Put my Biden sign out today (Shoutout to TomSlick)

From the reddest of rural America... I went for a Sunday drive and saw my first Biden sign around here today.

I stopped and rang the doorbell. (I'm such a badass Mofo )

A very nice lady answered the door, we put our masks on and had a great conversation. She ended up giving me two yard signs.

I came home and placed my Biden for President sign in my rural yard.

Nothing but trump flags all around me.

Yep, I am a badass.

PS: props to DUer TomSlick. He posted yesterday about placing his yard sign in a pretty red area as well. I dont feel so alone, so thanks!

Trump flags EVERYWHERE for the past year.

No MF45 yard signs though.

I sent my aunt a picture of it and she said she cant decide if Im really really brave ...or really really dumb.

Either way....the boonies of Arkansas are represented!

Edit: and apparently so are the spelling-impaired

MF45 supporters are assholes who rip up signs and destroy them.

I now take them up to the house every night. Tried booby traps and other devices but to no avail.

You might be surprised at who does it too, feeling empowered to take them from you.

Save for mine I put up a few days ago. Made an instant friend as a neighbor who I hadn’t meant came over to show approval and talk.

Zero Trump signs in my neighborhood. 1 Bernie sign from a long time ago that never came down. And now 1 Biden sign, mine.

If I put it way out by the road, it would probably be gone overnight.

on a busy road in a red town. I would be afraid to put it in my front yard for fear of someone shooting at my house. If I put it in my backyard the deer would probably destroy it. They are destructive little (actually big) buggers. My next door neighbors would appreciate it though.
