Was the sign so small that she had to be close to read it? If so, why no verbal threats? If not a small sign, why did no one else see it?<BR/><BR/>Was the truck reported to campus police the first time? If not, why not? Why wait another week to report it on the second incident? Was the vehicle just sitting there on both occasions, or was it rattling through town with these things on its grill?<BR/><BR/>Why not call from a cell phone to report the second sighting? I'm sure a light blue truck with raccoons hanging from it is a fairly rare sighting and would be easily spotted by police alerted to its presence.<BR/><BR/>Any racist who made a sign to threaten an African American would not call them "black people." They would use the full force of the "N" word.<BR/><BR/>I'm not doubting it could have occured and I know hate crimes do occur (too often), but I also know people sometimes make accusations to get attention or for other motives. And I know you probably don't have the answers to the questions I'm asking.<BR/><BR/>I'm just sayin' I think there might be more to this story than we know. It smells fishy to me.
