Noose Found On Tree
It's a symbol of hate and a symbol that sparked a national uproar in Jena, Louisiana and now that symbol is found hanging from an intersection in Ogle County.

i looked up cult symbols on the internet and you might find what you are looking for under "the cross of questioning" It says that it is not satanic or religious, but was used as a symbol: god reaching down(the cross)with a sickle(the hook)as some sign for the grim reaper. I was interested in the story and thought maybe someone put it up as some halloween prank, but I could be wrong. a similar symbol was used on an old blue oyster cult album years ago.
