A hate crime investigation is under way after a 12-year-old girl received a black doll with beads forming a noose around its neck at a Mississippi Gulf Coast Mardi Gras parade.

Nicole Fairconeture of Pass Christian said she and her family attend the Krewe of Nereids parade that rolls along U.S. 90 in Bay St. Louis and Waveland every year.


quote:

On Sunday, Fairconeture said a man on a black and gold New Orleans Saints-themed float called her daughter up the side of the float to give her a throw.


quote:

“She grabbed the item, put it to her chest, and was coming back (from U.S. 90 to the business) and he called her back,” Fairconeture said. “When she turned around, he said, ‘That’s you.’”

The doll was black and “was dressed like a slave,” Fairconeture said. The upset mother flagged down Bay police and handed the doll over to officers. She said her uncle has filed a police report.

Wow. Another B.S. hoax.

BTW - that's not a noose. Any jackleg can loop beads around a doll's neck.

If she wouldn't be holding the doll by the beads there would be no fuss.

During the interview the mother stated that it was a green beaded noose around the doll's neck. The picture shows purple beads.

I smell BS and someone tryin to get on the news about nothing. Looks like a normal black doll with some mardi gras beads. This kinda thinking and shite is how and why we can't get rid of racism. People want to be victims of it for some reason.

Quote from the MAYOR of the town.

“When I seen that it had happened, it infuriated me,” Smith told the Sun Herald.

He seen it. What had happened was. How do these people get elected?

He also declares that the perpetrator will be charged with a hate crime. No need to investigate the facts or let the police and DA get involved here. The Mayor got this.

Something about this screams fake news. Awful if true but too dramatic to be believed at face value

It's a throw with beads around it's neck.

$100 says the alleged victim added the beads.

he called her back,” Fairconeture said. “When she turned around, he said, ‘That’s you.’”



This is maga country!

That’s how you know it’s fricking bullshite. The race hoaxers always have to add that extra layer of bullshite that they think makes it more believable but really makes it clearly bullshite.
