SIGN STEALING


SIGN stealing? OH MY GOSH...how l..o...w.. can you go?
I have the same constitutional rights as you. I pay as much for gas as you. I spend time with my family like you. I have free speech like you. I work like you. I experience life like you. I vote like you. I have opinions like you. I can go anywhere in the country like you. I pay taxes like you.
AND YET...you tear down my PROP 8 signs? YOU PROPOSE MARRIAGE FOR ANYONE (no pun intended) and yet you WON'T LET ME VOICE MY OPINION? What makes you think there's any equality if I can't even voice my own opinion? You think you're "above" me by tearing down these signs.
I AM SORRY that you feel so threatened. I AM SORRY that you feel that you can't let me have free speech. I AM SORRY you feel so afraid that you have to steal into the darkness of night and steal these signs. I AM SORRY you don't feel that I have my own opinions. I AM SORRY you don't appreciate that we all have the RIGHT to free speech and thank this wonderful country of ours for that blessing. I AM SORRY you steal these signs and have to hide what you did with them. I AM SORRY that you feel you have to deface the signs and don't have the courage to just put up your own signs next to mine. Did you know that you have the right to do that? I AM SORRY that you may think this is a game to brag about, chide, resort to crime (yes, stealing is a crime), pretend you don't know who did it, act ignorant, etc. I AM SORRY for you.
If YOU HAVE AN OPINION...put your sign up. TAKE the TIME to VOICE your opinion. DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN DO THAT? DID YOU KNOW that you can put up signs everywhere in the state like me? DID YOU KNOW you can put up your own signs that are contrary to others? DID YOU KNOW that you can have signs printed? DID YOU KNOW that you can put up signs in the middle of the day and not have to hide? DID YOU KNOW that you can spend your own time and energy on a campaign? DID YOU KNOW that you can help others in this Prop? DID YOU KNOW that you can donate? DID YOU KNOW you can go door to door? DID YOU KNOW that it takes MORE than just stealing signs to cause me to change my vote.
AS A MATTER OF FACT... the more you steal my signs, the more I am determined that my vote is RIGHT.
