ReplyDeleteYour really going to attack the Shriners? That should end well.

Didn't say it shouldn't be considered vulgar or not. I'm saying it's a dumb move to drag the Shriners through what has obviously become a personal vendetta against others.
ReplyDeleteI am more concerned with the letter writer's motives. Such as: Why was the Chamber of Commerce called to protest the float!?
