Anarchist Flyers

As I was bicycling to work today, there were hand-written fliers on nearly every telephone pole and sign pole along my route. I figured they were just yard sale signs.  A man from the City was removing them.  Immediately, I thought him a bully! Yes, he was just doing his job but whats the big deal - I wondered, is the City really using man-power to remove yard sale signs? Upon closer inspection it appeared that some kind of crusade happened in the night. Almost every flier had a different quote!  Below are 3 fliers I snagged before they all got taken down.... (on the 3rd flyer, notice they spelled perfect with a purr...cat lovers, one can assume?) I like that they quoted Lincoln and Payne. I enjoy the spirit of activism!

How interesting! I hope it made people think because...sometimes as a society I think we do to little of that...

very cool. You've peaked my interest as to what the others had to say. I love that they are not over the top sorts of quotes...quotes from good, respectable men...not some random rapper. Ya know?! Now those are Anarchy flyers that really grab your attention.
