It did not.

How low do you have to be to falsely accuse a man of racism?

Yes, I've stated that ALL of our opinions are speculation. You don't have to restate what I've obviously already determined. And you thinking that "it did not" is speculation, as well. Hello.

To some, the idea is as ridiculous as you NOT seeing the act as racist. As I've stated REPEATEDLY, you NOR anyone else knows his true intent. So you can't emphatically say "it did not." In YOUR opinion, it didn't. We have NO idea what the man was thinking when he decided to tie the chair to the tree. So please stop.

I'm as low as YOU perceive me to be. Frankly, my dear, I don't care.

That is too bad. You should care about not being seen as a slanderer.

I know that - you have said it twice.

Are you just demonstrating that you can construct a rhyme?

Yes, sure. If that's what YOU perceive it to be.

Snarky, are we?

I'm done playing these pointless reindeer games with you. You're making me tired.

I've made my point.

Which was?

Or are you playing a home game of dice?

I will bet on Don't Pass.

Interesting. I feel the same. I see it as a weird looking chair hanging in a tree. I wonder how many see it as racist, and of those, why?

Now, if it were a black manniquin hanging in a tree, that's pretty obvious it's meant to suggest black man/women with a noose around their necks.
