Has anyone living in a red area of the country noticed neighbors

[bush_is_wacko]

putting red lightbulb's in their front porch lights?

My next door neighbor is and Evangelical preacher and he has them and I noticed another neighbor that I have had dealings with in the past doing the same. The other neighbor is one of those NASCAR rednecks, so it certainly wouldn't surprise me if it is some kind of "solidarity" with bushitler movement.

I was thinking about buying a blue light for my front porch and getting a few others for some of my other neighbor's that I know are Kerry supporter's just to see if the Evangelical noticed it.

I live in a neighborhood of about 500 houses and have only seen two people with these red lights but both of them fit the thug profile.

1. Maybe they're showing their support for White House Whore

Gannon????

[Zeke]

21. Just Thinking Aloud...

Maybe they're very strong insect repellant & killing lights?

[bush_is_wacko]

24. I've heard that train of thought too, but in Colorado our bugs die off or

go inside during the winter. We don't really have very many even in the summertime but virtually NONE in the winter time. Lights went up in November and haven't come down since.

34. is it a Faith based Iniative "Temple Prostitutes" ?

[Misunderestimator]

2. That's pretty funny.... advertising themselves as a house of prostitution

(edited for typo)

[IronLionZion]

5. hehe that's what I was thinking, Red light district!

bwahaha!

[bush_is_wacko]

13. I know! that was my initial reaction too. That was how prostitutes

used to advertise! I think that practice was stopped because the authorities got wind of it. Maybe they'll start looking into that practice again?

If my neighbor didn't have little kids living in the house I'd think the prospect of the police knocking on his door to check up on his nighttime activities was kind of funny, but I wouldn't want his children to be scared.

3. With the economy going the way it is, maybe they are looking for extra $$

and starting up home businesses? :7

[bush_is_wacko]

22. Much as I despise my neighbor's political and religious interpretations

he is a Greek God of a man, truly. I wonder how his wife would feel about his swinging nature? She is the epitome of a quiet little house mouse. I think she would be willing to overlook an awful lot just to be perceived as the "perfect" little wife.

4. Inviting Bulldog Guckert over, perhaps?

If you have a neighborhood or homeowner's association, perhaps a gentle reminder about what "red-light district" means might be in order.

[bush_is_wacko]

17. Alas, I live in one the last bastions of unicorporated and non-regulated

neighborhoods left in the state of Colorado! Love the tax breaks, but honestly my neighbors can do just about anything they want with their property!

In fact both the neighbors in question have been particularly voiceferous about OTHER neighbors not keeping their yards up and such!

So far they have effectively been told to shut their traps and leave their neighbors alone.

The Evangelical is literally surrounded by Kerry supporters so he probaly feels a little isolated.

Myabe a little note letting him know what the red light REALLY stands for would be effective?

6. I always thought red lights meant a whore house - thus the term "red light

district." But to answer your question, yes, I did see a neighbor with a red porch light and just laughed to myself that he didn't know what it stood for. It never entered my head that it had anything to do with politics.

[John Q. Citizen]

7. Maybe the red lights are some kind of sex for sale deal? N/T

[RoyGBiv]

8. V-Day

I know some people that do this regularly for Valentines Day.

[bush_is_wacko]

19. Lights went up in November and are still there. I thought it was

a Christmas thing originally so I didn't really connect it to politics but the rest of their Christmas lights have long since disappeared!

[RoyGBiv]

25. Yeah ...

That sounds like a sign of Idiot Solidarity then.

[Benhurst]

9. He must be doing it as a sign of support for "Jeff Gannon". One

whore supporting another.

[wishlist]

10. Probably just coincidence. I have left wing neighbors with red lights

You can be sure if this is some kind of RW indicator, my LW neighbor will yank out their red lights in lightning speed

[atommom]

11. When I lived in a college town, I often saw people doing this

while they were holding house parties. But wingnuts being what they are, they might have stolen the idea from the college students and the whorehouses. ;)

[apple_ridge]

12. It's a NAMBLA thing.

[Misunderestimator]

14. Is that a joke, or a non-sequitor?

[blondeatlast]

16. Do tell.

Seriously.

[Infantalism]

15. not here

[pop goes the weasel]

18. simple explanation

The red lights aren't supposed to attract as many bugs. Yeah, yeah, why don't they buy the yellow bug lights instead? Heck if I know, but people have doing this for my whole lifetime.

[bush_is_wacko]

20. It is the dead of winter here. We have no bugs during the winter.

Even the spiders have died off or moved inside by now and as I posted above the lights went up in November, the beginning of winter, and haven't come down since.

[pop goes the weasel]

32. well then

Maybe they are keeping their snakes warm. :)

[bigendian]

23. Why don't you ask them? n/t

:kick:

[bush_is_wacko]

26. The guy is a bit of a trouble maker IMO. I avoid him as much as possible

his wife is a church mouse but doesn't seem to have much of a brain if you know what I mean. One of the neighbor's had to press charges against him for literally trying to strangle her teenage son because he (the preacher) thought the kid had stolen a cap on his water sprinkler. My husband still speaks to him occasionally, but I won't even look at him.

Solidarity for a fellow mom and the bruises around my neighbor kids neck have made me steer clear. BTW, he got off with a "warning" and "community service."

[DemoTex]

27. Showing solidarity with the Bu$h Whore House.

[me b zola]

36. No way! Is that Bulldog??

If it is then you are right--our Monica moment! It looks like an expensive suit,though. Are you sure, how are you sure?? Come on, out with the details!!

[freestyle]

30. Red lights used to advertise brothels

And they probably still do. Or they could be half-assed valentine's day decorations.

[No Exit]

31. Great. Just great. The Bush dumbshits are lighting up their homes like

"God's Little Whorehouse", and now we have to light up ours with the K-Mart Blue Light Special.

35. Maybe they are really supporting "Gannon" and gay prostitution?

Makes sense to me. Anyway, if we spread the opinion that we consider those red lights to be in support of "Gannon" how many will they put up?
You know, it's time for us to DEFINE what the opposition is doing. They way they do to Dems.
