Alabama store sign - BBQ Pork Resturant(sp) Safest No Muslims Inside
Edited on Fri Dec-10-10 04:56 PM by RamboLiberal


The fuss over a sign in Alabama at an electronics store reading "BBQ PORK RESTURANT (sic) IS SAFEST NO MUSLIMS INSIDE" shocked its longtime owner who said he doesn't understand why it's such a big deal.

Electronic Repair Company owner Chuck Biddinger, who put up the sign last week, said he meant the message as a joke. After all, he said, it wasn't even the most offensive one he had ever posted.

That award goes to a sign he posted last May that read "A dog is wiser than a woman - it does not bark at its master," earned heat from domestic violence groups in Alabama.

"The women's groups went ballistic," he told the Daily News when he picked up the phone at his East Lake, Ala., shop.

The sign is just this bigot's idea of funny.

8. Exactly. The owner is an attention-seeking douchebag.
Repairing sewer cams gets tiresome, so he needs to stir up a little excitement. He's the type who wants to fight with his cousin-girlfriend on Jerry Springer.

7. It's genuine - the misspelling proves it.
