Bill Would Outlaw Nooses in Public

[stephanie]

:rolleyes:

Hanging a noose in public could be against the law under a bill filed by a black state lawmaker, a reaction to recent intimidating uses of the lynching symbol.

The bill, filed last week, would prohibit a person from placing a noose in a public place, on the property of another without written permission of the owner or in an exhibit of any kind with the intention of intimidating another person.

Violating the proposed law could lead to up to a year in jail.

The bill's sponsor, Sen. Larcenia Bullard, D-Miami, said Thursday there is a movement among several black advocacy groups to have similar laws adopted in every state.

Can they outlaw Code Pink also, those freaks are intimidating.

[actsnoblemartin]

that is an excellent point.

They are being very politically correct, lets only ban some things that offend some people

how about we just ban everything, so no one is offended?

How about a ban on black people appearing in public? Because they offend me.

I knew a CSM that managed the Army motel-hotel for Fort Lee and among his duties were management of the staff that cleaned and made up the rooms... the workforce was almost all black and he would call them into his office for pay raises and for negative counseling and would hang up a root over the door to his office... They would refuse to enter and he would tell them I'm not going to give you a raise or I'll fire you if you don't and they wouldn't enter... He said his dad used the same method to keep them out of his watermelons and corn corps as a kid. Something to do with voodoo

I mean there were whites that were also lynched if you go back and study the lynching history. Anyways its just a knot on a rope so who cares.... They need to get over it already. We don't owe the blacks shit. Just because some of our ancestors made them slaves doesn't mean that we own them anything. Doesn't mean that I was the one who made them a slave. They got freed fine dandy just FUCKING DROP IT ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!
