heywoodu 13,500 Posted June 23, 2020 #111 Share Posted June 23, 2020 So the noose in Wallace's garage most likely wasn't actually a noose, but something used as part of the garage for a while...it was already there last year as well FBI cleared that up. Olympian1010 and Monzanator 2 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Monzanator 3,569 Posted June 23, 2020 #112 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Epic failure Obviously the liberals and progressives will walk it back like nothing happened Or maybe FBI should be dissolved now? Same BS nonsense like the Jussie Smollett case. intoronto 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people will be happy with the response NASCAR took in the end. They made a very strong stand on what they see as the values of their sport, and they investigated the issue throughly. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

I was talking more about premature judgement on social media in "we know it all and we are always right" style. All these #DefundNASCAR tags look extremely stupid right now. Even the progressives can't win all the battles and this is one where they totally lost. As for the Josh Moon tweet, hindsight wisdom counts for nothing IMO. Now everyone will try to bail out in "oh, we knew all along it was a pull rope on the door instead of a noose". No, you didn't.

They flew a banner over the race with the Confederate flag on it with that hashtag. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

At the end of the day the progressives lost this battle and the noose hoax suits them right IMO.

However, I came to the opinion that what’s important is a side I hate lost a political battle that I don’t understand.” That’s real enlightened ? Have you actually seen a picture of the pull ropes? They are absolutely tied in the style of noose. I’m not saying that’s on purpose, I’m just saying that I could easily see how one could mistake a broken one for a noose. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

By definition, you have to pull on it for it to work, and once you’ve pulled on it, it ceases to be a noose. That’s how hangings work. But if what you say is true, why haven’t we seen a photo of the actual knot? Why wasn’t that on every front page in America? I suggest It’s because the knot is the size of something you use to catch rabbits, not hang humans, and everyone would know that once they saw it, making the hoax too obvious to take seriously.
