Anti-Trump sign irks Jamaica Plain womans liberal neighbors


Credit: Matt Stone

A Jamaica Plain woman’s decision to label her house a “Trump-Free Zone” — calling President-elect Donald Trump a “criminal” and “greedy pig” — is even offending some of her own anti-Trump neighbors in the leafy, left-leaning neighborhood.

“He wasn’t my candidate but I don’t agree with that type of voicing, saying those things about him,” said Bill Nelson, who lives several houses down from the home sporting the hand-scrawled invective.

“He’s now the president, I think we have to stand behind him and wait till he’s in office to judge him,” Nelson said.

Sharon Kurinsky proudly told the Herald she hung the sign — “Trump-Free Zone! No ignorant, bigoted, criminal, pathological liar, misogynistic narcissistic greedy pig scumbag is allowed here! Never my president!” — on her porch several weeks ago.

My folks house and front yard are covered with pro-Liberal/Democratic anti-republican signs, many of them handmade.

I'm very proud of my parents!
