Neighbor mile away has some courage

[Tree Lady]

I live in a red city in blue state southern Oregon, this neighbor lives across the street from 3 houses with Trump flags, bumper stickers, etc. I walked by after seeing these for years to see this flag, I guess he got sick of looking at the Trump stuff.

1. I like using the Russian flag as the background!

n/t

[Timewas]

2. Yes

I also live in southern Oregon near a red town, and would be a little leery of having that flag on my place, probably get vandalized at the very least, and would actually be concerned for my life.

8. Anti-Trumpers shoot too.

and accurately thanks to Uncle Sam. Just saying.

[Timewas]

10. Yes

I have enough here to handle pretty much everything and the training to use it, but also have several others here including 6 grand kids that would be endangered too... So must be a little more cautious.

11. This is actually his second flag

I didn't realize until I came home and looked at the pics. The first flag said same things and had flames under the words which were even larger. Flag was a bit bigger.

I had walked by a few times and saw first flag but never had phone with me until today.

28. In S.E. Texas his house would be shot up for this.

Funny how they believe in “freedom” unless it is yours.

3. Kudos to your neighbor for courage and bravery. I live in MTG's district in GA

and was worried about the Stacey Abrams sticker on my car in previous election. Never had the courage to post yard signs.

6. I feel your pain. I live across the state in NE Georgia,

and we have gun-humper Andrew Clyde. I don't use bumper stickers or yard signs because I don't want my house vandalized or my life threatened. Sad isn't it?

[japple]

7. There are 3 Democratic candidates who are registered to run against MTG

in 2024, one of whom is a retired US Army Brig Gen, now farmer. I feel sure she will be primaried by a GOP candidate, but am hoping for a big defeat of her ignorant ass.

Shawn Harris for Georgia!!! https://www.shawnforgeorgia.com/

Keep us posted on the activity in your district.

14. Maybe that's one of the problems. People get to continue to believe they live in a red area

Where there are plenty of Democratic voters, but they’ve been intimidated, by potential violence?, From professing it publicly.
Then, when they see they lost the state, they say “my God, it must’ve been stolen because I don’t know any Democratic voters in my neighborhood. There are none of them around here.”
I have lived in plenty of red areas, districts, towns, and neighborhoods, and I let all of them know exactly who I am, and who I vote for

20. yep! nt

4. Guy 3 houses down the street

Has a “let’s go Brandon” banner strung across his front porch. I put up yard signs in every election partially to piss him off.

9. ......

Don't let them scare you. Most can barely get off their lazy boy.

21. I live in a very red district...

I always fly a Black History flag in February and a Ukraine flag since the war began. I have college kids living in the house next door and the only time I've ever had any trouble is when one of their parties got too wild and my Black History flag disappeared. I sent my husband over there to have a talk. The next thing I knew, they came over and apologized. I told them they owed me money for my flag and they paid me.

The next February, I put my flag up and the first party they had that month, I crashed. I walked in the house --it was so loud I couldn't hear myself yelling, but finally someone noticed the old battle-ax in the middle of the living room yelling and shut off the music. I told them who I was and that I hoped they had a good time, but that if anyone touched my Black History flag, I'd have to bring out my bitch skills, which not to brag, but they are quite excellent. There were yes ma'ams and nods all around the room. You could have heard a pin drop. The host made his way to me and pissed down one leg and up the other trying to be so polite, offered me a beer. I declined and told them to party on.

I doubt very seriously I'll EVER have any more trouble with that bunch, but graduation comes every year. I wish they'd post some house rules about what a mean old bitch of a neighbor they need to look out for. It'd save everyone a lot of inconvenience and embarrassment.

[Danascot]

22. You could get a poster for them to put up for future generations:

MEAN OLD BITCH
LIVES NEXT DOOR
DON"T PISS HER OFF!

[paleotn]

23. Note to new occupants....

If you value your life, don't piss off the neighbors.

[Trueblue Texan]

30. I like this!!! nt

[Scottie Mom]

5. I have a huge sign in a front window of my home and it says,

"TRUMP FOR PRISON"



I have NEVER gotten a negative comment...I usually get a thumps up or a "I love your sign."

[SCantiGOP]

12. I have a DU sticker and a Take Back the House sticker on my car

My wife always wants us to drive her car cause she's afraid someone might shoot at us.

13. I'm a few hundred miles east of you in a purple area of a very red state.

I should have the same courage but don't. Hats off to your neighbor.

[Sneederbunk]

15. Southern Oregon is not blue.

[Tree Lady]

16. Yes I know I said blue state

red city, the whole area except Ashland.

[calimary]

18. Thank God for the northwest part of the state.

Beautiful, and beautifully liberal. Grateful for it!

17. Another fun method

Change the name of your wireless router (if you have one) to something like "Jail Trump" or "Trump Loves Putin" or whatever else you think up. You don't even have to be using the router for actual Internet connectivity. Have some old ones out in the garage? Just give them a password, an insulting Trump themed name and plug them into a wall socket. They don't even have to be connected to the Internet. They'll still broadcast to your neighborhood and they are completely anonymous. Maybe find a unused and secluded power outlet at some local public building and just leave the old wireless router you had sitting in the garage there instead of discarding it. You'd be surprised how far a wireless routers name can be seen when someone scans for a wireless connection

19. Is this for real? If so, it's a great idea worth sharing far & wide.

I think I can dig up one or two, but may have already given them to Goodwill.

[LPBBEAR]

26. Yes, it's for real.

I have 3 set this way. I only use one in my home network. The other two just sit there doing nothing but annoy any Trump loving clowns living close enough to see them in their wireless network scans.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

27. It's a cool little gesture!

[yonder]

29. I like it.....as I scurry to the garage for the box of old computer stuff

[Abolishinist]

31. Interesting!

This would be really great for someone close to a hotel, where upon checking in you need to go out there to find their network to get connected. Potentially hundreds of "new" customers on a daily basis!

[moniss]

24. There are GQP folks in Wisconsin

who still have giant signs in their yards for Scott Walker.

[CaptainTruth]

25. I have a neighbor here in Florida, across the canal, flying a big pride flag.

I'm always glad to see it!
