University of Illinois student charged with hate crime over hanging noose in elevator

A student at the University of Illinois was charged with a felony hate crime and disorderly conduct after he allegedly hung a noose inside an elevator in a campus residence building.

Sophomore Andrew M. Smith, 19, was charged Tuesday after the noose was discovered early Sunday morning in Allen Hall.

Champaign County Assistant State’s Attorney Kristin Alferink said that Smith found the rope in the elevator and tied it into a noose on the spot, according to CBS 42. University spokeswoman Robin Kaler said that a woman who claims to have been with Smith at the time came forward to the university.

This guy fell victim to the very popular cultural theme of DEATH WORSHIP.
It is everywhere but especially among tattoos which prominently display skulls, crosses (death instrument), bones, and faces with devil horns.

So this guy thought it might be "cool" to hang a noose (death instrument) in the elevator at school.
Sort of typical behavior in this modern age of Satanism, don't you think?

Here on the shore, our citizens think a "noose" is just a rope with a knot in it. But let them see a post about a person that looks to have gender identity issues, and everyone becomes a bigot. Its sad really. His gender (identity) doesn't have anything to do with the crime.
