Gross. When will the media be responsible for perpetuating unfounded stories? Absolutely disgusting and upsetting.
I agree with that man, just tell the truth. If you need to lie to prove your point your point is invalid.

Thats pretty interesting about the noose cause its kinda stealthy isnt it? Like what a better shape to have for a rope-pull than a noose but to put it inside Bubba's garage all hidden like that. Its that covert racism, subjective, open to interpretation.

No , not really it was hanging right there in the front of the shop , obvious as fuck . I find it hard to believe no one noticed . I think it’s more likely that racism is such a big part of the culture no one cared . Bubba probably saw it and just decided to mind his own business .

Imagine how awkward it would be to be the only Black driver among a motor-sport with so much racism attached to it. Must fuckin suck.

It was stoic with the other drivers walking beside his car. What a bummer that the story behind it is so convoluted. All those good gestures don't mean as much now.

Not ta mention all the trannies and (fuel pump) eccentrics there.
-------------------- “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

Apparently Mississippi banned their use of the Confederate flag too: https://www.ibtimes.com/richmond-removing-confederate-statues-mississippi-retires-state-flag-3004067
Unreal Even states are following suit.

Sure, states like Mississippi will do away with some statues and flags. Ask them to reform their unjust laws/criminal justice system and see what happens.

True. But considering Mississippi's and Virginia's deeply-rooted racist past, in my opinion, its a huge gesture to ban the Confederate Flag and for Virginia to take that those statues.
Will these symbolic gestures lead to real social change considering systematic racism in the South? Well, only time will answer that question...
