Mom in High Heels Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I don't want this to be political at all. I just thought this was...sad? funny? ironic? My friend posted this on FB: The comments (all in fun) read as follows: Friend 1 (original poster) : "No offence, [MiHH]" Friend 2: "Emough said" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margo out of lurking Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I saw enough of these during the last election to assume it's fake. I don't believe that people who are that illiterate really care so much to attend a political rally. And although this is not enough "proof," I question why the sign is facing backwards. Would people really have the foresight to paint their sentiments on both sides of the sign? (I wouldn't, but maybe that's because I homeschol.) I don't know what I'd reply on FB though. Any response seems almost desperate, kwim? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe that people who are that illiterate really care so much to attend a political rally. Actually, I think quite a few people who are not educated get involved in political rallies. I think some politicians court them and find them as a group easy to sway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LidiyaDawn Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Yeah that looks fake… it's very easy, though, to misspell words when you're making a large sign - your view of it is different and you don't see things the same way until you step way back and look. (It's the same when you're putting those letters up on fast food/etc signs -- you're spelling words with letters the size of your face. VERY easy to make mistakes.)

Blueridge Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Well, that is just peachy. Even if it is a fake, (and I sure hope it is!) there are plenty of people who are seeing it. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creekland Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Whether or not there ever really was such a sign, that picture really looks "photoshopped." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen in PA Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 My XH posted that on Facebook, too. I definitely declined to comment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
