ARIZONA REPUGS: "CONFORM! NO DISSENT!" (paraphrased)

[UdoKier]

Check out the wonderfully jingoistic billboards in Arizona.

(sigh) I have to drive through that hellhole to get home for the holidays...

[Systematic Chaos]

1. We need to call the SHIT outta that number at the bottom

I wanna give them a bright, sunny "F**K YOU from your friends in Vegas" on my next day off.

[aquart]

2. Dear me. If it needs a billboard...

The cry must be quite loud.

[Gemini Cat]

4. I agree!

Various somebodies must be getting a little scared or otherwise they wouldn't have the need to plaster this 'order' on billboards!

[Lisabtrucking]

3. Lets all call the Number on the board and tell them how Hitler like it is.

[bluestateguy]

5. The number on the board is [phone]

:smoke:

[City Lights]

16. According to reverse phone number, it's an AT&T wireless number.

No other information is available.

[NoodleBoy]

6. I see that when I drive to my girlfriend's house

Makes me sick, especially since it does the whole equating not voting for Bush with hating American troops thing.

Jingoism at its finest. Fuck this city.

[BulletproofLandshark]

7. I Don't Advocate Vandalism

But if someone were to deface, burn, or knock down that billboard, I wouldn't lose much sleep over it.

[NuttyFluffers]

10. it does tend to scream for a big "Seig Heil" scrawled on it, doesn't it?

who knows what lucky graffiti artist will get to christen this beauty? but i'd love to see the end result. hopefully they'll be witty artists.

[Ruffhowse]

11. 2 words---paintball gun

[Der Blaue Engel]

8. OMG. Hanging head in shame.

Why must my home state embarrass me like this? Someone please tell me these were all in the Phoenix area and that the madness is contained in the freeptastic part of the state.

[necso]

9. I understand that they have a new slogan

for the next generation of billboard messages: "Believe, Obey, Spend."

It would go very nicely with some of the * pics from today.

[shadowknows69]

12. a movie comes to mind

anyone see John Carpenter's "They Live"? How many of these signs don't we see???<cue twilight zone theme>

[giant_robot]

25. I was thinking the same thing

Go here and watch some of the clips. The parallels are scary.

[OneTwentyoNine]

13. I've got the first $25.00 for our own Outdoor sign,lets get it going....

This is Bullshit Nazism plain and simple. Paid for by "Arizona citizens"??? Oh yeah right....

Set it up on DU,I'll send in the first $25.00,lets do our own advertising.

[shadowknows69]

14. I run a small ad agency/vid production company

I could make tv ads, not gonna do much good where I am though in true blue NY state but just to throw it out there. I'd be happy to shoot any footage Mr. Moore might need for his next movie as well ;O)

[tsuki]

15. Viacom? Do they own the billboard or the message?

[City Lights]

17. Disgusting.

I think I would :puke: if I saw this with my own eyes. Seeing pigboy along the road is painful enough. Seeing this would be too much. Hopefully my path won't cross this POS sign. I'll have my middle finger ready to go, just in case. :evilgrin:

[UdoKier]

18. Kicking for the morning people.

The land of Barry Goldwater has apparently gotten WORSE.

[genieroze]

24. Barry Goldwater was a true conservative.

"Remember that a government big enough to give
you everything you want is also big enough to take
away everything you have"
Barry Goldwater


"You don't have to be straight to be in the military;
you just have to be able to shoot straight"
Barry Goldwater



"Nixon was the most dishonest individual I have
ever met in my life. He lied to his wife, his family,
his friends, his colleagues in the Congress, lifetime
members of his own political party, the American people
and the world"
Barry Goldwater


This is my favorite

Our problem is with ... the religious extremists ...
who want to destroy everybody who doesn't agree with
them. I see them as betrayers of the fundamental principles
of conservatism. A lot of so-called conservatives today
don't know what the word means. (1994)
Barry Goldwater

SWEET

[proud patriot]

19. Message to bush and his followers of the golden calf

"Unite This !"

[Dora]

20. Please tell me this is on the west side?

I grew up in Tempe (living in TX now). This billboard is just screaming "Grand Ave" at me.

Where is the billboard?

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

21. If you close your eyes...

You can almost hear the goosestepping and the crowds chanting "Sieg Heil!"

I fear for what America is becoming.

[ComerPerro]

22. Let's say it loud and clear: Anyone who opposed Clinton in the 90s

Is anti-American and is likely guilty of treason.

[FormerOstrich]

23. What are the major crossroads? n/t

[lies and propaganda]

26. HOLY SHIT!!!

Where is this?
I live in Tempe, the college town right outside of Phx. I called the number on the billboard and it was a freeper that said "Invalid pager."

They must have known....
