homegrown boycotts

Fascinating insights into the mentality of various New Yorkers can frequently be found taped on lampposts or stuck inside the transparent front covers of streetside boxes for the Village Voice, New York Press, and Learning Annex. It is a uniquely American phenomenon that hearkens back to Colonial days of pamphleteers. Fotoblogger snapped this one in Chelsea, which apparently concerns a rather bizarre situation that an apparently elderly person wishes to protest—on perhaps appropriately peach-colored paper with hot pink tape. The penmanship alone suggests deep distress; note the word "violently" was violently double-underlined.
