Discourse

It's our tendency to approach every problem as if it were a fight

between two sides. We see it in headlines that are always using

metaphors for war. It's a general atmosphere of animosity and

contention that has taken over our public discourse.

~ Deborah Tannen

I like it when someone is so passionate about something that they put up a sign about it. And then someone else is so passionate that they vandalize the sign. As in the example above where someone put up an anti-democrat sign and someone used shorthand to indicate that they would like to have a Follow Up conversation about the sign. Discourse rocks.

On a side note, I do believe that the sentence on the sign should have ended with question marks or at least one question mark and then the exclamation points since the words form a question and not a statement.
