FBI Says Noose Found in Bubba Wallace’s Garage Was There for Months

Bubba Wallace
The Federal Bureau of Investigation said today that a noose found Sunday in the garage stall of Nascar driver Bubba Wallace had been there for months, and did not appear to have been a noose targeting Wallace.

The FBI and U.S. Attorney Jay Town of Alabama’s Northern District said that agents had reviewed video evidence showing the presence of the noose since at least October 2019, well before the stall was assigned to Wallace ahead of the planned start of the race at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday.



“Although the noose is now known to have been in garage number 4 in 2019, nobody could have known Mr. Wallace would be assigned to garage number 4 last week,” they said in a joint statement. It is unclear why a noose had been in the garage for so long. Nascar, in a statement, referred to it as a “garage door pull rope fashioned like a noose.”

“We appreciate the FBI’s quick and thorough investigation and are thankful to learn that this was not an intentional, racist act against Bubba,” Nascar said.

So it looks like the Only Blacks Matter gang will not be able to protest this noose incident, but they are creative and logic and facts aren't the dominating themes right now.

  1. Another hoax! I know there must be genuine racial incidents, but it appears that the hoaxes outnumber them by at least ten to one.

    How strange it must be to live your life looking for ways to be offended, to be a victim. How can anyone choose that path and still have any self respect? It's pathetic.

    1. I disagree - I would say 99.99% of White-on-Black hate crimes are hoaxes. Black-on-White hate crimes, however, are out of control, but they are almost never counted as hate crimes.

  2. How, by any stretch of the imagination, can that straight piece of rope be called a noose? Oh, I know, someone must have undone the noose!
