This Needs a Caption…

By Hemant Mehta

When Catholics were rallying for “religious freedom” on Friday, members of the Freedom From Religion Foundation were counter-protesting right alongside them in Madison, Wisconsin:

That last one seems worthy of a caption… What is the yellow-shirt-wearing “liberal media” guy telling FFRF co-president Dan Barker?

    Excellent! That’s awesome! Wish I could have been there!

  • Looks something like “This is one nation under GAWD!!! If you don’t like it, get out!”

  • “When you guys need a break, there’s a church down the street handing out free water bottles.”

  • “Just remember you nephew still goes to church!….”  

  • The rally point for people with red bordered signs is over there by the fire pit and trash heap.

  • newavocation

    See those water canons over there? We are going to wash you heretics off our god fearin nation!

  • I more worried about the first photo, that is some brave woman having her baby so close to an atheist!

  • The porto-potties are just over there…

  • “Now! I am going to be waiting on there for Jesus to come when you decide to change your mind.”

  • Kris

    “So, you say the boundary of your personal space is over there?”

  • Is that before or after the money collection box?

  • TiltedHorizon

    “See that guy over there?”, pointing to a large angry looking man. “If not for the fact that god says it is wrong, I would have him curb stomp you.”

  • Aside from your deluded, Satanic, Communist sign, you look like a decent fellow. Say, isten . . . my car’s parked over there about a block. Got time for a quicky?

  •  I’d say “touche,” except that in my experiences of churches handing out free water bottles (to all and sundry, not just members), they were actually free. Never saw the box . . .

  • If you don’t like it…leave….

  • Chague83

    “You better get your non-God-fearing butt outta here, before I take you over there and bend you over!”

  • I think the second picture needs a caption.

    “ANGRY CHRISTIAN, I choose you!  Now use BREATH WEAPON!!!!!”

  • “My gun’s right over there in my truck. I really ought to give you a 200th trimester abortion.”

  • Deven Kale

    “Hey look, it’s one of them Brachi-o-sores!”

  • Kevin_Of_Bangor

    Tits or GTFO

    uhh . . . yeah . . . he looks like he’s offering a water bottle . . . 

  • fett101

    “Pull my finger”

  • James

    “Did you see Spiderman 3? I thought it was okay.”

  • Sindigo

    That sounds scarily accurate.

  • “Someday, all of this will be yours.”

  • he’s saying, “my brain escaped and ran off…, i think it went that way.”

  • You just have to listen to them explain that Jesus is the water of life before they’ll give you the actual water.

  • Borax

    “If I were a priest that is the kid I would molest”

  • CelticWhisper

     D&D meets Pokemon?

    “Christian rolled a natural 1!  It’s not very effective…”

  • “Why did FFRF make signs that say the same thing twice in small hard to read letters rather than saying it once in bigger letters? I had to get this close just to read it. My print shop is right over there..let me fix that for you.”

  • Gus Snarp

    I have no caption, but I just don’t understand the anger that makes you get up that close to somebody’s face (third picture), and it scares me.

  • “Well, the nearest Starbucks, is down the road to blocks on the left hand side of the road.”

  • “OBJECTION!”

  • “My teeth…did you see them over there?”

  • What the Christians told ME when I attended a similar rally was that if my mother had used birth control it would make ME oppose it the way they did.  Or something like that.

    I was the only atheist “out” there at the rally in the Bible belt of California.

  • Coyotenose

     Maybe she just doesn’t like her kid very much?

  • Coyotenose

     Oh thank Dog I wasn’t drinking anything when I read that.

  • Coyotenose

     IS he angry and invading Barker’s personal space because he’s angry, though? It’s bright out and there’s a crowd. He might be squinting from the sunlight and getting close enough that they can actually hear one another.

    But yeah, he’s probably having a rage fit because logic is hard. Just his stupid hat button suggests such.

  • They’re not signs, they’re repurposed bumper stickers.  But, yeah.

  • Bo Tait

    Pointer:”Leo and I used to wash our cars just over there. It was a 427, you know. Green.  He and Margey would take it to the crick on days like this. ”
    Sign guy:”Who are you? Who is Leo? What?”

    “That’s  my wife in the burka over there in the black tent.”

  • scinquiry

    I pooped my pants right over there when I saw your sign.
