A New Jersey man who posted a photo of President Barack Obama dressed up as a witch doctor in the front of his clothing store says he's shocked the photo is being referred to as racist.
Bill Skuby, 66, of Skuby & Co. in Spring Lake, N.J. said the display represents his political opinion.
"It always comes down to the race card," Skuby told the Daily News.
"If this is racism, then its reverse racism. I think they're as racist as they accuse me of being."
According to the Daily News, the picture shows President Obama naked, except for a headdress and loincloth, with a bone through his nose.
The sign, also read "Obama-Care" with a hammer and sickle logo on it referring to communism.
The photo was pasted on a tombstone with another photo of the president that read "I Told You I Was Sick." After that is a zombie of Obama crawling out of the grave wearing a baseball hat that reads "F.Y.B.O."
According to the Daily News, those hats are only for sale at Skuby's clothing store.
"I don't think there's such a thing as bad publicity," Skuby said.
Skuby said he has gotten many calls of support and he's supporting the sign because it's his political message.
"He (the president) says small businesses are doing well. No we are not, we're not! I haven't had a line of credit in three-and-half years," Skuby said.
Skuby has temporarily taken the Halloween photo down, due to the amount of criticism he is getting.
