We have a new rental house across the road. The neighbours have decided to put up a no trespassing sign and an F*CK Trudeau flag. Our neighbourhood has always been a mix of different political backgrounds but everyone is lovely and respectful. Seems as though someone close by called the police about the flag. It wasn’t us although we have the same feelings about it. The flag is offensive but we decided to educate our child about why the display of signs like this are hateful rather than uplifting and supportive. Since the police showed up we heard them loudly exclaim “someone has too much time in their hands”. I’m guessing it was directed at us as we have a pride flag in our front window. Shortly after that the Trudeau flag showed up. How can one approach this? We’re all for free speech. But why act like a trash human to get your opinion across?

Rant over.

    Express your appreciation of the flag, agree that yes indeed Trudeau is very fuckable and you can see why they want to express that desire in flag based form

      On one hand, making assholes uncomfortable is very funny.

      On the other hand… I feel like this would just end with you getting yelled at.

        I’m generally ok with being yelled at, variations of these arseholes have been protesting my kind my entire adult life, I’m pretty good at making them uncomfortable.

        I’m a middle aged faggot and have no truck with nonsense anymore, besides JT does have a nice arse.

          I tend to be a “get in their face” kinda person so I vote for having a block party with everyone invited as long as they wear a pride flag … then see how it goes from there. ;)

          Maybe you could move in next door. I have a feeling we’d get along. 😁
