At Democratic HQ people walk by chanting "BUSH, BUSH"
It may be the start of some sort of organized effort, since it has happened several times over the last two days and I'm not there all the time. The HQ is at a mall, and the morons start the chant as they are almost out of eyesight (typical Republican cowardice).

Out response so far is to laugh at them, an it is a spontaneous reaction every time.

Any thoughts? I'm thinking that it will get worse as the election approaches.

1. Try saying loudly, That's disgusting, there are children here, such
language. Sound shocked and flustered like they mean the other type of bush.

3. I did the same thing while driving past the Bush HQ after the first debate
I yelled "Kerry/Edwards whoohoo"

Actually at our dem table we are getting less and less people, the first few weeks we got a ton of freepers, I had 1 today and last week.

I guess it is where you live.

4. I flip off all bush/cheney signs, HQs, etc.
It's just my gut reaction.

8. Not much you can do
in a Mall, I think. If they get to the level of actual harassment then maybe the Mall security will help out.

Think: "Flush, Flush -- Gurgle, Gurgle".

Or maybe: "Flush Bush".

12. Pepper spray works on harassers.
Okay I am just kidding!

Maybe get some Military Enlistment forms and go give them a few and tell them Bush needs a few more people to enlist and fight in Iraq instead of walking around the freakin' mall.

13. Smile, wave, and say something like "ain't democracy grand?"
Seriously, they want to get a rise out of you, you'll make more of an impact if you can be polite and respond calmly.

I've tried it myself and it really sticks in their craw more than reacting does.

And it puts you WAY above them!

14. Frightening. Sounds like Republcans in your town are a CULT, not a
political party.

After Kerry wins, some of these folks will need "deprogramming", like parents 20 or 30 years ago had to pay for for kids who got involved with the Moonies.

Steelworkers for Kerry co-workers stand in front of the Headquarters.
