“Exclusively For White People” Signs Popping up In Texas

If a place was going to do it, it had to be Texas. But hold on to your horses, don’t go riding off into the sunset just yet. It seems these signs, displayed on various stores and restaurants, are the work of a few racist people and not sanctioned by the city of Austin ot anyone in power – at least that’s what Austin’s mayor, Steve Adler, said.

“This is an appalling and offensive display of ignorance in our city,” Adler said in a statement. “Austin condemns this type of hurtful behavior. Our city is a place where respect for all people is a part of our spirit and soul. We will keep it that way.”

Bearing a striking resemblance to the official logo of the Texas capital,  the stickers demands that only a “maximum of five colored customers” are allowed in the store at any given time with exception given of course, to “colored” store employees. And below that, the words… “sponsored by the City of Austin” is proudly displayed.

At least eight stores showed the sticker. They have since took those stickers down.
