How evil is the NY Times?

From the seal story: "It features a Native American in a breechcloth and an early American settler holding a long rope with what appears to be a loop on its end"

They insinuated the "loop" was to hang people, then mentioned "BLM" shortly after.

They went on later in the story (which a lot people won't get to just reading the headline and first sentence of many stories.... like myself) to explain, while STILL (this part is amazing) insinuating that it might have been something used to attack black people.

the loop is a eye spliced rope , a Bow line , as in it is a deep water port that you can sec cure your vessel to the pier. for loading and unloading. a safe harbor would have been a huge thing in 1625


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Annnnd the Daily News piles on. These people make me sick.

Think of the logic.... "We're going to make a seal for the largest city in the country that infers the hanging of black people." It's so wrong and incorrect it's not even funny.
