| Message | Concerning debate on proposal 7 One of our laws state that EVERYBODY is open to advertising, that includes Churches, Mosques, Synogogues, etc. Look, this bill isn't an extreme. We just don't believe that a couple should be allowed to have sex outside of an elementary school, or that people should be allowed to desecrate our flag and still live here, if you don't love our great nation, leave. |
