War, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing! (Say it again, good God). Thankfully we live in the protest capital of the world (editor's note: that might be self described) and we know our fair share of protests chants. But the times they are a changin', my friends. And "Hell No We Wont Go" just isn't going to cut the anti-war mustard anymore. Nowadays, with America's ever decreasing attention span, protesters need to get creative in order to get people to hear their message. And some have better luck than others. Here is a list of some of our personal faves. Enjoy!
So China, did you really think you were going to get away with bringing your torch through San Francisco without a protest? HA! We live for protests! In fact, the other day I was part of an anti-protest protest. That's right. My sign said: "NO MORE STUPID SIGNS!" So anyway, when the Olympic torch made it's way through the City by the Bay, it was met with some pretty awesome/awful protests. And we don't mess around when it comes to protest signs. My favorite one (as seen by our fan, Ms. Erin Walsh) got right to the point: "China can suck my balls!" Yes, folks. That is a 100 % real San Francisco anti-torch protest sign! Gotta love this city! Here are some others:
Who Would Jesus Bomb? – I mean really, who would he bomb?
Buck Fush! – Creative, almost as creative as the sign for French Connection.
The last time we listened to a Bush, we wandered in the desert for 40 years. - This one is a little wordy, and I think it can only apply to Jewish anti-war protesters, right? But it's still clever.
The only Bush I trust is my own! - Seriously, you wanna brag about your bush? How about "Let's wax out Bush!" or something...
Make (enter anything) not WAR! - It’s traditional, it’s simple, it gets the point across ,it knows how to make you feel warm at night. Let's try some: Make chocolate not WAR! Make out not WAR! Make Oscar picks not WAR!
(On a five year old) More Candy, Less War - Now that's just plain adorable. Who could continue a war after seeing that??
Anything war can do, peace can do better. - Do I smell a sing-a-long coming up? I think so!
