Yahoo Reports On Racist "Don't Re-Nig" Anti-Obama Bumper Sticker

[stopbush]

n image purporting to show a racist, anti-Obama bumper sticker on the back of a vehicle has been garnering lots of attention on Facebook in the past 24 hours.

The bumper sticker reads, "Don't Re-Nig in 2012." And in smaller print below, "Stop repeat offenders. Don't' reelect Obama!" The sticker also features an image of the Obama campaign logo crossed out.

Several viewers have claimed the image has been digitally altered. After all, it seems shocking that someone would proudly display an openly racist image on their vehicle in 2012. So, is the image authentic?

In short, yes.

1. I guess the Benelli shotgun sticker is an added touch. n/t

[Botany]

2. It is real because when I saw it I found a web site that sold many such things (warning nasty pix)

.... bumper stickers, confederate flags, and other trash.

Their web site is now "down."

3. Jesus, the racist right wingers are all over the comments on Yahoo.

Did they all move over from AOL or something?

[RockaFowler]

4. Yes they did

I really hate the comments there. Nothing but spam or Racists

9. Do yourself a favor. Never and I mean never go to that comments section. I've made

that mistake a few too many times.

5. Why do these racist fucks always try to be clever when displaying their racism?

I really don't get it. Everyone knows exactly what the sticker means.

I don't think they are embarrassed by their racism, so what is it?

6. They may think it's clever

but I don't think they consider that some kind of hidden message. That's pretty much in your face.

8. Isn't Renig one of those high falalootin words them consrvaties don't like to use...

Even though it's really spelled Renege.

Which just to show their ignorance.

13. I bet the asshole

has no idea that "re-nig" is a misspelling of a real word, and that the message is supposed to be a pun.

[WCGreen]

7. I told everyone back in 08 that it was all about race.....

[AlinPA]

10. Our local republican HQ probably gives them away.

[southernyankeebelle]

11. And to think these are the very same people that say "I am not a racist". We your actions

show otherwise.

12. And I thought truck nuts were the most offensive thing I'd ever seen.
