It’s become increasingly tiresome for me, particularly after writing this a few weeks ago, to publicize all of the random noose hangings sweeping the nation with more posts. They’re all stupid, hateful acts perpetrated by people with a small minds, zero creativity, and way too much time on their hands. But I couldn’t really let this recent noose hanging in Georgia go without mention.
From a press release:
The Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation (TASF) regrets to report that a series of attacks have taken place at the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center for the Arts, 5616 Memorial Drive, Stone Mountain, Georgia. The first incident occurred in the early hours of Saturday, October 20th, when vandals defaced the building as well as tying a noose around the neck of the bronze statue of Tupac Shakur located in the Center’s Peace Garden. The attacks are being investigated as hate crimes by the De Kalb County Sheriff’s Office. The second incident occurred at the Center at 2:00AM Monday morning when the statue was damaged further. A male has been arrested and is currently being held in custody.
Hanging a noose around a dead man’s statue? That’s low. And hateful. And begging for attention — which I just gave! Damn, I said I wasn’t going to do that anymore.
What the fuck is this noose movement shyt going on around this hateful country? Have all white supremacists come together to send a message that they hate us? Guess what? You’ve made that clear over the past 500 years, thank you for this newsflash!
Maybe it’s the same person going around the country doing this shit to send a message. What that message really is I have no idea, nor do I care.
It’s the most cowardly way to express your…rebellion i guess. If you have something to say then just say it so we can crush you and get it over with. This creepin in the night shit is like a high school prank or some shit. Grow some balls, oh wait….yeah you cant!
