The Yes crowd has the class to allow everyone their right to a voice. Silencing your opposition through theft, vandalism and intimidation is so un-American!Christa Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09841320887356797524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578051917982449134.post-86358543451910854812008-10-20T08:06:00.000-07:002008-10-20T08:06:00.000-07:00Now I'm getting angry!

Yes, we have a back-up and we'll put it up again without hesitation. But these people are trying to bully us and shut us up! How dare they break laws (trespassing/stealing)and defy the right to free speech in an election! I know many "yes" voters who are afraid or intimidated to put out a sign or to stick a bumper sticker on their car. Not me!!! <BR/><BR/>P.S.

The stronger we push, the more attention we'll get, the more people will notice and educate themselves on what the fuss is all about, which is what we want.

I hope it doesn't get violent here like it did in Modesto. <BR/><BR/>I have several friends who won't put up "Yes" signs because they are afraid of the retaliation. I hesitated at first too because we live on a main road in our community and my children play in our yard. <BR/><BR/>But I thought it was important to let others know my postion on this issue. I'm respected in my community by people of various beliefs and wanted them to know that I support the "yes" vote. I thought if this could give them a reason to research the "yes" position more, it was worth the risk to me.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04163112177764869671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578051917982449134.post-203689675229377652008-10-18T16:07:00.000-07:002008-10-18T16:07:00.000-07:00you and everyone I know!
