"Expected"? What are they gonna do, run it past a committee first?

I could have done a much better Jew silhouette than that. That's quite flattering. I'd have gone with the hooked nose profile, blood dripping from the slavering maw, etc.

I suspect it just means they're guessing about the exact day/time, having not yet received any official confirmation.

Nice to see Diane Abbott offering her condemnation - the woman who claimed white mothers don't fight as hard for their kids as African mothers.

Jamiroquai impersonators too, imo.

Please say I didn't just spell that band's name correctly :-\

I think it means it will be taken down, on Wednesday.

It is ****s like you causing a fuss because of an innocent wording that needs shot in the calf muscle, even before the people that put up the sign.

It could just as easily be 'Beware of The Edge out of U2 during The Joshua Tree period', to be fair.

It's like these people have never even heard of Der Stürmer.

When Anti-Semitism was Anti-Semitism. :cloud9:

Say what you like about Julius Streicher, but he knew how to caricature a Jew.

The thing is, does it actually count as a caricature if it looks virtually identical to enough people from the respective social group being caricatured?

A triangle sign doesn't mean 'beware of'
Triangle signs are a warning.

Terrific!

Oddly enough, he's actually a decent sort; knows alot about cars.

[Pat Vegas]

It's cautionary advice.

'Beware of' is associating this jewish man with dogs.

I found this one it means
Warning Midfield Galloping or Warning Lloyds Bank close by.
