Anyone want to join me in some pro-marriage yard signs?
Edited on Sun Oct-28-07 05:08 PM by pabsungenis
My neighbor across the street just planted a sign in their yard saying "MARRIAGE IS FOR ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN."

With less than a month to go before our own wedding, of course this has riled both Bryan and myself, and we want to fight back.

How do you fight free speech? With more free speech! I'm going to get a sign printed saying: "MARRIAGE: IT ISN'T JUST FOR BIGOTS ANY MORE."

However, to be economical, I'm going to have to do a run of 100 for $199.00. Anyone like to join me in printing these signs?

Great idea! I just want to offer my thanks and encouragement. Show that idiot, bigot neighbor of yours that same-sex marriage is RIGHT.

Recommended.

And I hope your wedding is a beautiful and happy one! ;-)

4. Thank you.
I'm doing the run whether or not anyone else joins in. It's just that these signs can be put to better use than just sitting in my garage.

9. Maybe you could get one of those corrugated plastic ones.
It would handle the weather better, and you might be able to get them printed one at a time.

11. That's the type I'm thinking about.
I want it to look as good as the well-funded one across the street.

12. Does CafePress do political style yard signs?
I didn't think they did last I checked. I've got a number of stores at CafePress right now, from political stuff to "Queen Victoria."

19. But, apparently, only one sided.
So to get the same coverage as a single professional sign, you'd have to pay $30.00.

22. Ahh. Never mind then.
The fact that they asked for "front image" and not back threw me off.

18. I just had an evil evil thought
what is some "marriage is for Whites Only/ Christains only" signs just appeared
in their yard ? "No Irish Catholic weddings Allowed, America is a Christian
country"

(These are just off the top of my head )


I mean if they are biggots why not just add to the bigotry ?
