Free speech or offensive?
Those are two viewpoints regarding three political billboards in Hanson that are getting the attention of everyone who drives by Sullivans Inc., a motorcycle accessories distributor off Route 27.
One shows a little girl raising her middle finger next to the message:
Thanks Obama. Youve spent my lunch money, my allowance, my inheritance, 35 years of future paychecks and my retirement. You Jerk. Vote Mitt Romney For 2012!
The finger is now covered in packing tape.
Some people say the sign makes them uncomfortable.
Its being offensive, one man told WBZ NewsRadio 1030 Thursday. I think you can send out the message without being this drastic.
Others say its free speech...

A personal attack?
What about that post would make you lash out in a personal manner, conservatives are not pleased with the degradation of our culture, especially involving children being used vulgarly on billboards.
Do you really want to mock Christ in your post as well?
I wasn’t “mocking” Christ in my post, genius, that’s why I didn’t capitalize Lord and Master. Not a MENSA member, are you? And since there are two teams and you’re against ours, I have to assume you love Obama.
Why the non stop persoanl attacks?
This post should not have have you lashing out in a personal manner.
“”I am old enough to remember when a billboard showing a child shooting the bird would have been brought down immediately by conservative Americans.””
If you disagree with my post, then tell me why, but lay off the personal attacks.
It’s the cumulative effect of all your asinine, disruptive posts. We’re trying to save this country from a second Obama term and you’re doing your damndest to get him re-elected. Of course we take it personally. Many of us have kids and don’t want them to live in some kind of Soviet or Nazi America. You, on the other hand, seem to have no problem with that. I will fight you and anyone like you with every fiber of my being. Now do you get it, Steven Hawking?
Do not carry your personal grudges throughout freerepublic.
post 18--I am old enough to remember when a billboard showing a child shooting the bird would have been brought down immediately by conservative Americans.
Post after post of personal attack, yet nothing related to the thread, or my post.
Go cry to Jim, I have other fish to fry.
and in your own yard too... now associations and group think are sinking our great nation...
political correctness has no place in american exceptionalism.
thank you for your service.

question? does the 2nd Division try harder?
i see the finger was added later. out of proportion for the little girl...
but still, she’s angelic and being exploited by the finger...
give her a tear and make obama’s actions objectionable.

The lesbian cadres there are devoted vagitarians, and they will find themselves more than welcome there..
That poor kid! Love the expression. Time was, taking him to such an event would have been a clear case of child abuse.
