FROM A GUY IN FLORIDA.

MY NEIGHBOR IS A "LEFTY" OF SORTS (OBAMA STICKERS. GUNG-HO
SOCIALIZED MEDICINE, "GUNS SHOULD BE BANNED"), ETC. SO THIS SPRING I PUT THIS SIGN UP IN MY YARD AFTER ONE OF HIS ANTI-GUN RANTS AT THE LOCAL COFFEE SHOP.

THE SIGN WASN'T UP MORE THAN AN HOUR BEFORE HE CALLED THE POLICE AND WANTED THEM TO MAKE ME TAKE THE SIGN DOWN.THE OFFICER INFORMED HIM THAT IT WASN'T THEIR JOB TO TAKE SUCH ACTION WITHOUT A COURT ORDER AND THAT HE HAD TO FILE A COMPLAINT "DOWNTOWN" FIRST,WHICH WOULD BE REVIEWED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY TO SEE IF IT VIOLATED ANY CITY, COUNTY OR STATE ORDINANCES, WHICH IF THERE WAS A VIOLATION A COURT ORDER WOULD BE SENT TO THE OFFENDING PARTY, TO "REMOVE THE SIGN IN SEVEN DAYS".

AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE SIGN WAS LEGAL AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE, THIS MADE HIM EVEN MADDER, I TRIED TO SMOOTH THINGS OVER BY INVITING HIM TO GO SHOOTING WITH ME AND MY FRIENDS AT THE HUNT CLUB BUT THAT SEEMED TO MAKE HIM EVEN MORE ANGRY.

I THEN ASKED HIM IF HE WANTED TO GO TO A TEA PARTY RALLY BUT AGAIN HE DECLINED MY OUTREACH EFFORTS TO BRING ABOUT A BETTER UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN POLITICAL AND SOCIAL OPPONENTS.

I'M AT A LOSS HOW TO MAKE THINGS BETTER BETWEEN US, SO MAYBE I WILL ASKED HIM IF HE WANTS TO GO DEER HUNTING JUST US BUNCH OF GUYS RUNNING THROUGH THE WOODS CHASING BAMBI THEN SITTING AROUND THE CAMPFIRE DRINKING BEER AND TELLING LIES.

I EVEN MADE HIM A BUMPER STICKER WHICH REALLY SET HIM OFF.

ANYWAY, THATS LIFE IN OUR NECK OF THE WOODS HOW ABOUT YOURS.
