I was eating a subway sandwich when two guys in maga hats poured bleach on me and put a noose in my garage. They were wearing masks, but I know they were white because one of them had what appeared to be smeared peanut butter and jelly on his shirt. The other one was singing the wrong lyrics of a Toby Keith song.

Looking at Twitter, I guess what the Outragers are holding on to is the FBI said it was a noose. But we know what they're talking about are those knots on every door pull. So either the FBI is a bunch of white collar city boys who don't know what a noose is (only what one kind of looks like) or they are in on creating the outrage.

But Hill and ESPN are running with the "See, even the FBI said it was a noose!" angle to justify their continued outrage. Someone should really get the FBI to clarify this... but again, maybe they don't actually want to.

So, help me understand the it is a noose crowd. So any rope with a loop that functions as a handle should trigger the word noose in someone's head?

Or, maybe they are just looking anywhere and everywhere to try to find something to be outraged about.

The actual answer is they don't want to admit they were wrong. I saw Marty Smith who is a Nascar guy, right? He's at least super-southern. But he was as adamant as anyone that this was a noose. And there's no way he doesn't know better if he saw the pictures and read the FBI report.

So it's clear that ESPN just wants to keep the outrage going even though they know this story was all a big farce.

Nowhere else to really put this, but if you're sick of censorship on Twitter, there is a new site called Parler. I just joined it and so far (the last 5 minutes) I like it. I am @Iamtdg if anyone wants to follow me.

My family has lived in Madison, a pinko town if there ever was one, since 1976. This is what happens when your mayor is a former student radical from the 1960s.
