Re: Your signage where your mouths are
All,
You are the leaders of Minnesota’s gun-grabber movement. You and your wan little pack of Volvo-driving, alpaca-wearing, NPR-listening, St. Olaf-graduating, ELCA-coiffed followers want to take away Minnesotans’ right and means to defend themselves.
Now, crime in Minnesota is very, very low – and a higher percentage of Minnesotans have carry permits than Texans. Crime is lowest of all in places where the number of legally-carried guns is the highest.
And vice versa.
So you all live in your hideaways in Kenwood, Saint Anthony Park, Crocus Hill, Rochester and Saint Louis Park, in part made safer by the deterrent effect of all of us shooters.
So why not make an integrity move, and eschew that deterrence?
Put one of these babies in your yard:
Show America’s gun culture that you patently reject the collateral benefit of their – our – prudence!
Tell Minnesota – all Minnesotans – that you trust all 5.5 million of your neighbors to stay honest. Tell them that you implicitly trust that if something goes hinky, that you trust the police will be there fast enough to make a difference.
You do trust the police to protect you, just as you want us to trust them – don’t you?
Please see to this immediately.
What? You’re not afraid, are you?
Because I’d hate to think you all were a bunch of hypocrites.
That is all.

well, why not have a fundraiser (Ogara’s, Kierans,etc), buy 7 lawn signs with the proceeds and send them to the above named. It is the season of lawn signs after all and I’m sure they will appreciate your thoughtfulness. Include order forms so they can buy lawn signs for their myriad sycophants.

Alternatively, they could sport the same yard sign as the household down the block from me, which reads: “Minnesotans Against Getting Shot.” It’s an odd declaration; as if there are Minnesotans out there just queuing up to get plugged.

Could you describe the preferred quaff you detect among ELCA church goers? I’ve never detected such a pattern myself.

Add a “Sanctuary Residence” sign for extra virtue signaling.

Better yet, for all of those whose addresses are publicly available, be even more service oriented. Just show up and plant the sign in their yard for them. Why make them go thru the effort, and possibly forget or fail to display their sign? Obviously, we would have to let any apartment/condo dwellers take care of posting the sign themselves.
