What's your take on this? A lawn care company inserted a flyer in their invoice to solicit donations to an anti-abortion "charity?"
Have you ever heard of this before?
What's your take on mixing politics and business?
Hey, You Got Your Abortion In My Lawn Care! (http://dubiousquality.blogspot.com/2005/11/hey-you-got-your-abortion-in-my-lawn.html) - There are a staggering number of lawn-mowing services in this city, and we've used the same one for almost seven years.
When I opened their latest bill last week, a flyer popped out, soliciting donations for an anti-abortion "charity."
Wow. Didn't see that coming.
My first thought was A lot of people mow lawns in this city. Within half an hour, my lawn mowning service was my ex-lawn mowing service, and I look happily forward to bills free of abortion politicking in the future.
I would have had the same reaction if it had been a flyer soliciting donations for the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL). It wasn't the position, it was the insertion of politics. Even a solicitation for a true, non-political charity would have have been fine. I just don't want politics mixed in with my grass clippings.
