IP: JUST TO BE CLEAR Hate, American Style

Just to be crystal clear, GG and I were very very upset by the stickers and
would have grabbed a scraper and helped them be removed if it were not for
the fact that all the store keepers were doing it already. I am reminded of
the German quotation.

I think you mean to convey that the disgusting part was the stickers
themselves, not the fact that the shop keepers were scraping them off
(of what surfaces?).  Thanks for sending Kristof's comments around.  I
may forward them to my own lists.  Scary indeed.  Best, HB IV

When  I was in Pittsburgh this week, the shop keepers in Shadyside , an
upscale neighborhood, were scraping off stickers which said the
equivalent
of "no more than one neg*r allowed at any time". GG and I found that one
of
the most disgusting things we have seen in a long time.
