Pet Peeve #207

Is there no place to hide from pollution?  I’m talking about political pollution!  Are we so polarized that we must carry our political leanings onto the beach with us?  Does beautiful weather on a July Sunday afternoon compel true-believers to strut their opinions?  What is the point anyway?  Do they think they will change somebody’s opinion?  Do they think this is just another silly game?

Of course, in a state where you can carry a gun into church, why wouldn’t you demonstrate your politics on a beach?

Merely being legal . . . does not mean it is in good taste!
