[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how people think that no one should get political in a neighborhood.  Really?  There is nothing that would move you to put a sign up in your yard?  For example, chemical waste buried in the neighborhood?  (Love Canal)  Your family is threatened with cancer from chemical waste, but, no, it would be improper to put a sign up in your yard?

Like it's morally and socially correct not to express your opinion in your neighborhood.  Very strange.  And somehow I don't think our forefathers and mothers who fought the British worried a lot about shutting up in their neighborhoods because it might offend their neighbors.  But, different strokes for different folks, I guess.  It just doesn't seem to connect with the values this country was based on, that's all.[/quote]
I'm fine with people expressing their opinions but my problem is when people do it as a feel good action, hey look at me I'm so progressive and liberal!, but won't lift a finger besides that.

I worked as a field organizer for a decade on campaigns and for PP. yard signs are the worst.[/quote]
