HIALEAH, Fla. – A South Florida business owner is using the sign outside his liquor store to send a message, as protests across the country continue following the death of George Floyd.
Robert Gewanter, the owner of M&M Liquors on SE 8th St. in Hialeah, said he wanted to make people think of Floyd’s death and our country’s history of racist brutality against black people.

The sign reads: NO ROPE, NO TREE, JUST A COP, WITH HIS KNEE.
“If you think about it and you interpret it, then that's good, I’ve got you thinking," said Gewanter. "But if you interpret this as a racist message then you need to improve your language skills."
Gewanter is known for his politically charged messaging outside his store, usually aimed at President Trump.
