Wokeness has a reputation for intolerance. That reputation has made some people intolerant of the woke.
At least one Floridian has resorted to what could be construed as civil disobedience to voice disdain over the influx of New Yorkers into a Palm Beach neighborhood. A number of cars with New York license plates found notes on their car windows instructing them to move someplace else if they identify with the political left, according to the New York Post.
Typed in capital letters, the message read, “If you are one of those ‘woke’ people -- leave Florida. You will be happier elsewhere, as will we."
The fliers alarmed some citizens to the extent that they reported the incident to the Palm Beach Police Department. After a brief investigation on Jan. 2, police concluded that no crime had been committed.
Only those vehicles with out-of-state plates were targeted, according to Capt. William Rothrock, public information officer for the department, and the “majority” of those had New York plates.....
In a phone interview with the Post, Rothrock said, “Residents were concerned about the lack of civility and respect for personal property. We understood that concern and that’s why we started to look into the matter but we determined … it was non-criminal in nature.”

I have no problem with get out of town notifications for leftists.
The NYers are upset about this but not violent crime in NY city?
I can’t find it now but back in 2000 someone posted a pic of a handwritten Florida shop sign “No, we don’t do things the way you do in New York.”

Deal with it snowflakes…errr…snowbirds.
They need to learn that “York” rhymes with “cork” rather than “hawk”.
"YOU (heart) NY? TAKE I-30 EAST"
Gosh, I thought Lefties were against colonialism. We need to decolonize red states - ie invite the Leftists from Blue s-hole states to go back to where they came from and live under what they voted for.
Conservative refugees from Blue s-holes are welcome.
Anyone who has a problem with this does not belong in Florida. Only a progressive liberal would complain.
When I was a kid growing up in Florida a popular bumper sticker read
“if you (heart symbol) NY take I-95 North”
Nobody whines like NYC folks.
Dunno, I think the NJ folks may give them a run for the money.
Having lived in both places, I have to say you’re right.
Nor do I. IN FACT, in my leftist metro area, liberals pride themselves on driving Republicans out of town through campaigns of hate. Even supported by a couple of local rags.
Well I’m glad that some Freepers realize that there are still some of us PALEOCONS out here on the left coast.
Most of the time we feel like were in the ALAMO (yes, I stole that from Texas)or perhaps Custer at the Little Big Horn, but we will fight to the last breath!
PALEOCON = Someone to the right of Genghis Khan.
“The greatest happiness is to vanquish your enemies, to drive them before you, to rob them of their wealth, to see those dear to them bathed in tears. Come and sip from the cup of destruction”.
No problem with this at all
i’d tell it to their face
