Has anyone actually seen this “noose”. Was it a bowline with an extra couple of twists and then interpreted as a noose? About 6 months ago I was thinking of going on my rooftop in GA. I got paracord and googled knots. It was pretty interesting. I made a bunch of knots. I didn’t make a noose, not because of a potential racial connection but because it was more work than I wanted to do. But I was tempted. Glad I didn’t because I would have obviously been a racist if I did so. So to simply make a racial connection to a piece of rope with a complicated knot seems like an intentional stretch. Incidentally, I never went up on the roof. And I recommend getting some rope and learn to make some knots. It was actually fun.
