  • snowflakes find plastic wrap on the ground, call police

    http://www.dbknews.com/2017/06/28/um...bias-incident/

    University of Maryland police are investigating a knotted piece of plastic wrap resembling a noose found in the 7500 block of Route 1, near Fraternity Row.

    The wrap was found lying on the ground Tuesday, and reported to university police by two passers-by, according to a statement released to the campus community via email Tuesday night.

    The statement made no mention of the wrap's shape. It noted that police were called "out of concern for possible hate-bias," but did not say whether the matter is being investigated as such.

    "Out of an abundance of caution, we are looking into this matter and conducting a review of our cameras in the area," the email read.

    Students expressed concern about the incident on Twitter, with some alleging that police initially dismissed the wrap as trash.

    They didn’t even try to entertain me and my friend by acknowledging the possibility that this was a symbol of hate. They were very adamant.

    There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

    Get 'em for littering.

      You don't say.
      For the life of me, I cannot see a noose.

        If you see something, say something!
        Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

          I do hope this is a parody story and someone didn't seriously call this in.

            Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

                All this hyperventilating about nooses is only playing into the hands of the idiots putting them up.
                Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

                  The idiots putting them up seem to be pretty much exclusively liberal minorities faking hate crimes.

                      If we're going to play the pareidolia game, that looks more like a cartoonish depiction of a sperm cell.

                          Dylan Roof was for real, and he went rather farther than posting nooses.
