The KFC restaurant refuses to remove the controversial sign, sparking outrage.
The administration of a KFC restaurant has vehemently defended their choice to retain a contentious sign, even though it has been widely requested to be removed. They made a public statement claiming the sign was meant to be funny and not disrespectful.
We apologize if the sign offended anybody; nonetheless, it was intended to be humorous, the statement said. As of right now, we are not planning to get rid of it.
The dispute has only grown as a result of this reaction. There are those who think the eatery is completely insensitive to its customers' sentiments. The question of whether they meant to insult is irrelevant, according to one irate consumer. "The important thing is that they should own up to offending, and that is what this is all about."
A picture of the sign went viral on social media, leading to passionate debates on the sign's legitimacy. While it may have been humorous to some, many took offense to the placard. Local activists and community leaders have joined the chorus demanding its removal.
