A MAGA neighbor sent me another 'love' letter, anonymously of course

I still keep up my wonderful yard sign since Oct 2024

HATE WILL NOT
MAKE US GREAT

last Fall I received an anonymous letter that was also
addressed exactly the same, I only peeked through the
envelope by holding up to the light….
I could read it was something complaining about my “Hate sign”.
So I just added it to my small stack of hate letters I received over
the years about my DEMOCRATIC yard signs

Addressed merely to “Neighbor”
And with no return address

I never opened that first letter either.
Nor will I open this anonymous letter I just received

I’m glad my sign obviously still ‘bothers’ one of my wacko MAGA racist
neighbors.

I suspect it’s the MAGA Trump supporter who just put their
house for sale this week on my street.

My yard Sign is similar to this sign…..

I used to open them, and just throw away.
But years ago started to just ‘add to the pile’ of Republicans hate letters

I believe I received the most ‘hate’ letters during
Obama’s first presidential campaign.

And Lost track of how many of my Obama yard signs were stolen back then,
during Obama’s first run for president,, Maybe 5 or 6 yard signs were taken.

I eventually had to stake those Obama signs with multiple tent stakes
and tent cord, AND once or twice added some black roofing tar to all the
yard sign edges

Once they couldn’t remove my Obama sign because it was stakes and tied down with tent cord, so they just stomped on sign.

I take this as a badge of honor!

As I used to tell my ex: "Ty for calling me a b*itch. If you liked me, there would really be something wrong with me." And I meant it.

A relative of mine by marriage,
she died in her 90s about 10 years ago.

A Civil Rights attorney in Texas, Adelfa Callejo,
during her long lifetime she received 100s of vile anonymous letters,
death threats, etc.

And 100s and 100s of anonymous telephone hate calls.

————-
The Mexican government awarded her too.
“received the Ohtli award from the Mexican government”

I added several other signs and sprayed all of them with sticky glue. The Obama sign got it again the others were untouched. It goes to show you even vandals can learn.

I was in a very small town.
The dummy sending the letters made the mistake of writing one on a piece of paper that had his name on it. OOPSIE!

If his person had any balls they wouldn't be sending things anonymously.

Tell your postmaster. If it doesn't have postage on it, that's a bad thing.
