Alburquerque restaurant apologizes for and removes insensitive sign. Sigh. Does nobody have a sense of humor anymore?

  • That is actually very witty, but they should have known that it would be not be taken well...

  • For God's sake, is there nothing these unemployed low life pieces of shit won't complain about? It's a restaurant sign, Not a declaration of war. I swear that inbreeding in this country has become a real problem.

  • This was a one day splash on the local news. A couple of snowflakes the local media interviewed said the same old crap about insensitive and racist, most of the people they talked to thought it was catchy and didn't mean anything. Which is why things died down so quick, most people just didn't care.

    • I was hoping we'd hear from a local. Would that sign stop you from eating there or encourage you to try the place? As they say in marketing, "We don't care if people hate the ad, as long as they remember our name."

  • That's too bad. I would have tried the tapanade. I prefer green olives, but I'm not too racist to try the black ones.
