We know who we are and that our family is the furthest thing from racist in anyway.
Lets all just party and enjoy the holiday season.”
The bar also posted a comment about an individual who had planned to protest the special stating:
“Just so Everyone knows, there was a man who was planning to come protest tonite with a group of people, but since he contacted me and we talked about things, he is now coming to talk to reporters with me because he sees that this is a ridiculous misunderstanding that has been blown way out of proportion. Thankfully we were able to talk like adults and were able to understand both sides.”
However, criticism continues from the online community even with the bar’s new special of:
“The owner of MugShots is an asshole” 6 shots of Jose’ Cinge for $12″
