Lake Ozark bar criticized for NFL jersey doormat seen as racist

Lake Ozark bar criticized for NFL jersey doormat seen as racist

LAKE OZARK – A Lake of the Ozarks bar owner was taking heat Tuesday for what at least one passer-by saw as a racist doormat out front.

“It’s not a race thing,” said Jason Burle, who owns the S.N.A.F.U Bar near the Bagnell Dam. “A lot of people want to twist it around to be a race thing.”

Burle said he ordered two NFL jerseys to be used as doormats outside his bar after NFL players started kneeling during the national anthem at football games.

“We pulled them out of the box, taped them down. There was no ill-intent,” Burle said.

Burle used the jerseys of NFL players Marshawn Lynch and Colin Kaepernick.

When placed side-by-side, the jerseys read “Lynch” “Kaepernick."

I guess to the deplorable Dotard McShitstain base, this isn't considered "ill intent." To anyone who has a functioning brain it is glaringly obvious what message this ass is sending.

The deplorable jerkoff just wanted to show his love of his fellow man by this act.

And the Lynch Kaepernick deal was just an innocent mistake.

Yeah thats it.....
