It's the equivalent of "How can I be racist when I have a black friend?"

"Our intentions were not to hurt anyone at all,” the statement said. “Our staff is full of military and some relatives have passed away due to 9/11. We are promoters of peace and love. We have given abundantly to our community here in San Antonio and wish to remain known as a company who respects and loves others. We hope you find it in your hearts to forgive us. Please accept our apology.”



Probably the least sincere apology i've ever heard. And I'm calling bullshite on their military service or lost loved ones in 9/11

Maybe on December 7th they can have an explosive sale where they sink high prices and slaughter shipping fees.

Lol it's a fail because Mexicans love beans, hanging out at Lowe's, being lazy, fixing roofs. There has never been a stereotype that says they love terrorism. Ergo, racism fail

Hate it when these companies apologize, even in poor taste. Stand firm with your stupidity.

Fat Mexican woman in the middle of the picture. Her 2 Mexican hermanos standing slightly behind her on each side. They are both standing in front of a separate stack of mattresses.

Her "What better way to remember 9/11 than the Mattress Miracle, 'Twin Tower Sale'. Right now you can get an size mattress for a twin size mattress price"
Dude 1: Full Mattress?
Her: Twin Price
Dude 2: Queen Mattress?
Her: Twin Price
Dude 1&2 : King sized Mattress?
Her: Twin Price!!!!

Then she says, "store wide sale all day long", while flailing her arms out, and the 2 dudes screaming while falling over and knocking the mattress towers down. Her saying, "Never Forget"
