Signs of the times

Sign in a bakery in Seattle
Sign on a suburban street in Boulder - click on it to enlarge, I think it's worth it (it's a public response to a rather angry letter from a neighbour accusing the poster's author of conspiring to murder a bear, calling him septic scum and suggesting he goes "back east").
Protest advert in central San Francisco.

What clever icons of the times - I love the ponderous irony of the response to the complaint about leaving rubbish out: he was clearly in the wrong but a combative response was all he could manage. Is this sort of thing a result of Americans having guns or a cause?And what an insight into America from the handwiting on the bakery sign - and on the bear one, too. Call me a graphologist if you want to - but I'll drill you full of lead if you do. Keep out of the crossfire, Fran!
