Wanting peace
is no sin
But let's not cut and run,
before we win.
Freeper shave

Another winner!
I think the FReepers should adopt the style of these "Shavies" for use in our rallies (hand carry on a stick). They are succinct, humorous (to us and the public), contentious (to the libs), relatively easy to make and reusable. I like the last line of FREEPER SHAVE and would like to see it used consistently after five separate message signs. The original signs were 30 inches long and about 12 inches high. Howzabout it, Jim Rob? It was very effective almost 80 years ago and I'll bet it would be so again for FR.

Well let's take a look and see.........

Of course they shouldn't be stealing your signs, but can't you come up with clever signs that don't use personal attacks? With signs along a road, you only have a few seconds to get your message across. I don't think name-calling helps. I'm willing to bet they try to steal them, regardless of the content on the signs.

Terrific thread..Thanks for the link! I love the Burma Shave sign stories..I get so angry at these pinkos but it always makes me feel better to see the freepers there to rebut them!

God bless all for supporting our wounded warriors and their families.

May God keep safe all who serve our country.

We informed the Pinkos that our use of the word "hags" was not gender specific. We meant it for their "men" also.

LOLOL

Another one that was not used according to the book --

The wife of bristly
Brushmug Zaymer
Bought
twin beds
Who could blame her?
BURMA-SHAVE

People sent in lots of suggested rhymes that were never used. The executives rejected the even slightly naughty ones.

"The Verse By the Side of the Road" was featured in an article in American Heritage magazine back in the sixties. It quoted extensively from the book.

Lawyers in the US have to be experienced to be believed.

Of course, I hope that you would never experience one.

Every bullet you may ever fire, in the US comes with its own lawyer. Sometimes two.

A cop defended himself in a bar. Fellow went after him with a bottle, broken glass. Bad guy shot. Good guy went to jail for 7 years: Manslaughter.

Some tear gas projectors use a burning gas generator that can cause a fire.

Does the bad guys deserve anything you can do to them? No doubt they do. What they deserve isn't what my post was about.

Thank you for your rhyme and your interest. It is a fascinating subject, isn't it?

the commies went away,
that's what we used to think,
but now they're back today,
and they call themselves, CODE PINK!
