a really nice man just trying to get he and his dog through a crosswalk safely. The car may have come up on him too quickly or may be blocking part of the crosswalk. I've challenged drivers who have done that to me.

We laugh at gullible right-wingers who fall for crap on social media... people falling for this look just as idiotic.

I was there last year and saw people wearing the hat. Also read that a bunch of the online trolls were Aussie boys.

There's another board I visit with a rabid Aussie Trump supporter. The guy said he didn't care when British MP Jo Cox was murdered because she was as bad as a terrorist.

...and yell at me waving his arms out the window. I had NO idea what he was saying or talking about... i had my window closed. He kept yelling and pointing to the back of my car. Was I dragging granny? Nope.. apparently he didn't like my RESISTANCE, HILLARY and PBO bumper stickers lol Guess I need MORE of them I pulled into the local pot store and he drove right on past me.......

Idiot" bumper sticker in the back window of my truck. All the while Shrub was president. It's on a piece of plastic I had mounted so it was inside, showing out the back window.

All I ever got were thumbs up's or people catching me coming and going and laughing about it. There were probably two factors keeping me from getting crap from W supporters though. One is that I am a big tough looking dude. The other I think is it went over the right-wingers heads!

Good way to ditch a Trumpster Diver btw. Make him follow you into the weed shop! They have to have camera's there too. If he were to get out and harass you, it'd all be on video.

And leave them on as long as they're even near too close, they always back off, if not get out of their way.

They are in a hurry and you are in their way, people get in a car and instant jerk.

in South Australia. You can zoom in and out here, and even look at the intersection. Put yourself on Wyatt Street, where it empties out into Finders Street.
