I dunno. A peel in a tree sounds like the work of Skinner.

Good one!

Anyone remember the "banana splits" children's tv show?

One banana, two banana, three banana, four... Four bananas make a bunch and so do many more...

Ahhh, crap! Now how do I get that song outta my head? :P

These snowflakes would love to see this country go back to the Jim Crow era, lynchings by the KKK, and even slavery. That way they can have real racial issues to fight but now they're reduced to whining about a banana peel in a tree

I'm to the point of being nauseated by these mewling freaks who respond to everything by being hurt, frightened, upset, etc.  They seem to be walking open wounds.

If they could find a single testicle to share among them, it might help a little.

Was the offending fruit part merely draped over a tree limb,  or was it affixed to a tiny noose with a message pinned to it reading "Alpha Omegas lack a peel"?

In the course of my nearly seventy years on this earth, I've seen a number of strewn banana peels lying here and there.  Nobody I knew associated those peels with some sort of nefarious message meant for black people. Nobody I knew ever said anything about them. They were just banana peels/litter that some cluck had thrown on the ground.
I have to believe many millions of  black people over the centuries have seen strewn banana peels without freaking out. I assume a percentage of black people have themselves strewn banana peels.
So why the outrage now?  Are millennial's feelings that fragile? If these people can be "triggered" by the mere sight of a banana peel, what has our country descended to?

Well, yeah, but this one was up in a tree, obviously conferring nefarious and sinister intent to it.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Yup.  Sid and Marty Kroft.  I guess Barry White got his break as a songwriter on the show.
