When a landowner posts a sign warning intruders to stay off his land after hours..a black man immediately gets offended. Do you see anything RACIST about this sign? Me neither. Still, there are others who only see color when it comes to their fragile sensibilities. Check it out:
VIA| Terrance Reed was instantly offended when he saw what looked to be three nooses hanging from a tree on a plot of land along Highway 75, according to KFOR. He pulled his vehicle to the shoulder to read the small sign nailed to the tree.
“IT’S BEST NOT TO BE HANGING AROUND THIS AREA AFTER DARK,” THE SIGN READS.
Although there was no mention of any particular demographic or race, Reed automatically assumed the landowner is a racist white man who’s threatening blacks. Unfortunately, Reed was reading too far in between the lines.
“IF YOU THINK OF A NOOSE IN AMERICA, IT DOESN’T REPRESENT ANYTHING BUT WHAT USED TO HAPPEN TO AFRICAN AMERICANS,” HE SAID. “HE GOT THE RIGHT TO DO WHAT HE WANTS TO DO, HE’S GOT A RIGHT TO FEEL WHAT HE WANNA FEEL, BUT I GOT A RIGHT TO BE ANGRY ABOUT IT TOO, AND I’M ANGRY.”
