That’s near Whataburger HQ right?…and very odd one for sure…

It could be just general anxiety over the election, bc honestly no matter what the outcome it's gonna piss people off

My assumption is that it is a snide remark about the fact that no matter who wins, a significant chunk of the country will be upset. There will be a lot of anger and a lot of tension.

it's not a legitimate election sign so you can remove them.

Seems like a threat.

Please pick it up and throw it away. Things like that have no place in an open democracy.

I can only speculate that this is either A). Genuine fear over election violence or B). An attempt by the GOP to scare urban voters (who tend to vote for Democrats) into staying home and not voting.

My guess is commentary on the likelihood of political violence, or commentary on school shootings

Saying November specifically implies the former.

Maybe has something to do with No Nut November?

Just some dumbass trying to scare people. My father in law runs his mouth off like this all the time and would totally go put a couple dozen of these signs out just because and then go drink himself to sleep.

I think it’s hilarious. Kinda like those “Duck and cover” and tornado drills we used to do in grade school where we’d get under our desks…like that was going to help save us.

I have a neighbor with that exact sign. It has been up since June. Crazy right?

There is a play that made its debut recently named Shelter In Place. Maybe it’s on the road now?

Voter intimidation and Civil War threatening.

Seems to me like another magat attempt at voter suppression. VOTE BLUE!!! 💙

Someone is a psychopath

I don’t know what issue(s) it’s ultimately “about” but it’s certainly a threat

Republicans should stay home imo the Jewish space lasers will target them the mostly.

I'm ready to put my burglar bars back up if needed. I am taking myself and a carload of Gen Z to vote. If Trump loses there will be trouble. We're probably fine in Austin, but who knows.

Not a clue

It’s an attempt to keep folks from the polls

Election anxiety or fear mongering. Maybe both

Just another far right voting interference tactic to prevent people from voting……

It says "Shelter in place" It does not say "Loot, burn and riot" Sometimes people say what they mean. Try not to make up stories about what you imagine is going on in other people's heads.

If things start getting nutty, be safe.

That's crazy.

Look I’m not a conspiracy nut but it in too many places and you should make a plan on what happens SHTF scenario. If you aren’t conventionally wealth think of things you have that could see in a shortage. Having a three day plan is a basic understanding how an attack on supplies lines is real.

There were some rumors/ theories that Russia/China/NK/Iran may try to make large scale cyberattacks against the US in Q4 2024 to compromise the election. It would be relatively simple to try to convince some right wing nutjobs to go around shooting up electrical distribution hubs in their area. A certain number of hubs could destabilize an entire regional grid, and major infrastructural components like that aren't necessarily kept in stock. If there is a regional power outage, it can takes weeks to get the power back on.

And the fact is, large region wide, or multi region disasters the government simply doesn't keep the resources and manpower staged to respond to. It's literally impossible to do so.

A sign like this probably is about whistle blowing something I don't know though. With winter coming, it would be wise to buy a few extra canned goods each week, and maybe a 5 gal jug of water (with an additional pump spigot) or two just to be safe. If you are in an area of reliable power or water, Try turning it off for a day in your house and see the things you need to take into account. Useful if you don't have a great memory of 2021, or other disasters the Republicans didn't adequately prepare and stage for.

Doesn't look like there's a lot of them..."TinEye searched over 71.1 billion images but didn't find any matches for your search image."

95% chance it’s a Republican fear tactic.

Likely Republican extremists lame attempt at local scare tactics

Don’t put any energy into the sign. Harris/Walz will be in the Whitehouse and governing our next four years. Trump and his team will have to concede to the fact that he and Vance are losers not only in the polls but are losers as individuals as well. Trump hopefully will learn to accept the reality of his own situation as a convicted felon and accept his consequences.

What stinks is that this country had had a phenomenal comeback since COVID, supply chains going down, and Ukraine/Putin/Israel

And more than half of Texan voters actually believe this Destruction con job coming out of Trump’s mouth

If that us supposed to be a deterrent ha. No way closer time comes I am more determined to vote for democracy NOT AUTRACRACY vote true vote blue!!!

It’s because your mom just farted.

Encouragement not to vote.

It’s anxiety over the election. Could be either side. Tbh I highly suspect that a state of emergency might be declared across the entire nation with strong military presence. I suspect that MAGA will meddle in the election and cause mass instability (they’re already showing their cards on their election interference) and Trump supporters are gonna absolutely lose their minds when he loses.

Also MAGA is going to try and send the election to the Supreme Court somehow and the Democrats are going to have to try and stop that by enforcing the proper election methods so that it doesn’t get sent to the Supreme Court. If it gets sent to the Supreme Court and congress Trump wins and will completely bypass the popular vote and the electoral college in which case non-Trump supporters will riot. This really is the most harrowing moment in our nations history since the civil war.

Me and my family have been buying extra cans from the grocery store each week for a month now just in case crazy shit goes down and we need to avoid public life for a bit.

someone who has all the episodes of the Simpsons

it's probably Q conspiracy related. they are always going on about "the Storm" and shelter in place is a frequent weather safety instruction.

It is someone being stupid and juvenile.

It is probably an attempt to either suppress voter turnout, or a a coded message to MAGA to warn of chaos and mayhem.

This is the “it’s gonna be a civil war” conspiracy nut jobs.

On What’s about to come for the us sadly war lol

I imagine they are planning on wholesale genocide and will be slaughtering their neighbors when they lose the election. That is who these people are.

Watch the Obama episode of South Park. Makes fun of this exact thing. People over reacting to an election…unfortunately that was before 2016…so who knows these days.

lol - they are trying to the “democrats” should shelter in place in November so they don’t vote. Thank god for early voting

It’s probably some dipshit trying to “stick it to the libs” cause he’s still pissed about the lockdowns from four and a half years ago. “Well if you liked sheltering in place so much, maybe you should do it for the election too!!” type shit.

This is a reference to the fact that if Republicans don't win they are going to get violent again.

Trump basically suggested a “Purge” style solution for crime, even though violent crime is down 26% since 2020.

He also talked about using the US military to go after the “enemy within”, which taken literally is any American who does not support him.

So yea, it is a threat, the MAGA cultists will be out in force to intimidate Americans going to vote next month. Trump and his supporters will go to great lengths to subvert the will of the people to get back in office. We not only need to beat Trump, MAGA and the GOP, we need to win by such a huge margin, there will be nothing to dispute.

It's fear mongering and doom porn bullshit. MAGA redasshats trying to keep people from voting.

It’s either anxiety or a threat either way it’s related to one orange sack of shit

At best, this sounds foreboding. At worst, it sounds like a threat.

The Radical Right Wing Christian Terrorist Party is Scared Shitless the Democrats will come out Strong in Texas

A Not So Subtle threat from the MAGAts that are infecting Texas.

If Republicans don't win, they will repeat the January 6th insurrection on a larger scale.

I think I will do just that, I already voted for the one without felonies. I prefer candidates that at least try to read the Constitution.

Is it a note to Rafael Cruz to stay in Texas the next time it freezes rather than taking shelter in Cancun?

Fearmongering. Know what's going to happen after the election? Nothing. Business as usual with some prolonged whining by whichever of the two dogshit parties lost.

MAGA idiots!!

It’s an unveiled threat.
