Latino-Owned Restaurant Gets Bomb Threat Over "White Appreciation Day Sunday, May 10, 2015

A Latino-owned Colorado barbecue restaurant was evacuated Friday because of a bomb threat after its owners announced they wanted to hold a "White Appreciation Day" there, NBC News reported. Edgar Antillon, the son of Mexican immigrants and owner of Rubbin' Buttz BBQ and Country Cafe in Milliken, Colorado, said the idea for "White Appreciation Day" was originally a joke — but then decided to turn it into a reality. "We have a whole month for Black History Month. We have a whole month for Hispanic Heritage Month. So we figured the least we could do is offer one day to appreciate white Americans," Antillon told NBC affiliate KUSA.
