A SIGN IN A STORE WINDOW

"WE WOULD RATHER DO BUSINESS
WITH 1000 ALQAEDA TERRORISTS
THAN WITH ONE SINGLE AMERICAN"

This sign was prominently displayed in the window of a business in Philadelphia. You are probably outraged at the thought of such an inflammatory statement.

However, We are a society which holds Freedom of Speech as perhaps our greatest liberty.

And after all, it is just a sign.

What kind of business would post such a sign???
















Answer: A Funeral Home (Who said morticians had no sense of humor?) :D

I question the validity of the report. If a business owner did display such a sign, something only designed to inflame emotions during wartime, then free speech or not I would hope for the sign to be taken down, rolled into a tube, and forcibly inserted into the owner's a** by the means of a boot.

Ha ha, ignore my previous post, I didn't see the funeral home part. Got a little riled up there at the thought of some quik-e-mart with that sign in the window.

Y'know what bugs me about snopes? They get too serious with that stuff. Someone takes what is obviously a joke (very funny one at that), words it into a more "MOF" format, and mr Snopes decides to leave something inappropriate on the poopdeck.

Nice to know when the wool is getting pulled tho.

Actually last year, the same thing was going around with a picture of the sign saying that by itself, and then the sign next to the mortician sign. I think it actually made it to this site a time or two.
