Racist flyers in Waterloo

This is what people voted for, why would they be surprised?

Waterloo Police say they've received several reports of the flyers- which they do not believe is an immediate threat.

The flyers say, "your race is calling, will you answer?" and direct people to a website. It says it was distributed 'without malicious intent.'

Josh Surprenant found the flyer on his property Sunday afternoon. He says he's very upset.

"I'm disgusted. This is my hometown, born and raised in Waterloo, and to just find this laying in my yard, not to mention my son seen it, and he's absolutely disgusted just like me, and it's something I can't shelter him from, I'm just absolutely enraged," he said.
