YOU WILL RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH!!!!
Over the past several days, I've read a few reports that election officials in Connecticut have informed voters not to wear WWE merchendise to the voting booths in the upcoming election. According to what's being said, nobody will be denied a right to vote, but some voters might be asked to cover up a shirt with a jacket or go home and change shirts. I'm assuming some might be asked to take off a cap if they're wearing one. I understand if some don't care about politics and I understand if some are just rolling their eyes as the whole Stand up for WWE thing. However, I find this ruling rather disturbing in something of a broader picture than the WWE.
I've seen people wear shirts while waiting to vote saying things like God created AIDS to cure gay people or that doctors that perform abortions are murderers and should have their own families killed and it's been perfectly alright. But if I lived in Connecticut and wore a Stone Cold Steve Austin shirt or a John Cena baseball cap to the polls, I'd be asked to take it off just because Linda McMahon is running for the Senate? That's bullshit in my opinion, regardless of what you might think of the WWE, Vince or Linda McMahon. If Michael Jordan decided to run for a position in the Illinois House of Representatives in a few years, does that mean you can't show up to the polls wearing a shirt with Jordan's Chicago Bulls number on it?
I've seen people wear shirts endorsing their candidate of choice to the polls, bumper stickers, those little buttons that some candidates make up to pin on your shirt and it's all acceptable, but people are being asked not to wear WWE merchendise on Election Day in CT? That's a crock of shit in my opinion.
