When will the media say what the investigation turned up?? Answer...NEVER. It doesn't fit the current narrative. And people wonder why many Americans don't believe half of what is reported...I sure as he** don't and I consider myself an intelligent person and am able to discern fact from propaganda spin.

They reported on the Fan this morning that nascar came to Wallace saying there has been a noose put in your garage. Sounds like someone is trying to cover for something. The original report was that a crew member found it, removed it and reported/gave it to NASCAR officials. I remember as a kid many decades ago trying to make nooses that would tighten and weight would be applied. It wasn't a racist thing. Watched a lot of Westerns and saw a lot of bad guys getting hung, so was trying to see how the nooses worked. Could end up being something that innocent here after all is said and done. that's what I'm seeing. a huge nothing burger. I'm trying to play devils advocate here. If Wallace got all up in a tizzy because someone told him there was a noose, that's a big difference than him seeing it for himself. Plus if that was a crew member that did that, he/she should be boat ramped. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/06/full-20284-56717-2020_06_24_8_53_07.jpg)

Ok I'm not going down worm hole. Every last one of them should be boat ramped. I'm not a fan of nascar but have tuned in some with the current sports situation. No longer.

He has not seen it but he vehemently insists it was a "straight up noose" cannot believe the whole group involved doesn't back off of the noose and cop to being hyper sensitive to the current events.
What it was was a loop to put a piece of 1 inch dowel in to make a handle to easily pull up and down.

The guy is really making all of this harder on himself than it should have been. Now he is crying about "how dare the public assault my character and try to accuse me of fraudulently claiming I was targeted" but yet he has ZERO problem assaulting the hundreds of peoples' character there at the garage when he spit out his accusations.
Anyone with true character would have issued an apology saying perhaps I jumped the gun a bit and looking back I owe the people I falsely accused of possibly being involved in this an apology. I was initially upset and acted out of frustration before the facts were investigated. I appreciate how many people stood behind me when we initially thought this was racially motivated and that is proof that we can all come together to support one another in difficult times.
That will never happen though. It's OK because the route he is taking is gonna end his own career.

Nascar and ESPN are headed down that same road that destroyed Sears...Sears at one time was the dominant retailer for appliances,tires,craftsman tools,electonics,casual and work clothes...they catered to the middle and lower class working mostly white people...they forgot who their customer was when they decided to buy expensive small retailers and turn Sears into a Nieman-Marcus/Nordstrom?lord and Taylor type store...they confused their customer and it didn't help when the got rid of all their knowledgeable employees and replaced them with part-timers....those middle and lower class white Trump supporters are still the majority in this country and when they left,Sears started dying....ESPN and nascar better take notice or their only viewers/fans are going to be the bubba Wallace/LeBron James/Kaepernick fans.....and ESPN and nascar are gonna have a tough time staying in business with nothing but Nike shoe ad revenue...

Wallace doubling down on CNN after the FBI said it wasn't a noose is ridiculous.

I would be mad if I went through life called Bubba. It's almost as bad as Booger.

I have never been so disappointed in NASCAR and many of their drivers than I am right now. From Bubba refusing to accept the FBI findings, to the anointing of everything Bubba at Talladega, to the nauseating NASCAR talking heads on NASCAR Race Hub, NASCAR has taken an embarrassing situation and made it worse. NASCAR was so excited about jumping on the BLM bandwagon, they forgot about the fans.

Bubba Smollett will not give up the narrative. Turns out that he is just a race baiting huckster and wannabe victim (not to mention mediocre driver). NASCAR going along with all of this will be their downfall
