For the umpteenth time a noose was found where a (half) black person lives or works. This time it was a garage for NASCAR driver Darrell”Bubba”Wallace at the Talladega Raceway in Alabama. And for the umpteenth time, it will be proven a hoax.
Thank God the FBI is assisting in the investigation. God forbid they should go after child traffickers or fake Green Cards.
Do I think Wallace did it? No. He has a lot more riding on his career choices than Jussie Smollett. If anything Wallace has deniability. But look at the facts. These garages has hundreds of thousands of dollars of tools parts and equipment as NASCAR is a multibillion dollar sport. All the corporations on Wallace’s overalls pay big money for their logos on cars and coveralls! People working for Richard Petty Motorsports will not leave the garage open. It was an inside job. Either from the Wallace camp, the Petty camp, or NASCAR.
When the news came out, all pit crews and drivers walked behind the famous 43 car on Monday (Sunday was rained out). The news media ate it up and reported it like it was the second coming of Christ.
Before this incident happened, both NASCAR and Wallace had some PR problems. NASCAR banned the Confederate flag. The media painted NASCAR fans as beer bellied Busch swilling racists. Well those people (used to) spend lots of money on NASCAR. Then, Bubba Wallace came out in one race with Black Lives Matter pained on the famous 43, then Bubba wears a t shirt with I can’t breathe on it. Richard Petty or no Richard Petty, people are sick of Black Lives Matter thrown in their faces all day every day.
Then, out of the blue, a noose is found and NASCAR is now the place that fights racial injustice, with Bubba Wallace a victim. Don’t look for people from Manhattan, Northwest DC or San Francisco to drive to Atlanta or Talladega to root for their favorite driver.
