NAACP protests anti-Obama poster outside strip club

The Virginia NAACP called it an abomination and a sign of disrespect. The owner of a downtown Richmond strip club called it exercising his right to free speech.

About three dozen people attended a lunchtime protest yesterday outside Velvet, where a new banner on one of the exterior walls depicts President Barack Obama as the Joker of "Batman" movie fame.

I don’t like the poster. It takes dangerous realities and makes them seem fictional.

[MadelineZapeezda]

Wow, this press covers a 3dz protest rally but I bet they didn’t cover the 9/12 DC rally?????

[TheThinker]

Yeah, they're made because Obama is painted in whiteface.

Weird.

[NCC-1701]

Do you notice what color the strip club is painted? Does that set this clown off, too?

[CholeraJoe]

That gold and purple robe is as offensive to me as an SS uniform would be.

I guess it must be the public school education this NAACP director received. It is not racism to denounce the atheistic Marxism/socialism/communism of the Obama agenda. It is absolutely the right thing to do, for any person who believes in this republic's foundation of ordered freedom and liberty. This dubious NAACP director should remember it is that same founding Freedom and Liberty that resulted in the slaves being free here...how ungrateful and wrongheaded he is to align himself with an ideology, Barack Obama’s ideology, that enslaves an entire populous to serve State interests and denies the dignity of EVERY human person - socialism/communism/Marxism.
