the stores will be burned down. Then he will get fishing permits banned.
Once they said the FBI was getting involved, alarms went off re phony endeavor. Besides everyone knows the FBI has NO credibility, after their Stalin-esque behavior against Trump, over the past few years. How the FBI agents with any semblance of ethics can walk into the FBI Reichstag, every day, defies belief.

No, Mr. Rorschach, it was not.
Nooses by nature slip.
A noose would pinch your hand every time used.
A "hand pull" is definitely not a "noose".
"Bubba" needs to apologize for impugning

Bubba, this is total made up BS, GET OVER IT and SHUT UP!
I have three garage doors in my shop, we tied a knot in the end of each so we had something to grab so we can pull down the door. I suppose in an alternate universe where everyone wears their FAKE hurt feelings on their sleeves the knot could be considered Racist since it could be the symbol of a 'beating rope'. NO matter, it has a purpose and NO ONE was thinking about made up BS when we tied the knot in the rope....Is that OK with you are are you going to pull another BLM snitty fit? My suggestion to you is SHUT UP and DRIVE your CAR, if you aren't distracted by this made up BLM crap you might just get lucky and win a race!

Interesting how the fanfare took off like a bat out of Wuhan well before any investigation. They didn't want the truth getting in the way of a good narrative. Bubba gets his 15 min, the rest of them get to virtue signal nothing to loose right? Well all except the impressionable mush minds who are conditioned to see a pointy hat where none exist, to react and resist as if they are being executed when simple law and order is being enforced, to store up anger and unleash it by blindsiding some 92 year old woman. Totally victimless fraud right?
My friend who's family members were murdered by Che didn't pitch a fit when one of our "teammates" came to work in his Che shirt. I brought it up to her and asked for her input before I took the steps I had in mind. She was fine with me doing nothing, I wasn't, I simply asked him to refrain from wearing that at work, he didn't have to change or turn it inside out just not wear it again. End of issue.
I had a jackass at work, an enlightened progressive I might add, who decided it would be funny to tie a small noose to tease a coworker with. No sponsorships were to be had so this too ended with no fanfare, nobody pushed anybody's car around the plant, just a firm talking to and a sheet paper in a personnel file.
By the way Bubba, you are welcome in my campsite, I'll have a beer on hand for you, but I have to warn you I make prolific use of eye spliced guy lines, the plastic stuff is crap and I was a Boy Scout when we were boys and still learned outdoorsy stuff.

This should have been resolved in 15 minutes. Wallace should have joked that it might give someone the wrong impression and offered to retie the lanyard into a bowtie with flowers while smiling for the camera. Would have been great positive publicity. NASCAR is to blame for this colossal publicity failure and disgusting and ugly display of racism by Wallace and the media.

First, there is a legal definition of a hangman's noose - it is a slip knot, with 13 turns of rope in the knot. A piece of rope with a functional slip knot is not a noose of any kind. nor is a lasso..
second, Bubba Wallace is the first black snow flake in a time of snowstorms. I would think he would be embarrassed by his mistake, but instead he stands, implicitly, with Jussie Smollett.
(I suspect there are lots of black people who are embarrassed for Bubba, but can't say anything.)

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Sometimes a loop of rope is just a loop of rope.
How many garage doors has Bubba opened in his life. He's a driver, not a mechanic. How many rope handles has he walked by in the past without taking any notice. Bubba is being defiant because he is feeling self-conscious. Just let it go. Its the best thing you can do. People over-react all the time.
Btw, according to the article, Bubba did not find the noose. NASCAR found it, and the President of NASCAR notified Bubba Wallace. This has all spiraled out of control far enough.

For promoting this racially divisive lie, Bubba should be required to remove all current ad stickers from his NASCAR racer and replace them with big ads for Aunt Jemima Pancakes, Mrs Butterworth syrup and Eskimo Pie ice cream bars. Same for his driver’s suit. Reason - none of the companies behind these now disfavored brands will pay for the placement, showing how ridiculous Bubba’s claim was.
Or, big ACME Rope stickers all over his car, with “When in doubt, it must be an ACME Rope.” Forgive 2nd post.

I have a very heavy rollup door on my shop.
It is so heavy, I had to tie a loop in the pull rope to be able to lift it.
I now realize I must have had some Freudian racial intent when it got tied.
As soon as I get the chance I will remove the loop and find another way of opening the door.
I sincerely apologize to anyone I may have offended by such an blatant act of “white privileged”.

Bubba has gone full blown Jussie Smollett. In spite of physical evidence he insists that it's a noose planted there months ago in anticipation that NASCAR's only black driver would be assigned that garage stall. Everybody who has a garage door in this country has one of those little ropes hanging down, some have loops, some have wooden handles and some have simple knots on the end. He has never won a race but the odds of winning the victimhood jackpot are far better.

NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace says he’s “pissed” members of the public are now questioning his integrity
I question CNN's integrity more than I do Bubba's. The 'noose' has already been shown to be nothing but a garage door pull cord, (good work, Sundance) and even hard-core Left sites are writing it off as nothing more than a coincidence that it was in his garage and it looked like a noose knot.
But here CNN goes out of their way to give headline skimmers the impression that it was still a noose. We now have three tiers of dishonesty: liars, filthy liars, and CNN.

I saw a video (taken at a previous event) a few days ago where the videographer walked along the row of garage stalls, talking to different people and looking at the different cars. EVERY door has an identical pull-rope, and EVERY pull-rope had an IDENTICAL hand loop.
By the way, any PHOTOS yet of the so-called 'Noose'?
I have not yet seen one...... if there HAD been one, it would have been on the Front Page....EVERYWHERE..... to Advance the Leftist Narrative.
