Do you understand the difference between a noun and a verb?
Do you know why that is relevant?
Will you admit you were hoaxed by this story?

The description originated with the target student, but that doesn't count as "evidence" because coloreds are notoriously simple-minded and unreliable.

Like you guys think there was this plan to hide a noose in the locker room, wait for the first half of practice to be over, commit the crime during the break before the next practice, then go back to practice.
lol @ how easy racists are hoaxed.

And before I ignore you again and keep it that way,
For those not dense, a noose is a lasso, often called such when placing a lasso around a person's neck.
Jerome is of course confusing a honda (loop) knot with a hangmans knot. It's not the knot that makes something a noose but the application. A hangman's knot was used to create a jerking motion to the head when the subject was dropped. It's not required for a noose to function.
A noose is used to hang people, hence the racist connotation with the lynchings by democrats of black people.
Lasso is not used to hang people, nor does it have racial connotations.
Hoax.

Racists sure do get butt hurt when they fall for another race hoax.

Seeing it's around Halloween a slightly longer history of the noose.
The large hangman's knot was used as mass to jerk and hold the head sideways either to snap the neck as in the measured drop (long drop) or to cut off the arteries through a placement of the knot on the left side causing the rope to compress the right side artery, often in the case of the short drop. This was not only seen as humane but prevented flailing and gasping as the rope wasn't meant to cut off the airway, which takes a considerably longer time to kill the person than cutting off blood flow. Done improperly it would cut off airflow instead leading to a drawn out and more ghastly execution. Some think it's to make the rope harder to escape but once weight is put on it, there's no real difference between a slipknot and a hangmans knot besides how it positions the head.
Back when hanging was a common form of execution there was even a science to it, with the measured drop taking into account the weight of the individuals body to produce a snapping of the neck and instant death. Poor calculations or in many cases weight gain in prison after the condemned had been weighed could lead to the snap being too hard and it decapitating the prisoner. While seen as ghastly, an insult to the condemned and a failure, I'm pretty sure they didn't mind the difference. It does make it harder to take souvenir photos with the deceased, which was a thing at one time.
Given lynchings didn't usually use a drop method but instead draged someone up into the air, proper knot placement was more difficult and a hangman's knot was more for show or just 'how it's done' than part of the murder. Some lynching photos show small knots which wouldn't have had the desired effect.
While seen as ghastly, an insult to the condemned and a failure, I'm pretty sure they didn't mind the difference.
Reminds me of an exchange from The Green Mile.

Percy Wetmore: [while tapping Arlen's burned face after being electrocuted] Adios, Chief! Drop us a card from Hell, let us know if it's hot enough...
Brutus "Brutal" Howell: [Brutus grabs Percy's arm and pushes him away from Arlen's body] He's paid what he's owed; he's square with the house again, so keep your goddamn hands off him!

I don't know how many times you need this explained to you, Ari. If the rope has a small knot, then those weren't lynchings at all, they were lassoings and, as such, it really goes without saying, most assuredly Not Racist.

lol No hangman's knot on the left side, therefore no racism. Not sure what the protocol is for speciesism hoaxes.

Yesterday on my way home on the subway in Manhattan around 5pm. A young white man dressed in a button up shirt and suit jacket came up to me. He grabbed me by my ass and pulled me close to him. He then said, “You’re hot. You should just stay in the bedroom, where you belong.” I lost it. I punched him in the face and yelled “Don’t you ever dare do this to anyone again!” He ran away, shocked and embarrassed.

Baa haaa, they posted one graffiti that was from the anti-trump rioters!!
Why do democrats promote hate and violence? Ohh, that is right, their followers are not very bright, and the end justifies the means.

Strange how most of those stories are coming from heavily democratic areas.

Report doesn't say it was a black guy. Says he was of indeterminate race.
And he was wearing black gloves.
I have personal friends (folks I've known for over 30 years, of Asian ancestry, whose daughter and one-year old grandchild were told, on the day after the election, to go back where they came from. "False flag," my ass. You act as if they were ALL false flags.
