Things were a little hateful around the area of 606 Sanchez Street in San Francisco a few days back when people could see a large, fuchsia “F*CK MORMONS” banner from all around. While some caution against starting a holy war, others aren’t as circumspect.
The whole affair is still the talk of the town.

But lo, the offending message got taken down lickedy-split post-haste, even on a quasi holiday. Here’s the same scene from this afternoon:
See? The houseboat house is now message-free. Credit for getting the sign down might go to Michael Thomas, a blogfather who seems to have a lot of pull in the area.
[UPDATE: Joe Vazquez burns the shoe leather and basically confirms the above here, but he also garners a flurry of quotes from the engineer in question.]
On to new bidness, the next big rally. They’re calling it the Million Gay March, or something. It should be under sunny skies, regardless.

Dude, read your sources before posting sh*t.
“See? The houseboat house is now message-free. Credit for getting the sign down might go to Michael Thomas, a blogfather who seems to have a lot of pull in the area.”
Michael Thomas was the owner of the place who put the sign up.
Dude, I IS the source.
Michael Thomas was the owner of the place who put the sign up and Michael Thomas got the sign down.
too bad the sign is down. I think it should be put back up now. That sign puts out only a miniscule fraction of hate compared to the active hate spreading tactics of those cult freaks.
