If it happened it was wrong. BUT his performance evaluations and work history should be examined before this becomes another I cant breath moment. Just speculation but if this was cooked up to get him out of there it should have some kind of paper trail. Some of these union jobs in the NYC region are hard to get into and if you dont perform its hard to get you out. So the shite jobs got to the shite worker. The only way out is to apply else where and sit on the bench until you get another job. I think him cooking this up gets him a cherry job and the story kinda protects him.

Every thing turns into a racial issue with these folk.

You fired me because I'm black. No I had to document you were late 20 days in a row before I could fire you because your black.

If it was a white dude we would have already replaced them.

Did the definition of "understandably" change?

Sounds like he was on the verge of getting fired for being shitty at his job, and used this as a scape goat to get some $$.

Bingo

I think one of these was going down at a Car Dealership earlier this morning. I had to drop vehicle off, and it sounded like the person at desk, picking up car was baiting the workers into a confrontation. Luckily, the workers wouldn't take the bait.

I'm expecting this to be the lead into news on one of the Libtard, race baiting St.Louis news stations.

"At 6, we talk to a man who was called racists words as he tried to pick up his car from dealership".

Wait, is this where we are now? Showing a picture of a noose is sooo traumatizing that you couldn’t do it, even for the purpose of providing factual evidence of a supposed hate crime?

Good Lord, what pansies we’ve become!

Did it actually resemble a noose? I think I recall something that was just a simple loop (no tightening mechanism) but I could be wrong.

and surely it was not an actual hanging quality/size rope.

I recall when I started teaching high school back in 2001 - My room had a pulldown projection screen with a cord that was way too long hanging in front of the blackboard.

I absentmindedly/jokeishly fashioned it into a noose to take up the slack = thinking to myself the 'law of the west' imagery from Langtry, TX. I NEVER ever, not once, did I relate it to lynching black people - although that certainly actually happened during the era of my youth.

Had 30 % black students - and it hanged there for two years before it even dawned on me that someone MIGHT take offense to it. There may have been some racial event that took place that brought it into focus for me. So I took it down without comment - from anyone.

Today, I'd probably be fired, beaten up, arrested for hate-crime, or worse for that dire offense. I mean it was a functioning noose made from 1/8th inch cordage.

Lucky to be alive and without a police/coroner record.
