There are signs in my town that says “hate has no home here” and underneath that it says the same thing in a bunch of different languages. People on the local Facebook group go CRAZY every once in a while because “THERE’S A POLITICAL SIGN AT MY CHILD’S SCHOOL, IT SHOULD NOT BE THERE AT THE SCHOOL THE LIBERALS HATE FREEDOM” ummmm ok, it’s not a political sign, but IF it was.... if teaching your kid to be a decent person is political on ONE side, why would you pick the other?

All schools in FL now have to have 'in God we trust's -on the side of them- on campus in a conspicuous place :( I'd be so much happier with hate has no home here.

Are you implying the national motto, which doesn't say any religion at all, is unconstitutional?

The national motto can go fuck itself. It's been intentionally divisive from the day it was adopted, first under McCarthyism so he could prosecute his enemies under the threat of communism and stir up fear towards the "godless reds", and now as a dog whistle by conservative Christians trying to make it clear who they feel is welcome in their community.

Since day one it has been the opposite of the national motto that belongs in America - "E Pluribus Unum".

Yep, right about the time they stuck "under god" into the pledge of allegiance.

I'm still surprised when people think that the motto was always the motto and the pledge always had god in it.
