An elderly neighbor who drives a van for a local church felt emboldened enough to march up to me when we had our Pride flag out, just to inform me that he was "watching us" and "knows what we're doing in there" and that he's got his eye on "anything suspicious that we might be doing."

So yes, these people exist. They've got intentions, all right, and even if they never actually carry out their wet dreams, they've very comfortable operating in a way that suggests there aren't consequences to being an asshole to your neighbors.

That being said, the same fool also had "Don't Blame Me, I Voted For Trump" flags up until the J6 committee subpoena was delivered, after which they came down.

I don't abide stupid people, but I hate COWARDLY stupid people even more.
