Quality Coatings in Fowlerville, Michigan, received a wave of complaints after the display was put up outside the business.

But it caused outrage after Kathy DeTroyer drew attention to the display in a post on Facebook last week.

"How is this ok? I am disgusted that this is in my hometown," DeTroyer wrote on Facebook alongside pictures of the display."Way to display your ignorance. Democrat or Republican this is just wrong. At least I know who not to do business with."that the rope looks like a noose. "Don't buy from this company," wrote John Machowicz."Their racist display is not vulgar but anti-American."

Alongside a picture of the scarecrow, he wrote:"I'll never support them. Here's what they thought would be funny for Halloween...racists! They demonstrated complete lack of empathy when people complained. They owe their town a public apology. Shame on them."

I think that explains a lot. It's not that Trumpsters love him that much; they just hate Obama that much.

What about the knife depicted in the picture, ON/IN the scarecrow? Those who call it racist have no clue about Halloween displays. What do you think that the dead people (who vote DNC )have to say about skeleton in spider web, the heads on a stick, break boy? They'd be outraged

Oh the good old United States if America . . . . how absolutely far you’ve fallen. Sad

Not good.

What doesn’t spark outrage? Do a story on that

There is no need for that....period

There are many Democrats&Republicans opponents of the Trump administration feeding a dangerous political polarisation divisions, racism&divisions among the American people, in irresponsible terms, without any responsibility for it’s destructive repercussions in the society.

Really this is what your once proud country has become! You should be ashamed at allowing this treasonous crook and his coven into the White House!

Which is what it's supposed to do. And here you are feeding it. take it down, ignore it, move on. Instead you fuel the hate fires just like the scarecrow creator intended.

I would normally say to let people do the stupid things and customers decide if they want to give them future business. I can see where this particular one is someythat you wouldn’t want your kids to think is ok. Same as Kathy’s stupid stunt.

This is a hate crime that should be prosecuted.
