'Stop blaming white people' sign causes stir at N.J. post office

The United States Postal Service said it is investigating a racial sign put up outside its Flemington location.

USPS Postal Inspector Greg Kliemisch said Friday afternoon the sign, which read "March is national stop blaming white people month! Accept responsibility for your own bad choices. Hug a white person!," was put up sometime Thursday. It was taken down in the afternoon by employees, he said.

Kliemisch said posting signs on the building is strictly prohibited. He could not confirm whether or not the location had cameras outside the building that captured the incident.

The sign is similar to messages in memes that have been posted online over the past several years.

Flemington Councilwoman Betsy Driver chastised the sign on the "Flemington Forward" public Facebook group. Another resident had posted a photo of the sign on a private page, but later deleted the post, she said.

I've already copied and emailed that sign everywhere!

Maybe some enterprising person will buy a billboard or two and post it in every inner city interstate highway!!!!!

It wouldn’t be a problem if we had free speech.

Unfortunately, due to the poor publik edyookayshun system in America, many will probably read that as “MUG a white person.”

“Stop Blaming Other People” would be a good message as well.

That sign should be on every restroom stall door.

Captive audience.

Where would some people be if they couldn’t blame whitey? Jesse Jackson would have to get a real job instead of suing everyone for being white.

Dear Tiamoyo, I am pretty sure this person did not chastise a sign.

Flemington Councilwoman Betsy Driver chastised the sign on the "Flemington Forward" public Facebook group...

"The fact that somebody even put the sign up is just sad and not a reflection of our town," Driver said. Racism is not a laughing matter."

So anyone who isn't filled with all-consuming hatred for white people is a racist.
