I think it's a joke that they can call this racist. I agree with the bar owner.

People need to get a life. Comments on life should not come under fire like this. The people complaining about this are what's wrong with America today.

Ridiculous.

I'm fed up with political correctness. There's people out there tht are way too overly sensitive, and just need to stay at home, and watch the home shopping network all day, and possibly rub one out every once in awhile

there is no way that that was racist

That black lady was pissed because some of the stuff hit home with her. It isn't racist, it is just telling people to get off their lazy ass and pull their weight in society and not to be a burden. I totally agree.

TheBlizzard · 07-25-2007

The only people that are getting offended are the people that the signs apply to. Who gives a fuck, if people want to be low life bottom feeders and suck off society they should feel guilty.

Why the hell do some black people think general statements are directed towards them all the time?! Always whippin' out the race card and slappin' someone in the face with it.

Matt D. · 07-25-2007

That black lady stereotyped herself by admitting that those signs bothered her. There's a reason it's called a stereotype, that shit wasn't just made up.

NOT THE BLUE LAMPSHADE · 07-25-2007

I swear to god that when some people see things like that guy's sign, they just literally see "******s, mexicans, and other immigrants are imposing on society in all negative means, so fuck off."

Fuckin' uneducated, uninformed, non-literate, welfare peddling, lazy, stupid people in this country.

**1ViciousGSX** · 07-25-2007

The sign is right on the money. It's time to stop blaming everybody and everything in the world as somebody else's fault or racist. Racist are the one's who keep racism alive. That sign is not slanderous, racist or anything else, but it is correct.

TheBlizzard · 07-25-2007

The way I look at it he is just demonstrating the same freedom of speech that Mexicans and other immigrants display when they fly their respective flags in the United States.

Personally I think that if you live in the United States then you should not be able to fly your native coutries flag. If you are so proud of your country and want to display then fucking go back there if its so great.

TheBlizzard · 07-25-2007

The only reason it seems racist is that most of the stereotypes that were depicted have a select few groups that fall under those categories.

For example that black lady should have said, "I am fine with the signs, I am a hard working American and I do not prey off society". Instead she pulls the 'poor black lady' attitude and makes herself look like the guy should have a picture of her next to that fucking sign.

Exactly, isn't that the point of your flag in your yard? I thought that the "immigrants" leave their country to find bigger and better things here, so why the fuck fly your flag?!??!

You're sure as hell not about to see some Nigerian or Romanian with their flag in their yard here. Only a Mexican flag, which I may add, THER ARE EVERYWHERE!!!

There is nothing wrong with that sing or any other ones that lady mentioned. He can put up whatever he wants and people just need to get over their selves, and if they are "hurt" by it, maybe its because there is truth to it....

Welfare is great! I was on welfare when i came to USA back in '93.

It helped my family greatly, we were able to get an apartment to live in, and have medical coverage and food on the table for the first few months while we were here. We were on welfare for total of 4 months, both mom and dad started working within 3 months after getting here, it was a minimum wage job, so they both had to work, one whole salary went to rent, the other was for food. But we were off welfare within 3 months, and the extra check and food stamps we got we paid it back, we used it and then found out we had to pay it back.

Hopefully the deadbeats don't destroy welfare, because it is a great temporary solution to help families that are in need rather than deadbeats. They should put in limits and cutoff dates to it, that is all.

If my family could relocate to another country and start a new life, they can get out of their enviroments and start their own lives too while on welfare and start a new job, they already speak English my family didn't! so they have advantage already.

Exactly. She's just pissed off because she knows the stereotypes
