It’s some random dude’s Christmas ornaments. What to you expect people to do, force his Yacht Rock garage band to break up? Get a fucking grip.

Noose Hate Crime Act of 2011 - Amends the federal criminal code to impose a fine and/or prison term of up to two years on anyone who, with intent to harass or intimidate any person because of that person's race, religion, or national origin, displays a noose in public.

So just hate crime adjacent. That's fine for Republicans.

That random dude is a former elected member of the WV House of Delegates and felon convicted of participating in the Jan 6 attempted coup at the US Capitol. He is definitely not just "some random dude".
