Whoever thought of that stop sign symbol with the Communist sickle and hammer on it is brilliant – “stop Communism” in a single, visual, non-language-dependent icon! Almost as iconic as the “O” symbol for 2008. (Sorry, but that “O” icon was marketing genius, even though I abhor who and what it symbolizes.)
The banner message is so true, and @herm2416’s response covers it:
Professor, on my way to work tomorrow … in the fast lane on the I-10 Santa Monica Freeway … I will attempt to photograph the two lefty signs that have been tied to the chain-link fence on two freeway overpasses overhead for the benefit of raising the awareness of commuters. Why, like the OWS crowd, are these people convinced they own public property? Ironic, no?
If I should not survive this admittedly dangerous (and quite exciting!) feat, please tell my wife I said, “It’s been real,” and tell my children not to forget to brush their teeth, twice, (heh heh, Daddy tries to teach his OCD in case these survival genes were not passed along) before going to bed.
LukeHandCool (who is quite sure the pictures should survive any resulting crash).

Can they drive that trailer up to Minnesota? I want to see some liberal heads explode.
To quote the Joker, “Where does he get those wonderful toys?”
The “O” icon cuts both ways. It’s been an easy target to lampoon.
Nice!

Before leaving home, and to save time, it might help to use lipstick to print your blood type on your forehead. Otherwise, good chap!
Good idea! Thanks, mate!
I can steer pretty well with my right pinkie as I lean out the window to get the perfect shot.
