Does to me - it looks to me like people who don't know what to do, so
they made a sign. I expect to see that at sporting events, not when it's
something serious.

I've thought, and thought again, and nope, it still looks like people who
don't know what to do so they made a sign.
I have seen enough of this sort of thing in real life - when the city of
Salt Lake sold a block of Main Street to the LDS Church, we got all sorts
of nutters in from all over the country with signs. They disrupted
weddings and all sorts of things to "try to get their point across".
They also came into public meetings and disrupted them.
Disruption of public meetings and of people's wedding day is NOT the way
to get your point across. It is the way to get identified as part of the
lunatic fringe, and those who came here and did that got labeled exactly
that.
