Racist campaign bumper stickers go viral





A photograph of a bumper sticker that features racist, anti-Obama language has gone viral on Facebook and other social networks.

The sticker reads "Don't Re-Nig In 2012," in large white type, above smaller text that reads: "Stop repeat offenders. Don't re-elect Obama!"

The offensive design appears to have originated at a site called Stumpy's Stickers, where it can be purchased. The site sells variations on the same idea, including another "Don't Re-Nig" design and a caricature of a black man's face with a missing tooth, a picture of a chimp that reads "Obama 2012," and another with a drawing of several Ku Klux Klan members that reads "The Original Boys In The Hood."

When money takes precedence over compassion, life and dignity, the soil is also rich for every other way of devaluing and degrading human beings.

Is that for real? People actually drive vehicles with a sticker like that?

I prefer this bumper sticker...

Permanent pinstriping!

That would seriously torque me up, and I would be compelled to do serious damage to that vehicle, at the very least.
I don't think it would fly very well here in the Hudson Valley of NY either.

Any info on that? If it has an ISP, the ISP might shut the site down, depending on who it is.

Republicans always say racism against blacks is pretty much dead and the only racism that exists today is perpetrated against whites. Just ask Sean Hannity.

I'll take a pic of it and their license number and it will be on the internet in a matter of minutes.

They may have the First Amendment working for them but time will tell if they have the
courage of their convictions. We'll see how long it will remain on the bumper after that.

Honestly, if I EVER see a car with a bumper sticker like that, I will cause an accident.

I will plow my car right into the bumper that has such a vile sticker on it.

I have good car insurance. But I hope to make the racist pig pay for the damage!
