Don't close your restaurant. Stand up to these racist, Republican thugs! If they had the guts, they would show their faces. Don't let them win!!

3. We have mcsame to thank for this hateful behavior. He's made it |

a legitimate endeavor. I hope the restaurant doesn't close but on the other hand I can understand Michael's fear for his family. The perpetrators used the "K" in mccain for a reason.

...this happened to my high school a long time ago. they spray painted "i hate n-word!!" really big on the front of the school except they spelled n-word with only one G. so i guess they really hated all people from Niger? uninformed idiots suck.

7. Attention Wilcox residents!!!!! |
|
Organize and do what is needed to allow Mr. Terrell to keep his restaurant open without fearing for his safety and his family's. Raise money for a surveillance video, for night lights, make an extra effort to patronize his business, lean on local law enforcement to protect him, etc. Any more ideas out there in DU land?

i agree with surveillance video and night time lighting. i would also encourage increased police patrol during closing hours over the next few weeks. if they notice a car coming around many times over the next few weeks and pausing almost to view the damage, you may catch the criminal. i wonder if the town had any kind of local surveillance around the area, such as near a stop light or something.
i would also suggest that Mr. Terrell doesn't give up on his American dream. he can easily wait out 19 days, see the outcome and gauge things then, but i think Republicans and more importantly the VANDALS win if he gives up on the business. i can see his point of view, however, because the racist and pro-nazi comments would scare just about any business-owner.
i wonder if they have any local chapters of pro-Mccain klan in Wilcox.

One of the first places President Obama visits after the election should be this man's restaurant.
