A 30-year-old Texas businessman and owner of Boundaries Coffee in suburban Dallas, Daniel Keene, faced severe backlash after posting a video on X in early September showing a local Ganesh Chaturthi procession. In the now-deleted post, he criticised Indian immigrants and called for ending H-1B visas, stating, "We have to cancel the H-1Bs. I want my kids to grow up in America. Not India." The post went viral, leading to his expulsion from his church and gym, significant business losses, and alleged extortion threats. Despite the controversy, Keene remains unapologetic, claiming his intent was to highlight the policy's real-world impact.
His post quickly attracted backlash from Indian American communities, many of whom accused Keene of xenophobia and religious intolerance. The video, reportedly shot by his wife, showed a religious street procession that temporarily blocked their path while driving through the neighbourhood.
After the outrage on social media, elders at Keene's Baptist church reportedly asked him to apologise for what they described as a "sinful" act.

That’s pretty cold blooded, to run the guy out of his church. (Small c).
Find a new church and find a new gym. Simple.
While the Indians build temples to worship blue Smurf gods who look like elephants and octopuses.
He belonged to the wrong church, but this is another reason I don’t attend church anymore. Too much political correctness.
People are just starting to stand up and they aren’t going to stop standing up. The landscape has changed.
Exactly.
Charlie Kirk was a moderate and they killed him.
Time for some repatriation of aliens who faked our system.
Reverse queer marriage.
Arrest Obama and Biden.
Yes. Especially with the midterms next year.
Indian immigrants are more noticeable that Mexicans. There is a shockingly large number of Indians in America.
No doubt that some weasel who had a different opinion reported him to the church and the gym to get him kicked out or to intimidate him into keeping quiet.
I’ve seen it happen.
Go ahead and post all the copyrighted stuff you want.
It’s apparently now yours and marcus’s site, and I no longer care.
And I’m contributing just as much as you two, financially. 😉😂😂
MIGA!
I thought you lived in Mumbai.
>> And he got canceled in Texas?
DFW metroplex isn’t Texas.
It’s a polyglot mess.
Thx...
Just like that. 😁
Wow US Citizens are second class citizens in our own country.
Thanks for posting this.
I hope the Boundaries Coffee stores are doing a booming business. I know I’d be buying from them if I were in the area.
This shows you what we are up against. This immoral invasion had gone on so long Indians think it is their right to work and move to the USA. What a f’g doormat country this is:
“ It’s over you are going back.”
I love that!
