‘It’s Okay To Be White’ Signs Pop Up In Fort Worth Neighborhood
CBS Dallas / Fort Worth ^

Posted on 11/05/2018 12:37:31 PM PST by Cubs Fan

FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) — People in one north Fort Worth neighborhood woke up Thursday morning to several signs with a head-scratching message on them.

The signs were posted up and down Waverly Lane on lamp posts and other pieces of public property and read “It’s okay to be white.”

The origin of the signs and the intended meaning of the words are a mystery, but some neighbors were quick to react and took them down because some perceived them to be discriminatory.

At this point, no one knows if the signs were meant as a prank or something more serious.

Councilman Cary Moon, who represents the district, said this all comes on the heels of a report sent to council members about other anti-immigrant and discriminatory signs and banners placed in other parts of the city.

“I condemn any type of literature sign that is posted that may be offensive to some folks,” Moon said.

By lunchtime Thursday, all of the signs were taken down, but Moon advised neighbors who see more of the same to call police immediately so they can investigate.

He said people taking them down themselves might interfere with investigations and collection of evidence.

Good music from the 1970’s. I have that CD.

Far better than what passes as “music” these days.

There are plenty of people who don’t think it’s OK to be white.

[The stupid is becoming so strong in this world...]

I say it’s spirit of antichrist. IMHO

Take a long look at some of the Leftists and many of them are anti-Christian, anti-Bible, etc.

Again, IMHO.

Yes it is. I see their comments at Yahoo.

Some of them are really off-the-charts.

We shouldn’t need signs to tell us this.

We shouldn’t fear the repercussions of stating it.

The conclusion that we cannot escape is that there is real and pervasive racism against white people.

It’s very offensive that anyone believes that it isn’t OK to be white when obviously anyone is white WAS BORN THAT WAY.

Your humble opinion is becoming more factual daily.

These God-hating leftists thirst for blood.

They’ve been lied to for 10 years by Hillary, Barack and the liberal media.

Their skulls are full of mush. It’s mind-boggling to see.

A friend of ours lives in Las Vegas. Amongst the many Trick or Treaters was a Black guy with his three little kids.

They were dressed as well dressed as White People (the Father and Kids, her description), including “whiteface”.

My Friend said their Costumes were great and when she opened the door she couldn’t stop laughing along with the Trick or Treater Family.

“I condemn any type of literature sign that is posted that may be offensive to some folks,” Moon said.

So you're saying that if a a NAACP or a La Raza or a American Communist Party sign were to pop up and I found them to be offensive you'd have them removed? Is that what you mean?
