I'm just shocked that with all the coverage out there yesterday that we didn't see this plastered all over the news last night. I watched for hours it seems and not one image showed it.

I saw a picture of it yesterday but didn't understand the significance of it. Apparently the crowd was yelling out "Hang Pence."

Bombs around the Capitol too. People can stop
writing this off as harmless tourists already.

Whatever they were or weren't chanting, the noose has a very racist background in this Country. Many black men were hung from trees by white men. The noose is still considered a major form of racism and silent threat against people of color in this Country. That's why pinklady said what she did. |

It’s odd to see so many try to separate themselves from whiteness today.

I saw it on the BBC news yesterday, more than once tracylynn. Odd it wasn’t shown there. |

I did see it, but I think it was on Twitter rather than our news.
I doubt it was put up for Pence...those white racists aren't going to threaten another old white racist man with hanging, nope, they were using it to threaten & intimidate the people of colour within the Democratic party, including (mainly?) VP Harris.
It leaves no doubt about exactly the sort of people these are and that Trump proudly said he loves.

I asked how on earth were they able to get those building materials by any check points? I know! DH and I were kind of amazed by the full-size ladders people had brought in. WTF? |
