Nooses found hanging at Mississippi Capitol ahead of runoff between Hyde-Smith and Espy

Two nooses were found hanging at the Mississippi State Capitol on Monday morning around 7:15, according to NBC affiliate WLBT.

Hate signs also were found, although it unclear what they said or if the signs referenced the racially charged runoff Senate election taking place Tuesday between Democrat Mike Espy, who is black, and Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith.

State Capitol police did not immediately respond to multiple requests for comment.

Hyde-Smith has come under fire for her comment about attending a "public hanging" and voter suppression, which her campaign later said was a joke.

3. "Sense of humor"?

I'd have to find it funny first.

Isn't it strange, though, how the media can't quite figure out whether these nooses might have any racist undertones, just like they can't figure out if all those high-spirited boys giving the nazi salute and flashing white power signs are being racist or not. It's just so confounding!

But they know for a fact the complete history - political, familial, and criminal - of each and every refugee heading north, and they're all bad hombres like the president says. Even the muchachos.

4. It's economic anxiety, of course.

I'll never get over how fucked up that whole white working class/economic anxiety narrative is.
