A convenience store in New Mexico , U.S, has sparked
outrage with it's racist signpost that read 'Obama and other Muslims not
allowed here', with reports saying the owner of the convenience store is a
proud KKK member and also a Donald Trump fanatic.
According to reports, the store also sells Barack
Obama tissue paper, but he hasn't been arrested or charged yet, as no official
police complaint has been made.
One of the signs on the shop also read “Kill Obama”
and another says “Obama & Muslims not welcome here.”
The signs also read “2012 No Re-nig.” A sign aimed
at NFL player Colin Kaepernick, who has protested about police brutality
against black people, called the San Francisco 49ers quarterback an “overpaid
half breed” and said he should “go back to Africa.”
“Colin Kaeper-d**k, you overpaid half-breed: Take
your millions and go back to Africa,” the sign read.
Ibrahim Hooper, national communications director of
the Council of American-Islamic Relations [CAIR], said:
'While everyone has the First Amendment right to
free speech even offensive speech we urge the store's owner to remove the sign
in the interest of common decency and of our nation's unity at a time of
increasing divisions.'
CAIR revealed there were more than 900 anti-Muslim
incidents since Donald Trump was elected, including Muslim women being targeted
and mosques being threatened.
The racist sign is on the window of Mayhill
convenience store that is reportedly owned by Kevin Crouch.
