Smart business owners speak in the slang of their clients. A show that caters to minitrucks that has a sign saying no dragging would not have the same meaning as the same sign at an import or muscle car show.


Ninja, you are guilty of making an generalization without knowing any of the relevant facts. Why would you think he is trying to stir up controversy? Because of a sign? The article didnt say how long the sign was there, what type of bar this was, if the girls were regular occupants. This is being blown out of proportion because of people that didnt understand the slang of the clientele of that bar. Nothing more, nothing less.
The Knot Hole has been around for years, but a few months ago the owner put up a signs that reads, "Please notice, no colors allowed. Thank you."
Legg said he has gotten other complaints, including one from the NAACP, but he says the group was satisfied with his explanation.
If you've gotten numerous complaints (even from a bullshit organization like the NAACP[on another note, these motherfuckers have done everything in their power to slow the progression of a united America. These asshats have set black people back in phenomenal leaps and bounds]), why not add another sign to clarify? Or maybe alter it to be a little more specific?

I'm not saying he should -have- to, I'm not saying I'd tell him too. I'm just saying, if theres something causing a lot of negative attention, most companies/corporations/businesses would do something to clarify the situation.

That is what draws me to the conclusion he purposely left the sign up unaltered to draw controversy/attention; either to the sign and its problems, or his being stubborn and protecting his "rights".{even though no one questioned them}
