Here’s another incident where folks are claiming racism because someone has a person hanging in their Halloween decorations:
Black leaders and neighbors say the “hanging man” resembled a black man hanging from a noose and a protest march was being planned.
The homeowners initially said they would not succumb to pressure by the community and police to take it down.
But after a meeting Monday with the mayor, police chief and community leaders, the homeowners have agreed to remove the figure from the noose and incorporate it into the Halloween display.
The figure will be sitting on the house steps with a knife through the heart.
Well, that’s much better. I guess if you stab a fake “black man” in the heart, that’s ok. But let’s not hang him.
