Michigan auto shop's Halloween display that depicted a President Trump scarecrow holding former President Obama’s head by a rope sparks outcry and claims of racism.

The display also showed the Trump scarecrow stepping on the head of a woman resembling Hillary Clinton.

"How is this ok? I am disgusted this is in my hometown," she wrote in a post on the Village of Fowlerville Facebook page."Way to display your ignorance. Democrat or Republican this is just wrong. At least I know who not to do business with.

Huff told the Detroit Free Press the rope was meant to"represent a spine and a move from the game Mortal Kombat."

 

Merci pour votre commentaire. Votre commentaire sera publié après examen.

I don’t like Obama but this is ridiculous.

It’s a great depiction of a loser

People have 1,000,000 reasons to hate Obama. Skin color has NOTHING to do with it.

Boycott that evil place.

This kind of BS is the reason why I am voting for realDonaldTrump and I don’t even like the man!! The black people are mad because he stopped the currency from being changed. I personally wouldn’t have cared because money is money no matter who was on it !!!

Anyone remember the backlash Kathy Griffin got for a similar photo? She was pilloried and raked over the coals - is there a double standard going on here?

I wonder what his yelp looks like

When is this racism crap going to stop it’s getting freaking ridiculous!I’m so sick of the black people crying about every damn thing!They get all the confederate stuff removed from something that started from their own people! The Africans are the ones who sold the slaves first.

It is not the intent but the impact! Here it is plainly the intent and the impact with the subsequent sexist and homophobic action as well. It is not enough to not be a racist, you must be anti-racist! See something, say something!

Sick

WTF?

The true reply to all of this hate/racism its not outrage, more talk, its, get off one;s ass come 2020 and vote.

They’ll be out of business by Wednesday afternoon.

Freedom of expression or thought should be exposed instead of hidden.

Trump probably had a good idiotic chuckle as he slapped Pence on his back..

Certainly a disgraceful thing to display. I, for one, would not do business with an outfit that put that on display.

But this was fine tho right? Asking for a friend.

People are getting too soft. Pretty soon you won't be able to do anything without needing consent from the whole state. It's the Halloween season, if you don't like it, leave it.

NBC NEWS. LET'S ALL PRAY, PLEASE. SINCERELY MS. SHELLIE GARY.

Whe can’t trump hold Barry the Kenyans head?

'claims'

This is NOT racism..

Boycott his shop.

If liberals don’t have a problem with a decapitated Trump, they shouldn’t care about a decapitated Obama.

It should of had Kathy Griffin's in the other

Seems like an odd way to announce your retirement, but OK. 🤷‍♀️

Because of ordinary politician Trump American politics has become ugly.

Trump's supporters show same hateful attitude of Trump. against political opponents .

So far I remember the interview, is not a rope! Is the bones( spine)!!

Racist and sick and unpresidential.

YOURE 👏NOT 👏EVER 👏ALLOWED 👏TO 👏CRITICIZE 👏BLACK 👏PEOPLE 👏FOR 👏ANYTHING 👏THATS 👏RACISM

💥💥💥 kathygriffin was smeared, harassed, reamed, & threatened for doing something similar! The govt even got involved & she went through Hell, while they opened an entire investigation against her.💥💥💥 🗣💥💥HOW IS THIS ACCEPTABLE?!?!💥💥

I dont agree with the display, but isnt it odd how you show the decapitated head pictures of Trump but not obummer...

As a outward Trump supporter, I condemn this.

Hmm

here we go

Awesome

Hahaha, NBC is not afraid to embarrass themselves on the regular.

They should know better! Only liberals can do that - then it’s “art”.

Claims? Come on !!!!! In the words of my buddy ChadHartmanShow 'you're better than that...'

Is this in the UP? Very bleached.

No racism about it. Just a really gawd-awful display.

What does Kathy Griffin think about this?

Just another 'I'm not a racist' racist in America

NBC stoking up race division.

Required media headline words being taught in journalism schools. Slammed. Blasted. Backlash. Racist. Outcry.

Calm down. It’s just a Kathy Griffin trying to get work.

But since it is Obama conservatives will defend it

Look ya cuckoos black people aren't the only ones that were lynched. Black people aren't the only ones that have been hung. Black people don't own the Rope as a symbol of Oppression. Just because you feel it doesn't mean it's true.

it is racism

Love it!

Oh the drama

Oh, that explains it. I just noticed that Fowlerville, MI is near Howell, MI, which is the neo-Nazi capital of the state. Michigan

And America’s next mass shooter comes from Fowlerville...

If it were the other way round you would have shown the full pic.

Hey DonaldJTrumpJr is this one ok with you?.....speak up, slick POTUS

Michigan auto shop goes into bankruptcy...

I LOVE Obama. But you can’t cry racism at every opportunity. Google for “effigy George bush” and you’ll find loads of pictures of George burning or being hung

Racist, you think? actually I don't think they were thinking but if I lived there I would encourage everyone I know not to go there.

Sounds like something Kathy Griffin would do

It’s amazing how completely stupid some people are. They’re probably sitting in front of the gas station drinking their suds belching scratching their asses thinking what a great job they did with the 🎶Deliverance 🎶theme playing in the background.

So it wasn’t race related after all, just good ole fashion bigotry.

Be careful America, what we breed 😢😢

Meh

kathygriffin care to comment?

Deal with it. If it was Trumps head by a rope leftist would be praising it.

“Claims of racism” naaah literal racism

You don't say...

Ya think? racism

If the rope fits...

While vile, it is perfectly legal. Protected by the constitution. Your feelings are also free to feel whatever they want about this.

But, maga though.

Claims of racism!! These are the people I’m ashamed to recognize as Americans.

Read the article. A snowflake melted in Michigan and made a big deal over nothing

I predict that business will be out of business by this time next year.

I almost wish that I lived in Fowlerville just so I could boycott this business.

Y’all realize it’s a Halloween decorations? Tacky but ...still

I'll take who's business will be closed soon for $1000 Alex

Beneath contempt seem to remember someone lost their job over similar depiction ...

Ya think Horrible

Birds gotta fly. Fish gotta swim. Deplorables gotta deplorable.

So Kathy griffin holding up a head of trump, is the same as this. Lol you know good and well why they did this.

How about showing the entire picture

I can see Trump supporters doing such a thing.

It's a free country.

REALLY‼️. Free Speech or Feel Good Speech⁉️🤔🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 FREEDOM UNDER FIRE 🔥

Awesome!

Racist? No. In poor taste? Yes.

Why is it racism? Did they do something racist?

Stup+d a55 m0ther4kers.

Concordo!

Why not? It's ok for the left to do this every day? What's wrong?
