Caravans, here! SHITLER caravans every Saturday morning in a Blue enclave of a Red state

Haven’t been out hardly at all like everybody else for the past 4-5 months, only for groceries/prescriptions, lately occasionally through some fast food drive-throughs, but almost never on a Saturday/Sunday. There had been local news for about a month about SHITLER meet-ups on Saturdays downtown in their vehicles with SHITLER and U.S. flags, which would then caravan up the area for 40 miles to the next 100K size town.

I hadn’t paid attention but today I needed to go and was freaked when I passed and was passed by a string of vehicles with the flags and honking horns. Then there was an area with the Wingnuts standing along the curb of a big box store, waving their signs and yelling to the traffic. I lowered my window and gave a thumb DOWN and yelled, “BOO-ooo!” And some wingnut dude yelled something back.

Am very -------what? Disturbed, irked, pissed, what?!1 Gotta keep reminding myself that Free Speech is not just for me and mine!

****** Am sitting back now to see what nit-picking, pooh-poohing, deflecting will come!

they lay straight up, pierce the tire but fly out after a short distance... hard to see on the pavement. But I wouldn't do a thing like that, bad karma isn't something I'd want to tempt.

Do you think they’re doing it to Social distance? I do. They’re doing it to keep from getting COVID-19. Why else?
