A few days ago, I called attention to the fact that our opponents chose to deliberately include messages of hate and intolerance on their website.
I stress "deliberately" because it's important to note that unlike open comments/forums/message boards, where the website creators are not always responsible for every point of view, in this case, these messages were specifically and manually added to the website by whoever is responsible for their website. In other words, by adding these messages, the "Yes" organization is specifically endorsing and encouraging some pretty unpleasant points of view.
Just to refresh your memory, two items in particular stood out (emphasis added):
"Thank you for defending the Christian faith and standing up to the atheist ACLU. I live next to Sodom & Gomorrah (San Francisco, California)."
"The ACLU (American Communist Lawyer Underwriters) must NOT be allowed to intimidate our communities into becoming a Godless, valueless wasteland."
Here's a direct link to a screenshot of what their page looked like from the 13th through last night:

I've shaded most of the less offensive, more innocuous messages, but if you scroll down near the bottom you'll see the two worst ones.
A quick check of Google's cache feature will confirm this, if there's any doubt about the issue.
Here's what that same page looks like today, now that they've been busted:

Note that they've removed those two messages in particular--but only because they were called on it. I don't speak for everyone on our side, but I'd say that their true colors are showing.
For other developments, see the update from yesterday.

Final note: There seems to be one point that a LOT of people keep getting confused about: The mayor and city council (with one exception) are on our side and are AGAINST having the nativity display on city hall property. I cannot stress this point enough.
