Thursday morning when UPS Freight worker Keefe A. was unloading a trailer this is what he says he found.

"I was unloading a trailer today and upon unloading the trailer I came upon a noose in the trailer."

UPS Workers Claim Racial Incident
 
Well if it is the backend of the pup,possibly the culprit may have been seen on camers.I guess Al Sharpton will be there on Monday with a gang of reporters since he and Newt Gingrinch are touring the country on an education blitz!!!!
 
What ever get a grip .It looks like a leftover tiedown that was used to secure someones shipment.

It looks like a terminal to terminal BS story to me. People trying to get under another ones skin but not a certain person. Grow up people!!!
 
Some people (like the REVEREND jackson, and that sharpton twit) are just looking for something to scream racism about. Like jackson saying if you dont want the government takeover of health care then you aint black.
 
Problem is it made the NEWS. Doesnt matter what it really is, if the Media can get a story out of it, they will. Thats how they make their $$$.
 
From the height of the said noose,the said dockworker would have had to been very short for it to be effective...lmao
I have used rope and mule tape in this manner many times to secure top heavy freight and that oh so ugly Sunsetter to prevent damage..
It's common practice...
Grow up Memphis!

This is beyond ridiculous. My favorite part is when the dockworker says "They didn't call the cops or nothing they just swept it under the rug." So this idiot wanted to bring all work to a stop to call the Police to report a rope in a freight trailer .Its all about this lawsuit they keep talking about .you know they smell $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Just go to work. The news media is a joke . Must have been a slow news day in TN.
 
from what i have seen, memphis is the worst UPS freight terminal that there is

they are the same terminal that will load a 600 lb corrosive drum on top on a high value skid, with no dunnage, not braced at all

and i agree, I HATE SUNSETTERS, but the "noose" might of been used to keep one of them from moving
 
What ever get a grip .It looks like a leftover tiedown that was used to secure someones shipment.

I agree!

Memphis is a FedEx town, anything to make UPS look bad is put on the front page. This is were the workers were "forced" to write letters to there comgressmen/women. FedEx probubly gave 2 million to help the newspaper build there latest printing press, ........ UPS dose the same. Its all about the money!!
 
this is just ridicules, next time I see a bag of cement, I'm calling the police.
That would be in reference of the mob using "Cement shoes" to get rid of bodies.
Since I have a Sicilian bloodline, I have a right to be offended and afraid for my life.
 
Hey
Let's all leave a comment at the bottom of the memphis news paper page,there is a post a comment at the bottom of the page...
Let them know ropes are a common thing when securing freight....thats why we have D rings....if you notice in the pics,that pup did not have D rings.
Keep it clean and right to the point
