On a recent trip down the mountain I was upset to see very few FOXX signs but multitudes for Kennedy. Upon my return I asked why that was and found out it is against the law to put out signs along Hwy 421. A law Billy Kennedy is able to break with no remorse. Yet another example of Democrat double standards........UGH
There are no signs up along the Doc Watson highway. I made sure of that this morning on my trip back from the farmers market in W. Jeff. Maybe Foxx supporters are just lazy? idk
I don't often agree with Mister Williamson but I join him in deploring the defacing of ANY political signs.
I drove up the mountain on 421 this afternoon and noticed probably a dozen GOSS signs, on both sides of the county line that were similarly defaced.
I am very thankful that we live in a society where all of us can post signs favorable to our positions and supporting our candidates.....even signs which oppose the party in power. Try that in North Korea!
I strongly resent it when someone decides that another citizen's viewpoint should not be allowed and either defaces or removes the sign.
It happens on both sides and I hope that whoever does it. Republican or Democrat, gets caught and PROSECUTED!
J.W. Williamson was the founding editor in 1972 of the Appalachian Journal: A Regional Studies Review, which he edited until July of 2000. He has taught college classes in Appalachian history, cultural politics, and literature, and he has lectured widely on the pop-culture history of "Appalachia" in the American consciousness. His books include Interviewing Appalachia, Southern Mountaineers in Silent Films, and Hillbillyland: What the Mountains Did to the Movies and What the Movies Did to the Mountains. He has won the Thomas Wolfe Award given by the Western North Carolina Historical Society, the Laurel Leaves Award given by the Appalachian Consortium, a special Weatherford Award given by Berea College, and the Cratis Williams-James Brown Award given by the Appalachian Studies Association.

Defacement, Wilkes County style.

Yes, we saw some like this a few years ago aimed at the Democrats' opposition.
'Not to mention some signs were stolen.
What would Jesus deface?
You mean when he wasn't using a whip to run the thieving moneychangers out of the temple?
I would say He put a few stripes on some of these banksters' hides.
You mean when He wasn't GENUINELY helping the sick and beating the hypocritical and arrogant Sanhedrin and Pharisees at their own games?
He could be righteously angry at times.
