Guarentee your freedom of Speach in America!
Edited on Sat Sep-20-03 12:13 PM by DarkPhenyx
Use a foreign language. apparently, in order to ensure his message getting out on national TV Mr. Randy Sill (http://www.madpotter.com/) created a two sided sign which he carried at a Mariners game. The sign, which was written in Japanese kanji, read "Our President is a monkey's butt" and, if I remember correctly, "We are embarassed by our president". As an additional level of camoflage Mr. Sill included the jersey number of one of the Mariners players who happens to be Japanese. While the stadium security team wasn't very ammused by this stunt (they remived Mr. Sill during the 7th inning) the Japanese fans in the stadium winked, laughed, and in a few cases even stood and bowed as Mr. Sill paraded up and down the aisles with his sign.

1. Cool! The guy had moxie.
I'm surprised security managed to figure it out at all.
