NASCAR reveals pic of noose, concern was 'real'
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
NASCAR released an image of the noose that was found in the garage of the No. 43 team of Bubba Wallace at Talladega Superspeedway, saying it had been placed there in October 2019 but that it was unable to determine who tied the rope and why it was done.

Sorry MAGA, that looks like a noose.
it is a noose. somebody went to a lot of trouble just to tie a loop for the garage door...
Round up the pyschics! Someone knew last year that Bubba Wallace would be randomly assigned a garage bay in 9 months.
Someone knew what they were doing and had practice at doing it.
So you are with the Oakland mayor who thinks the exercise ropes put up by a black man to swing from are acts of terror?
Troublesome knots are the real problem facing America!
not when they're around the right necks...
"The hangman's knot or hangman's noose (also known as a collar during the Elizabethan era) is a knot most often associated with its use in hanging a person. For a hanging, the knot of the rope is typically placed under or just behind the left ear, although the most effective position is just ahead of the ear, beneath the angle of the left lower jaw. The pull on the knot at the end of the drop levers the jaw and head violently up and to the right, which combines with the jerk of the rope becoming taut to wrench the upper neck vertebrae apart. This produces very rapid death, whereas the traditional position beneath the ear was intended to result in the mass of the knot crushing closed (occluding) neck arteries, causing cessation of brain circulation. The knot is non-jamming but tends to resist attempts to loosen it."
"Each additional coil adds friction to the knot, which makes the noose harder to pull closed or open. When Grover Cleveland was the sheriff of Erie County, he performed two hangings. Cleveland was advised by a more experienced Sheriff to grease the rope with tallow and run it through the knot a few times to ensure rapid closure with the drop. The number of coils should therefore be adjusted depending on the intended use, the type and thickness of rope, and environmental conditions such as wet or greasy rope. Six to eight loops are normal when using natural ropes. One coil makes it equivalent to the simple running knot."
You'll notice this is a classic 7 loop hangman's noose. If this was simply to open or close a garage door a simple running knot or slip knot would have sufficed.
Now this could have been just some random NASCAR mechanic or team employee who was just fascinated with nooses and intentionally tied one for the garage he was working in and it had nothing to do with Bubba, but it's clearly intentionally a hangman's noose.
I went back to the article with the picture of the rope pull from 2019, the ropes don't match, the one from 2019 is not a classic 7 loop noose, the loop is smaller, the rope is lighter, and the one in 2019 is dirtier as what you would find in a garage.
The door pull was only a door pull until Bubba Wallace became involved. Bubba Wallace made the door pull racist simply because of the color of his skin.
Now that is the noose that I first saw on the news. My mistake was thinking it was hanging from a rafter when it was instead in the doorway. Another seed showed a small loop at a bottom of a rope which looks nothing like a noose.
The way the knot is tied is definitely a noose. If you wanted a simple door pull you wouldn't put that many loops in the knot (those loops do the job in the neck breaking and/or strangulation).
