Signs of the times in Montco meant to combat hate [Glenside, PA holier than thoughs]
Philly(D)com ^

Posted on 12/29/2016 9:26:38 AM PST by Phillyred

Been seeing these disgraceful signs popping up all over my area. They are based on a complete fabricated LIE! This "do-gooder" started the signs in response to hate crimes after the election, not one of which has turned out to be an actual event! But now they can all pat themselves on the back for being so loving and accepting (for everyone but their fellow Trump voting neighbors and relatives). Nevermind if it is all based on ACTUAL VERIFIED FAKE NEWS!

Kate Thomson had only planned to order 20 signs.It had all started a few weeks after the presidential election, when a neighbor on her Glenside block stuck a sign in her front garden.

"Hate Has No Home Here," it read, in several languages - a response to a number of incidents of harassment and intimidation reported across the country after Election Day.

Thomson had been alarmed by the stories - some of which happened close to home: Swastikas scrawled in bathrooms at Council Rock High School North. Racist text messages sent to University of Pennsylvania students. A teacher at nearby Cheltenham High School who allegedly told students to "stop bitching about being black" during a discussion about the election.

After the election, Thomson and her family had stepped up donations to progressive causes and collected clothes for refugees. But she said she felt "a personal need" to denounce hateful incidents in "a more public way."

"Having conversations about what constitutes hate is progress,"

Oh, so if I say that American immigration policy should be for the benefit of Americans and that's not "hate," she'll converse with me about that rather than simply shriek 'hater'? That would be a first.

“...But she said she felt “a personal need” to denounce hateful incidents in “a more public way.” ...”

She should go to a Muslim country and demonstrate her “personal need”.

See how that works out for ya, lady.

"I'm Jewish, I'm a lesbian and I'm a woman," said Elayne Aion, who is distributing signs out of her Dovetail Artisans gallery in Glenside. "Those three reasons make this political climate so terrifying to me.

Well congratulations for being a Three-fer, Elayne! You must be proud. Although as a Jew, she should be more concerned about Obama and Kerry.

My tagline: "Orwell described Liberals when he wrote of those who "repudiate morality while laying claim to it."

That "feeling" of moral superiority is their ideological underpinning, even when evidence shows their policies do more damage to those they claim to support.

I assume she knows that you can’t be a Lesbian unless you are a Woman.

As for me, I’m a proud Lesbian trapped in a Man’s Body.

Glenside is in Abington Township, where I live.I started seeing these signs last week. They are popping up everywhere. Libtard sloganeering is to be respected and encouraged.

But my pro-McCain/Palin bumper stickers got my car vandalized on 4 separate occasions. Hate Has No Home Here. Just ask my carefully unscrewed lug nuts and bowie knifed tires.
