signs

Thanks to Eliza for sending:

“This contractor’s yard sign on 11th St NW between T and U made me do a complete double take before I cracked up over it. This just seems like a marketing fail. Might need to go back to the focus group….”

Valerie sends last night:

“Outside Sudhouse on U Street. You would think that with all the conversation about #metoo, this wouldn’t be what they chose to advertise.”

Thanks to David for letting me know about Sudhouse’s positive responses:

I am donating $500 to CASS immediately AND we have scheduled to retrain our staff and myself. This is so sad and unacceptable but I do hope that you forgive me.

“Dear PoPville,

My partner found this card located in the display window of a newspaper stand @ 15/K NW. the trash was promptly disposed of – just a heads up.”

Ed. Note: I blurred out the website because screw these modern day Haman wannabes.

Also props to American University who is dealing with some similar nonsense:

“As I have said before, as an institution we stand against racism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, and anti-immigration. We believe in human dignity, equal rights for all and preservation of free expression. This sadly continues to make American University a target for acts of cowardice and bigotry that are disturbingly global. We will stand together strongly against these acts that are intended to frighten and divide our community. They will not divide us.”
