And yet this backwoods **** kicker thinks they need to be defended. And from who? Who do you think they need defending from? If you didn't think they needed defending from someone you wouldn't support the sign.
BLM and the Rainbow Coalition actually have many, many dissenters. This sheriff has to make up dissenters to defend his views against.
You don't think there are many dissenters to saying Merry Christmas or to the belief in God? He isn't giving you a debate on the merits. He keeps it simple....this is how it's done, and if you don't like it, leave

No. There are people who think it's better to say things like "Happy Holidays" to encompass everyone(since obviously not everyone celebrates Christmas) and there are people who don't believe in God(such as myself), but no one is saying that people can't say "Merry Christmas" or worship the God of their choosing. He imagines a war on Christmas, Christianity and American soldiers because he's an idiot. Idiots believe idiotic things without any proof, like a war being waged on Christmas because of coffee cups and peanut butter trees that aren't shaped enough like trees.

I dont have a problem with the sign. He looks like a guy with a sense of humor actually!
No, he doesn't.
He looks like the kind of guy that would pull over a car for no reason other than they have out of state plates from states north of the Mason Dixon line or another part of the country some of the good ole boys frown upon. You're not speeding or breaking any laws, they just want to bust balls, they let you go, but they pull you over for no reason. They may even ask you " are you thinking of moving here", what that has to do with driving, IDK.
Unless you have experienced that in the south(I did in SC) it's kind of surreal.

The fact that Roscoe P Coltrane's evil twin felt the compulsion to put up this sign at all says everything you need to know about him and his ignorant, uneducated, backwoods, moonshine swilling brethren.
Who put Cletus the slack jawed sheriff in charge of who gets to live in his community? If there was a need for a sign at all (there wasn't), surely it would have been better if it read "Welcome to the county. Do whatever you want, however you want. Think what you like, however you like. Just be nice to others and don't break the law"
It beggars belief that anyone would try to leap to the defence of a man who thinks he's the arbiter of what other people should do, and how they should think.
The irony is, if you were to ask Sheriff Billy Bob, he'd tell you (whilst saluting the flag) that he believes in good ole Murkin freedom. Mostly the freedom to tell others they're not free to live in 'his' town.
This really made me laugh. Your moniker states that you are from New Jersey. If I remember correctly, even your own State Governor made a comment about New Jersey and rude.
Anyone who thinks there's a war on Christmas, that they're not allowed to say "God bless America," or that they're not allowed to salute American troops is an idiot.
Yes. Straw men here.
