Asbury Park Business Gets To Keep Anti-KKK Sign Up

ASBURY PARK – An Asbury Park business that showed how much it dislikes the KKK gets to keep doing it.

After the business said it was forced to take it down, the Rebel Supply Co. now says its message, "No Hate, No KKK, No Fascist USA," is allowed to remain.

"Hey #asburypark! You did it!" the business said on Facebook. "The sign we know and love will remain."

"We had no idea the stir this would cause and the amount of support we would receive. Our landlord did the right thing and we are thrilled."

The management team for Sackman Enterprises told The Asbury Park Press that a misunderstanding was to blame for the controversy. Sackman Management said it sent out a notice to all of its tenants advising them of "house rules" to ensure safety and that all property was kept clean, adding that: "Residential tenants cannot have signage in windows, as they distract from the historical significance and beauty of the buildings.

"Sackman, as a company, does not support discrimination of any kind and hopes to be an ally to our local arts community," the company told The Press.

Rebel Supply Co. rallied support for its cause and even sold T-shirts with the same message emblazoned on it.

"We hope you stop by and take pics with our window for years and years to come. This is a great day and I’m proud to be a part of this community. Thank you! "
