    Good catch. That's probably where they got it, so they should have footnoted their own banner. What I can't figure out is what the hell kind of protest this is out in the woods some place. Who are they protesting to -- squirrels?

    Well, the guy seems to be casting a pretty wide net, so maybe he just carries it around everywhere, assuming it will apply to someone in the vicinity?
