Controversy Erupts Over 'Black Labs Matter' Sign in Front of Barbershop
WSBTV ^ | Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2015

Barbershop that says "Black labs matter" and suggests supporting the MSPCA is getting a strong reaction in Norton, Massachusetts. But barber Tom Stevens says humor is his way of life.

"It's just a sign, it's a way to have fun, it's a way to reach out, it's a way to tell people I'm here," he said.

Several years ago we were visiting our son in Boston in December. Very little in the Christmas line of things. We drove one day out to Concord and walked around their little down town. Very little Christmas, none of the homes decorated. I remember it being sort of sad and dark. We did go to their local museum where they had a bunch of Christmas trees decorated in the themes of various children’s books but of course, no Christian themes.

Then on the way back into Boston we saw one big house up on a hill with every Christmas decoration anyone could buy at Walmart including the inflatable snow ball with Santa in it. I loved it. I wanted to go to the house and thank them but my husband and son wouldn’t let me.

"Putting a joke to something that hurt so many people, it's not the right way to go," one resident said.

A do agree with that. The 'Black Lives Matter' movement has definitely hurt a lot of people.

BRAVO! The country needs more real men who don’t give a damn about the brainwashed PC crowd’s feelings.

The crazier people are, the less sense of humor they have.

I've heard it said that when one of your senses is diminished, your other senses are heightened to compensate. That might explain why the leftists' sense of humor is so diminished that their sense of self-importance is heightened.

“The crazier people are, the less sense of humor they have.”

Which is a big problem with most liberals!

Funny. But the negative reaction reminds me of how sacred Blacks and affirmative action are in the PC pantheon.

As close to Halloween as we are, there should be a #blackcatsmatter movement!

Nothing wrong with the dogs and signs. A lot wrong with the people who politicize everything.

It’s usually the poorer neighborhoods that decorate.
