Why doesn't the ImportAtlanta "Clubs and Crews" forum named mention gangs? Because they aren't gangs. The bar just don't want people repping their crews and stirring up shit.
They're not gangs because they haven't been affiliated with "gang" activities. Such as violent beatings, initiations, drug trade, black market trade, etc.
EDIT: I never said the word or the sign was racist nor did I claim that the term "colors" had ever been used to refer to black people.
I'm just saying the sign was poorly worded, and I'm SURE he knew what he was doing when he did it, and if not he's one naive bastard; otherwise, he's just fucking stupid. =/
