I wonder what the effect of
I wonder what the effect of that sign was, compared to one that simply said
"Please stop flipping over and defacing the books about politicians. This bookshelf is not your blog."
which it seems to me would make the same point clear about not messing with library books, without touching off partisan free-for-alls like we see in this thread.
Bookstore
Pretty sure this is a picture taken at a bookstore not a library.
um...
Really...this is kind of ridiculous.
yay partisanship
Life would be a whole lot easier and more fun if we all just made out with each other all the time.
This is Stupid
Bill Maher said it best. American's are stupid. ANYONE who would vote for someone just by seeing a sign with their name on it deserves to be in a detention camp somewhere here. And their votes should be nullified. A minimum IQ should be needed to vote. Say 60?
Oooh so many nutters
The main point should be that if people are defacing the books then the bookstore needs some decent security/cctv!
This would be the same in a Library.
In the end
Can we agree that defacing books is a bad thing?

I would like to know so I can avoid it.
How Nice of the
How Nice of the conservatives...I would have moved all of THEIR books to the fiction section.
"A democrat blows, and a republican sucks"
Lewis Black folks.
Both parties are full of idiots, and both have individuals with respectable habits and ideas. I've seen liberals and conservatives do things like this, neither side being better. Get off your thrones people.
