The Missouri State Democratic Party has been sending teams out across the state to resupply county committees with yard signs, 4×4 signs, and 4 x 8 signs. This afternoon one such team made a delivery in Warrensburg.
Drive by, after yelling “MAGA, MAGA…”
Overnight someone removed the Biden/Harris yard sign from our front yard. We acquired a 4×4 replacement this afternoon. It’ll go up on steel fence posts tomorrow morning.
By the way, in Missouri stealing political yard signs is a Class 4 Election Offense, punishable by up to a year in jail and/or a $2,500.00 fine.
We mark all of our yard signs in permanent marker with “Stolen from [address]”. You steal our signs, don’t hang on to them. You don’t want to get caught with stolen property.

This afternoon:
“God, guns, and country.”
Someone else is the real dumbass.
Limp.
“In our America all people are equal, love wins, Black lives matter, immigrants and refugees are welcome, disabilities are respected, women are in charge of their bodies, people and planet are valued over profit, diversity is celebrated.”
They’re not saying the same thing, are they?
Imagine the sign density in late October and early November.
At noon yesterday at Mill Creek Park next to the 47th Street entrance of the Plaza several hundred individuals participated in a rally and march (through the Plaza) in solidarity with hundreds of similar women’s marches across the country advocating for women’s rights and commemorating the movement and the large 2017 nationwide march.
After marching to and through the Plaza the demonstrators returned to Mill Creek Park to rally, chant, and picket along 47th Street. The march was scheduled from noon to 1:00 p.m. – by 1:15 p.m. the park was empty.
“Wanna change the world? Vote!”
“The future is nasty”
“Men of quality do not fear equality”
“Vote for women”
“I’m with her”
“Women 2020…”
Everything I do, I do it with passion. If I gotta be a bitch, I’ma be a bad one.”
“I’ve seen better cabinets at Ikea!”
“I’m only an angry feminist when you’re an ignorant, mysogynist, asshole.”
