Texan's truck has possibly the most racist decal ever [makes "front page" news]
Houston Chronicle ^ | October 17, 2014 | Kolten Parker

This Texan takes bumper stickers to a whole new level.

A photo of a truck with Texas tags that features on the tailgate one the most racist decals, complete with a real (and fresh) banana, that targets President Barack Obama was posted to Reddit on Thursday.

"Does this Socialist a** make my truck look too big," the decal, which appears to be professionally done, reads. It also includes photo of Obama dressed in Somalian garb from a 2006 meeting in the country.

The image was taken in the East Texas town of Tyler at the intersection of Loop 323 and Highway 155 and posted by Reddit user bluchunks.

I don’t see a racist angle.

The rest of the truck is the color of the Red Skins.

Remember the good ol’ days when President Bush was portrayed as a smirking chimp

I remember that. The liberals were falling all over themselves trying to outdo each other:

You need a “INSURED BY SMITH & WESSEN” sticker.

The Associated Press and Clintons are racists?

I like. I just hope the truck doesn’t get damaged by some rabid leftist.

That was the first thing I thought of too. I wish the guy would park the truck in his driveway, hide in the bushes and wait for some a$$ hole to try that, then dish out a little street justice.

It would’ve been perfect without the banana.

The Barnicle puts this *article* on the front page (sidebar online), yet buries the one and only article I could find on the lezbo Mayor’s 1st Amendment sermon censoring overreach. Figures.

Houston must be a veritable paradise if this item is front page news.

In what way is this “racist”? Maybe the author can explain why, because it needs explaining.

"already posted earlier"

Why is that a problem? Once items are posted, depending on the number of posts, they quickly drop way down the queue and become virtually invisible, unless you are willing to spend all day scrolling down to old posts. I see no problem with the same story being posted every few hours.

I got in a huge argument with my liberal sister about five years ago when I was banned from the Seattle Times website for calling Obama a chimp. I explained that, for years, the Times had allowed people to call Bush a chimp and a monkey. My sister said, “That’s different, because of the historical racism that associated blacks with monkeys and apes.” I said, “BS. What’s good enough for Bush is good enough for Obama.”

Rearending him on purpose? Now that’d sure be good for one’s insurance.

Even the truck in the Walmart parking lot, those not liking it will assume this guy is armed and plenty PO’d already.

Betcha he gets lots of HONKS of approval.
