Kentucky native Danny Hafley has sparked controversy after he erected a statue of President Barack Obama near his house depicting the nation’s first black president eating watermelon. When asked to defend his artistic choices, Hafley replied that the 44th President of the United States “might get hungry standing out here.”
Hafley told reporters with NBC’s Lexington County affiliate that he is simply exercising his right to free speech with his racially insensitive depiction of the president.“The way I look at it, it’s freedom of speech,” said Danny Hafley. “I don’t know how other people will take it.”
Hafley bought the Obama mask on sale after Halloween and put up the display around the time of November’s presidential election.
The mannequin, dressed in a grey suit, clip-on tie and blue-collared shirt, was originally standing in Hafley’s yard but the homeowner decided it would look better near the road.
“That’s my buddy,” Hafley said. “He don’t talk. Don’t make no smart comments. If I had a dollar for everyone who stopped and took a picture of it I’d be a millionaire.”
Asked by Lex18 why Obama is depicted eating a watermelon, Hafley replied that he “might get hungry standing out here.”

Let crackas ? from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee!
Let crackas ? from every hill and molehill of Mississippi. From every mountainside, let crackas ? .
And when this happens, when we allow crackas to ? , when we let them ? from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of ? 's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old ? spiritual, "Free at last! free at last! thank ? Almighty, we are free at last!" -

The only thing shocking about this is the fact that people are still surprised by these acts. To paraphrase Chris Rock, White people are only as racist as their options

*actually, in the last one, he looks pretty pimpin' (pun intended)
but, sadly, i think people just have to accept that this racism is going to be prominent and probably even more seething up until the day he leaves office.
Just goes to show that blatant racism against blacks still exists (as it does for other ethnic groups in America that aren't white anglo-saxon or jewish). -

There was a substitution of a couple of words, but yes, you are correct -
it would be funny if someone put up a statue of a white teen with a gun in his hand and a sign that read said "be careful they think call of duty is real"
