you should read nothing into variations of the noose. Any noose is the same to me, other than I try to find aesthetically pleasing ones. Also, they are not threats at all. They are editorial commentary on the worthiness of a post and/or poster. They communicate maximum contempt, and they were used often on the now defunct NWP as such. Similar to the NWP convention " Hels Yourself" Hels being a poster who tried to kill himself by driving into oncoming traffic, right at a semi. He lived, but the NWP community offered him no sympathy as he endangered the lives of others in his suicide attempt. As a token of their contempt for Hels, the term "Hels yourself" became as a synonym for suicide.
