I'm all for freedom of speech, but depicting the President of the United States as Hitler offensive to me.
Having the KKK march down Main St. is perfectly legal as well, but very offensive. |

These are Larouchies. Followers of Lyndon Larouche. They are very nice, completely insane, but very nice. I can recall them calling for the impeachment of every president since Reagan. They may have called for other prior to that, but I was not aware of them prior to the 80's. They are a strange cult like group. Lyndon Larouche must be quite old by now. He has a whole basket full of crazy beliefs. For instance, the general equilibrium theory of neo-classical economics is a plot. Likewise the pitch of music is too high, a plot to ruin singers voices.
About once a year they wander into town and picket the post office. If its the anti-Obama stuff that bothers you, don't worry they said the same crap about Bush. They are basically members of a very creepy cult. The internet will have lots of info on them. |

LaRouche followers are a bunch of right-wing loonies.
They sit outside of post offices every so often and solicit donations from suckers. |

Radical Leftist group that is now an unclassifiable group according to Wiki Pedia: "The LaRouche movement is a political and cultural network promoting Lyndon LaRouche and his ideas. It has included many organizations and companies around the world, which campaign, gather information, and publish books and periodicals. The movement promotes a revival of classical art and a greater commitment to science; advocates the development of major economic infrastructure projects on a global scale; and calls for a reform of the world financial system to encourage investment in the physical economy and suppress financial speculation.
The movement originated in radical leftist student politics of the 1960s. It is often viewed now as an unclassifiable group. In the 1970s members allegedly engaged in street violence.[who?] In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of candidates, some with only limited knowledge or connection to LaRouche or the movement, ran as Democrats in the United States on the LaRouche platform.[1][2][3]
In 1988, LaRouche and 25 associates were convicted on fraud charges related to fund-raising. The movement called the prosecutions politically motivated. The movement was rejuvenated from the decline after the convictions by the creation of a youth cadre, the LaRouche Youth Movement, and by their opposition to the Bush/Cheney administration and the Obama health care reform plan.
LaRouche's wife, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, heads political and cultural groups in Germany connected with her husband's movement. There are also parties in France, Sweden, and other European countries, and branches or affiliates in Australia, Canada, the Philippines, and several Latin American countries. Estimates of the movement range from five hundred to one thousand members in the United States, spread across more than a dozen cities, and about the same number abroad. Members engage in political organizing, fund-raising, cultural events, research and writing, and internal meetings. It has been called a political cult by some journalists. According to reporters, members believe they are solely responsible for the protection of civilization and some work long hours for little pay to further their mission. The LaRouche movement has been accused of harassing public officials, politicians, journalists, ex-members, and critics. The movement has had a number of notable members." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaRouche_movement |

oh no - not cranbury - i cannot believe the nerve of these people coming to CRANBURY to set up. What are they thinking?? Do they not know that this town is so special and WE do NOT like having "others" come into OUR town. I think I am going to have to stay indoors until they leave our town. I am writing a letter to the mayor right now. This is unheard of. |

No you may not use the side door at Cranbury Pizza! FYI they plan to be at the post office every Friday from April through July, you won't be able to avoid it if you want to go to Gil and Berts. The reason for this is due to the high amount of signatures from Cranbury residents. |

Freedom of speech via peaceful demonstrations are one of the many rights that makes our country great. Let's not allow others with opposing views to poison the demeanor of our town. |

Peaceful demonstratiion is fine by me.
There will be significantly more demonstrations if what I am hearing rumored happensm removing the psot office to provide for a new library.
You will see me out there every day with signs.
When people are passionate about something, they have the right to express themselves and increase awareness. |
