The Contradiction-iest Things I Saw Today

I drove by this house in Nordeast Minneapolis a couple weeks ago. I feel like they are sending a mixed message of hopefulness and reactionary-ness:


PS: I loved their homemade sign! Homemade signs say so much more to me than a factory pressed official sign. It says "I am so much behind this idea that I took the time to make a sign myself." I suppose it could also mean "I am to shy (or cheap) to approach the campaign for a sign."

You know, the way that I drew the picture it looks almost like they are asking Obama to stay out of their yard. Ha! I don't think that is what they meant, but I could be wrong!

Maybe they mean it as an anti-drug stance?
