Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Thursday, November 12, 2009

"Don't believe in God? You're not alone." was the message on a billboard put up by the Cincinnati Coalition of Reason (Cin CoR) on Reading Road at 12th Street, one block south of Liberty Street in Cincinnati. It went up on Tuesday but by Wednesday afternoon the group was told it would have to come down again. Lamar Advertising, the company that owns the billboard, leases the land on which it stands and the landowner wanted it taken down. He had been receiving death threats.

He had been receiving death threats.

Christianity-religion of peace.

don't sweat it Xians-Joe Stalin made them take down signs he didn't like too.

"...bigotry against people who don't believe in a god is still very real in America."

Bigotry against people who do believe in a god is still very real in America. (As amply and repeatedly evidenced here in this forum.)

Bigotry against people who believe in god in a manner that differs from yours is still very real in America.

Let's just cut to the chase here:

Bigotry is still very real in America.

The article doesn't state that the death threats were confirmed, so its could just as likely be that the landowner made the story up because he didn't like the sign himself.

LAMAR is a big outfit. It's possible the death threats story was a cop-out, but it would have been easier to say it was due to client pressure.

Advertising bucks are few and far between.

God damn those bigots.

Bigotry against people who do believe in a god is still very real in America.

Yeah, I see hundreds of death threats here against Nanc every day.

More fine, upstanding Christians sharing the love of Jesus Christ...

Maybe it was a cope-out by the leasing company. But, the fact that nobody would be at all surprised by a death threat for the bill board is telling enough.

If this guy was receiving death threats (I'm guessing they were over the phone) why wouldn't he tell the cops and have them trace the calls and have the nutbars arrested?

This story doesn't make sense.

But, the fact that nobody would be at all surprised by a death threat for the bill board is telling enough.

Is it? People call in death threats to players before a big game. Nobody is surprised by that either. What does that tell you?

Newsflash Schwanz, people do crazy things. Are you surprised?

Like Chairborne's moldy act and obvious lies. Hope I'm not like him when I'm his age
