Sign targeted 17-year-old Trayvon Martin

DETROIT, Mich. (WOOD) - A road sign in Detroit displayed a racial slur early Monday morning.

According to WDIV , the sign referenced Florida teen, Trayvon Martin, who was killed in February by neighborhood watch volunteer, George Zimmerman.

Michigan State Police said the sign, along I-94 and Addison, was hacked around 1 a.m.

It has been taken down.

Just another college prank or does somebody out there need a good ass-kicking?

Obama getting his race war-it’s gonna get worse as many blacks will believe the racist BS from the Left and some whites will overreact to the obviously racist double standards promulgated by the Democrats and the MSM..

Soon Manson's Helter Skelter (only this time the race war is initiated by blacks) will arrive; just in time for election day.

All is going as planned in the Obama campaign.

“All is going as planned in the Obama campaign.”

It’s the ultimate race card but now it’s the whole damned deck they’re playing with. I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that the freeway sign-hacker(s) were indeed opportunistic race-baiting blacks.

Manson’s Helter Skelter had Billy the Bomber Ayers and Psycho Bernadine Dohrn as supporters. Just a couple in Obama’s Chicago neighborhood.

IMHO I believe there is a 95% chance you are correct. The first thing that came into mind was some blacks did it.

Racial epithets on college room doors, vandalizing autos, etc... History has taught us the blacks will think of these things before actual white people and try to further their agenda by committing these types of acts and then screaming "RACISM!"

Obama is turning all of America into a penitentiary of sorts—where upon entering you HAVE to join the gang that represents your race or be abused to death by the others.

You don't want to be a racist but you want to live.

Looks like the “N” word was blanked out leaving only the N.

Given the location, I’d say the pranksters were either muslims or gangstas........I’m guessing the later.

Road sign hacked in a city where the majority of people are black, and most of the public jobs are occupied by blacks, in a part of the state that is almost all left-wing?

Wild guess, but I’m leaning to the direction of stunt by someone the press will not want the public to know about.

Be careful of what you wish for.

Or some Democrat activist, not necessarily black. You know, the people who have the familiarity and access to these signs are the union road crews...

Love it. These systems are behind security, as any system. That system is improved, hacked, improved, hacked, improved, ad infinitum.

Just outside of Chicago - I would say there is equal chance that the “Hacking” came from inside, and the “Hacking” was merely someone turning their head for a few minutes.

The sign was 'hacked' leading me to believe they are referring to one of many electronic billboards that are posted along this stretch of road. I've driven by them many times and they usually carry messages about traffic, time to airport, warnings against drinking and driving...nanny signs lol
