How could you think this is a good idea in any way, shape or form?
In probably the most racist promposal of all time, this guy decided to dress in a burka and ask a girl to prom with the sign: “I know I always wait until the last second but prom would be the bomb with you.” Unbelievable.
To make it even more inappropriate, they’ve even got toy dynamite involved, which the girl, named on Twitter as ‘Kiana’, clutching it with a big ol’ grin on her face. For fuck sake.
Despite this ridiculous proposal, by the looks of the photos she apparently said ‘yes’ to ‘Austin’ and it’s a bit of a struggle to understand how something like this could of won her over.
It’s no real surprise that the pair faced a massive backlash on social media, with many labelling the promposal as racist:

One tweet suggests she has since apologised, but has now deleted her account:
"knew people would take it offensively" ???? OF COURSE BECAUSE IT IS OFFENSIVE. your apology means nothing. delete this

Can’t imagine him trying out this tactic again anytime soon.
