BBC News - FBI investigating noose found in garage of black US racing driver
Wallace, the sole full-time black driver in US motor-racing organization Nascar, successfully pushed to ban the Confederate flag from races.
The flag has been a common sight at Nascar circuits but for many it remains a symbol of slavery and racism.

A very long time ago in Idiot America we had racists who would hang African Americans from a tree. We made some progress since those days but racism has not been eradicated.
An interesting fact: Those racists who attacked and killed black people were Christians.
Also, the slave owners were Christians.
Christians are stupid fucking assholes.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
