AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Employees at several Austin businesses have found stickers saying "exclusively for white people" placed on their windows, sparking an investigation into their origin and condemnation from the mayor. Mayor Steve Adler said the stickers discovered Wednesday morning were "an appalling and offensive display of ignorance in our city." The stickers also say "Maximum of 5 colored customers / colored BOH staff accepted," apparently referring to the "back of house" operations at a restaurant. They featured a city of Austin logo and claimed to be "sponsored by the City of Austin Contemporary Partition and Restoration Program," though no such program exists. The city has said the use of its logo was unauthorized. Austin is one of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S. and is confronting increasing questions about economic and racial segregation as real estate prices skyrocket around its urban core. Raul Alvarez, board president for the East Austin Conservancy, said the stickers are likely in response to gentrification in the area on Austin's east side. "I certainly share the concerns about the history and culture and affordability that's being lost because of the rapid development, but our organization tends to focus on what it is we can do to preserve what makes East Austin unique and not focus on strategies that divide the community," he told the Austin American-Statesman newspaper. Several business owners and employees said the stickers unnerved them. April Jensen, who works at the Sugar Mama's Bakeshop, told the newspaper "it kind of hurt" when she read the sticker. "I don't really understand the message behind it," said Jensen, who is African-American. "All types of customers come in here." Bryce Bencivengo, spokesman for the city of Austin, tells the San Antonio Express-News that city officials along with the Austin police are investigating the stickers' origin. Nelson Linder, president of Austin NAACP, called the stickers "absolutely stupid." "Don't put signs like that on people's doors because you want to bring attention to your plight," he said.

This is a great idea. Our slogan should be something like "For us. By us." We'll call it FUBU for short.
"Gentrification" means law abiding people retaking the property they lost when the Negros destroyed the area in the 1960s.
A lot of times it means "The same people who encouraged ghetto rats to destroy once valuable neighborhoods in order to lower the property values enough for us to come back in and make millions rebuilding and reselling." My guess is you won't have to look to hard to see prominent leftist Dim investors behind the gentrification programs.

Ahhh,look! A collection of felons playing "soul-jur" with real guns in public,and not getting arrested for federal firearms violations. I bet the collective IQ of that collective hovers right around 100. I'm wondering where they get the guns from. You can look at the way most are carrying them and tell they have no idea what the hell they are doing. I know they are tough,though. I can tell,because dey bees black,and de bees habb-in dark shares and black berets,shoplifted from some surplus store.

Hey, it's sponsored by the City of Austin Contemporary Partition and Restoration Program ... so it must be legit.
It reeks of authenticity.
Amazing how in the oasis of liberalism of Texas that the use of jacking up real estate is used to segregate. The libs see no problem in this in their own areas.

Above a City of Austin logo was a notice saying that the stickers were “sponsored by the City of Austin Contemporary Partition and Restoration Program.” However, Austin Mayor Steve Adler said the stickers were not authorized or in any way sponsored by the city, in a statement released Wednesday and obtained by the Statesman. “This is an appalling and offensive display of ignorance in our city,” Adler said. http://kstreet607.com/tag/city-of-austin-contemporary-partition/

Sounds like a Tawana Brawley deal to me.
