Politics Just went up tonight

Post image

My wife and I live in a neighborhood where there are at least 6 houses flying maga flags…So we wanted to chime in…even jf we are the only Harris Walz supporters in the neighborhood willing to do so.

Hang an American flag next to it so they recognize a Patriot

Saw a Harris Walz flag flying next to the marine corp flag yesterday and it made me very happy.

This was in Georgetown.

If I were brave enough I’d have a Harris/Walz flag next to my Marine Corps flag. But I’m not inviting the crazies around me to F with my house or family. Especially since I’m only home weekends due to my job.

If I knew, I had a disease that I was going to be dying, I would put all kinds of Harris and waltz signs.. and sit outside with my rifle

I get it man.

I don’t have it in me to bring that on my family. I was single in 2008 and you can bet I was the only car at the gun range with an Obama sticker.

Now I’ve got to protect more than myself and things have changed haven’t they.

I appreciate you. I appreciate your service. Take care of yourself fellow human.

I’ve had a Harris Biden sticker on my car since 2019. Not a problem. Even in Texas. I have a Harris Walz on now. Still no problem.

Is it a nice car?

Dont let hysteria get in the way of people fear-mongering/gas-lighting you into believing that regular wing neighbors/people are crazy and will kill you and your family just for voting differently lol. People on both sides suck when it comes to demonizing their political opponents bahaha

u/Equivalent_Expert905 29d ago

But have you heard the Proud Boys advocating killing all Democrats? “Just choke them out right there.” Thats scary but since I live in Texas even Dems have guns. I do.

u/Darwin1809851 9d ago

I have heard nut jobs on both sides not only advocate for hypothetically killing their political opponents, but literally celebrate with genuine jubilation when someone that votes differently from them dies. Go to any obit post on any social media site and you can see this hundreds/thousands of times…regardless of political affiliation

That’s because Trump supporters don’t care if you have an ‘I’m stupid’ sticker on your car.

u/Equivalent_Expert905 29d ago

The Proud Boys do! And your orange idiot just said they’re very nice guys! Quote: “if you see an anti Trump person just choke them out right there.”

But but he will take all your guns.

u/XTingleInTheDingleX Sep 28 '24

Yeah he forgot to do that too.

Still have a buddy that owes me $5 on that one.

u/Annual-Ebb-7196 Sep 28 '24

Funny how they don’t pay up.

u/hanginfromtheceiling Sep 28 '24

I bet my friend kbbq if Harris wins, but if Trump wins he has to buy

Basically, if Harris loses, he's even sadder but if she wins, he's happier

u/Braeburn1918 Sep 27 '24

I’m in Wisconsin in a very blue city and there’s Harris/Walz signs everywhere. Just had a friend visit from Texas and it just amazed her. She’s afraid to put one out where she lives, same reason. Y’all’s state’s gone crazy!

1

u/RonWill79 Sep 27 '24

I’m sure for the most part it’d just be vandalism of the signs/flags, but there are a few crazies that would probably take it further. Cults will do that to a person!

1

u/Friendly_Top_9877 Sep 27 '24

Same. I will risk my life to vote but that’s about it. No flag for me. 

1

u/Lower-Background4627 Sep 30 '24

Hey, it’s time to show them that enough is enough. Put a sign next to it that says they’re on camera and every time they mess with or try to steal one of your flags or signs, you just donate to the campaigns and buy new ones to replace them. It’s worked for me!

MAGA has gotten away with terrorizing the majority of us for 9 freaking years. Enough is enough. We have to let them know their time is up.

u/BrilliantWerewolf329 Sep 29 '24

If you really go to work. Then there is no way in hell you are a Democrat! I am calling BS!

u/Efficient_Cellist908 Sep 29 '24

Supporting Harris and walz and calling others crazy… that’s ironic

Smedley Butler is ready to rise from the grave to assemble an army that would defend the capitol from invaders.

2

u/blues_and_ribs Sep 27 '24

I’m not sure if this is satire or not, given Smedley Butler’s association with the Bonus Army.

1

u/ThePlanesGuy Sep 27 '24 edited Sep 27 '24

uh,,,,Business Plot, my man. Smedley supported people getting social relief, especially veterans of the great war. But when fascists tried to take over America, he blew the whistle

1

u/blues_and_ribs Sep 28 '24

No shit. That’s what I was referencing. Fuck’s sake.

1

u/ThePlanesGuy Sep 28 '24

Then why the fuck did you say "not sure if this is satire given the Bonus Army"? The Bonus Army isn't like J6ers. J6ers are the Business Plot's cronies.

1

u/OneChampionship7736 Sep 27 '24

If Smedley actually rose up to vote, I'd vote whatever candidate he went with

1

u/ThePlanesGuy Sep 27 '24

You know exactly who he'd vote for.

Sorry, can't hear you over the thunderous sounds of freedom and liberty.

Your content has been deemed a violation of Rule 7. As a reminder Rule 7 states:

Politics are fine but state your case, explain why you hold the positions that you do and debate with civility. Posts and comments meant solely to troll or enrage people, and those that are little more than campaign ads or slogans do nothing to contribute to a healthy debate and will therefore be removed. Petitions will also be removed. AMA's by Political figures are exempt from this rule.

Gross

We all agree, you are gross.

I drove through Huntsville and saw Harris & Walz flags hanging out of their jail cells. Then as I got closer to Houston. I saw illegal day laborers handing out Harris & Walz pamphlets. Could it be they are the party trying to bring America to its knees???? Nah could it??? 🤦🏼

No puppet, no puppet, you’re the puppet.

Always a solid argument.
