    The signs exist, usually as militany bravado. I like this one because it pairs the dumb sign with America’s debilitating healthcare costs.

      So is it meant to be interpreted as a threat? As in if you break into my house I won’t call the police I’ll just shoot you.

      Isn’t that the same as a “trespasses will be shot” sign that’s been around for decades.

        I think it’s more like “we don’t need big gubment, we’re self sufficient”.

          It’s really a great sign because it sends multiple messages like: “I’m easily swayed by propaganda aimed at morons.” And “I need you to know my personal feelings about this because I’ve made it part of my identity while I scream about identity politics.”
