The author considered the welcome sign ironic given that the sign bore the words “HELLO DEMOCRATS” yet the hall was surrounded by a steel fence capped with barbed wire, which was not congruent with the ideals of democrats and did not serve to ease the tensions surrounding the convention. Inside the fence were numerous security personnel that had been ordered to shoot to kill if need arose.

The welcome sign during the 1968 democratic national convention held in Chicago was considered as ironic or sarcastic because it boosts uneasiness to the member of Democrats. Drivers were called a strike, phones and elevators are functioning erratically. The whole area that surrounds the delegates can cause apprehension.
