Pro-Bush pizza shop given some heat to go (IT'S FREEPIN' TIME TO GET INVOLVED!)

A 24-foot-long ''Go Bush" banner hanging on a pizza shop across from the FleetCenter has drawn plenty of attention amid preparations for the Democratic National Convention this week. But yesterday, a city inspector stopped by and slapped Halftime Pizza with a citation for hanging an unlicensed banner.

Obscenity is relative. Sorry, I know the word relative is offensive to some. I personally don’t use that gesture. But in the context of this thread I find it acceptable to my standards and humorous.

Luis, I have never run across you before here, am glad to meet you. I enjoyed your homepage.

[tallhappy]

I'm with you.

Thanks.

Too many people are intimidated by these profane anti-conservative bullies who post their puerile stuff and gang up on anyone who points out the problem with it.

They are nothing but bullies and unfortunately have allies in the so-called moderators.

[TOUGH STOUGH]

Good going Tallhappy. You are absolutely correct. It is obscene as well as disrespectful to Uncle Sam and to the America he represents.

[tallhappy]

As pegita said: I'm in agreement with TallHappy and arjay ... the poster is both obscene and inappropriate ...

Thanks for standing up. It is difficult in light of the hostile, belligerent bullying that one is subjected to if one makes such a comment on a thread where obscene graphics and languages are being used.

[TOUGH STOUGH]

It isn't possible to walk and chew gum at the same time?

Or perhaps it just isn't possible for you to express your dissent without being obscene.

[TOUGH STOUGH]

Wow, there is someone on this forum who doesn't like you?

Imagine that!!!! LOL!!!

[Vinomori]

what is the mailing address for this store????


I'll send him some CASH!!!!!!!!

[Luis Gonzalez]

Perhaps, you should use your original FR name, and then we'll discuss people who don't like YOU!

People like you are going to make us lose this war. You are no different than the liberals but don't understand it.

No, people like him are not going to make us lose this war. I know people fighting for us against the WOT & in Iraq. And, believe it or not, the men on ground in Iraq are just like him. If you think this is obscene, that’s okay. You are entitled your opinion. You would obviously be shocked at what is said & done in the Armed Forces. Worse things have been written on the bombs our boys drop. And, yes, it is obscene.

There is no need to attack Luis just because his sensibilities are different than yours.

And regarding”…you are no different than the liberals…. Well sir, I am no different either. I am a child of God & I am an American and they are too. I have different opinions, points of view, and have a different political persuasion. But otherwise, I am just like them.

Someday, you and I, Luis, and liberals will stand before God. I trust in Him and I’ll let Him judge.

Have a good day, sir. Peace and Grace to you.

I just filled a huge envelope with cash....mailing today.
The gift that says you care.

Let's hope some enterprising type prints a few thousand "Say Democrats, Thanks for Nothing. Go Bush! bumper stickers.

Perhpas FR merchandise?

[Luis Gonzalez]

I'll be away from the computer for a few hours, but before I go, I want to point out something I find quite ironic.

The people who object to my sign have a whole lot in common with the people who object to Mr. Pasquale's sign.

One more thing, they've spent the entire thread complaining about my sign, and have yet to say one word about the abuse of all our constitutional rights if this individual is forced to take his banner down, or is fined because of it.

I'm sending Mr. Pasquale a note in the mail, and will contribute to any fund created to pay his fines, for his legal defense, or any repairs he may need as a result of liberal protesters damaging his business.

Those of you interested in doing something along those lines, make your voices heard here, the rest can whine ad nauseum about their sensibilities being offended.

[TOUGH STOUGH]

I'll use mine when you use yours!
