How about:

Guns don't kill people, radical pro-lifers kill people.

Buy a gun, piss off a liberal.

I'm pro choice: I choose to hunt, trap, eat meat, and wear fur.

Vegetarian: Primitive word for lousy hunter.

His next sign attacks virgins:

"To all the virgins in the world, thanks for nothing."

It's on private property. I find it rather humorous......

When isn't the NAACP complaining about something?

That works. Is it to be signed Bill Clinton? Today is the fifth anniversary of the internet exposure of affair Lewinsky.

Actually, this is rather insulting. Why would a businessman go out of his way to offend potential customers, unless he's a bigot? Then again, this is America, and if he wants to publicize his bigoted attitude, that's his business and none of mine. But I don't blame the NAACP for asking the guy to cut it out.

Nah, I just post silly stuff....I don't make calls.
Most are bumper stickers I have seen.....like this one:

Your kid may be an Honor Student,
but YOU'RE still an idiot.

The Mississippi NAACP has created quite a dilemma for Trent Lott. They have vowed to have blacks boycott all white-owned retail stores until Lott resigns from the Senate. The Chamber of Commerce has estimated that if the boycott is successful shoplifting should go down by 97%.

The NAACP really should disband if this is worst "discrimination" they can find. They have served their purpose and are now an anachronism.

Oh would they shut the heck up already. I tell you, the NAACLP has no sense of humor. They're so uptight they can't pass gas from their clymers and laugh along with the rest of us on how ridiculous ebonics is. Someone should ask the NAACLP why they're offended at the thought its racist for blacks to speak normal English all they while they approve of them talking like a bunch of uneducated hicks. Yeah so let em sue me; it doesn't change the basic reality of ebonics one iota.

Target marketing. If his clientele were lisping, limped wristed types like yourself, it would be bad business.

I think it shows sensitivity, reaching out... Like saying "Y'all come in now!" I wish I had thought of that.
