It seems like a reasonable law. I'm surprised it wasn't passed before now.
I wish they would protest in my home town. I already have a plan. Put on a clown suit, put together a parody sign in their style with the three colors, and the sign would read, "God hates figs! Mark 11:14. Come Hither or Wither!"
The scripture reference would be to this part of the Bible:
Quote:Book of Mark
11:12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
11:13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
11:14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
[ ... ]
11:20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
11:21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
11:22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
The lesson here is that God hates figs! Jesus rebuked the tree saying that no man should eat of that fruit ever again. And yet, we, as Americans, tolerate fig eaters and how they continue their disgusting lifestyle despite a clear commandment from the Lord Almighty. Consequently, Jesus is killing our troops overseas, just as the Lord did in the days of the OT when he would allow foreign nations to conquer the Israelites whenever they had strayed from the path. But if we harken unto the Lord yatta yatta yatta...
I would call myself Phelpsey the Clown.
No, no, God hates figs! FIGS!
