Maggie Valley Inn owners say 'no regrets' after posting divisive sign (ACAB--All Cops Are Bastards)

MAGGIE VALLEY, N.C. (WLOS) — Two owners from a Maggie Valley Inn are going viral after posting what some are calling a gross message on their kiosk.

"Right now, the kiosk says ACAB, the barrel is rotten," Kitty Currin said.

She and her husband Cody Currin have run the Our Place Inn in Maggie Valley since 2015, but it’s only recent that the inn’s online presence has really exploded.

"Last that I checked, our post had reached 100,000 people,” Kitty Currin said. “So, while it's a little bit of an extreme acronym, I would say it's reached a lot of people a lot faster than anything else we've done.”

"It's basically an acronym that's come up because of years of people suggesting we need police reform, and we've done it politely,” Kitty Currin said. "It's basically an acronym that's come up because of years of people suggesting we need police reform, and we've done it politely,” Kitty Currin said.

Which is why they said this type of message was needed.

“It’s basically an acronym that’s come up because of years of people suggesting we need police reform, and we’ve done it politely”

She doesn’t even where the acronym comes from. It’s an acronym that skinheads in Britain came up with back in the 1970s during their riots and fighting with “the bobbies”. Later adopted by the antifa and black brigade types who also like to riot and fight with police at every opportunity.

Bastards are usually a result of unmarried parents having a child.

These two are self-made ones.

I’d say that you might see a motel in Maggie Valley up for sale.... I guess they want CRIMINALS staying there... not lawmen...

I imagine with a little digging around it would be revealed that they are Antifa/Black Lives Matter sympathizers. That would go over like a fart in an elevator around there.
