Austin lawyer appears to claim credit for “white people” stickers
Austin lawyer Adam Reposa appears to claim that he is responsible for the “Exclusively for White People” stickers that appeared on the windows of East Austin businesses Wednesday.
“Why I did it is pretty clear because it would be obvious that even though people know the real problem — and the problem is people without money are getting (expletive) — they’re getting pushed out, and pretty quick, this area of town is turning into whites only — not by law like it used to be,” a shirtless Reposa says in a video posted on YouTube on Thursday. ” Everyone’s going to jump on, ‘That’s racist, that’s racist.’ Man, this town the way (expletive) works is racist.”
Reposa could not immediately be reached for comment.
