| Teabagger pickup this morning... |
|
There was a teabagger at the orthodontist's office this morning - jacket covered in "don't tread on me", "take our country back", etc. buttons. I left right behind him and he got into a beat-up pickup with a tool box and ladder rack that was similarly covered in bumper stickers.
I pulled out behind him and right under the "Where's the birth certificate?" sticker was one that read, "What part of WHITE house don't you understand?"
The raw stupidity is bad enough, but the racism really pisses me off.

| 20. "Allowed" as in it should be against the law, or "allowed" as in it should |
|
be soically unacceptable? If the 1st, then the First Amendment protects such "speech". If the later, I think it is socially unaceptable but it is equally unaceptable to confront this type of display. A sub reason for nonconfrontation may be a fear of physical altercation.

| 25. "allowed" as in this qualifies as bullying and needs to be stopped. |

| 31. I agree so long as it is not the government doing the stopping. If |
|
the government tried to outlaw hate speech I believe that would violate the 1st amendment.

| 2. Maybe it's time for Canada to burn the white house down again. |

It would give him someone else to hate for a while.

| 3. The last sticker alone discredits his entire argument |
|
However he would be too ignorant to realize it, or to realize that his unbridled hatred gets in the way of reason.

| 6. I hope that last sticker is prominently displayed. Sure makes it hard to deny the inherent bigotry |

I remember pumping gas when back when it rocketed up to 4 bucks plus a gallon. Some local pulled in with a beat up Gremlin and broken windows. You can guess who was coming out of his speakers when he opened up the door?
Silly bastards, every last one of them

| 8. Something I've always wanted to do to shitheel vehicles like that |
|
I never have done this, but it's always been in the back of my mind. Whenever I see a shitheel-mobile like that, I want to make up a bunch of magnetic bumper stickers (magnetic so that they can't claim damages to their paint job, etc.) that have what I would like to say in response. For example, on that one I'd put "I'm a racist piece of shit" or something like that. When they are not in their car, I'd slap it on their car in a spot where it would blend in. they'd likely not see it if they weren't around, but anyone following them in traffic would.

| 19. I did that with hummers!!! |
|
I made magnetic bumper stickers to stick on humvees...they said...if i can remember correctly: "F*ck you Earth! I need my humvee to go grocery shopping." and "F*ck clean air, my humvee is cool!"
I highly recommend it as an act of therapy...it felt sooooooooooooooo good!

| 27. Anyone remember this bumper sticker? |
|
Bush/Cheney - saving your ass since 2003 ... whether you want it or not.
I used to carry around a sharpie permanent marker and I would replace the letters S with and R and the V with a P. Took about 2 seconds and looked like shoe tying or picking up keys.

The pickup was model 2001 or older, and this clown doesn't quite "get" why he couldn't afford a new vehicle for 10 years. I'll bet his boss doesn't drive a beat-up pickup.

| 21. Now you're just making me feel bad. |
|
My newest vehicle is a 2001, I also have a 1998, and a 1995.
My oldest is my Dakota pickup which I may drive once a month. Kind of rusty but runs great.
No stickers on any of them though.

| 22. Don't feel bad! I'm NEVER buying a new OR used car again....if I can help it. |
|
My Prius is 5 years old and I will drive it until the bumpers fall off! 5 years old and I have only 21,500 miles on it. The batteries are warranted 8 years or 100,000 miles...so I should be good for many years to come. I'm not ever buying another car unless I'm forced to. So, be happy about your cars! NO CAR PAYMENTS! :thumbsup:

| 23. I drive a '97 Jeep Grand Cherokee that just turned over 201000 miles.. |
|
I bought it almost 5 years ago and paid cash. Funny thing is, I had just gotten a 6 figure settlement from a workers comp case and could have bought anything I wanted. Well, I *did* buy what I wanted. Best $4,000 I ever spent. I'm sure I can get another 5 years out of it, and have no desire to buy another vehicle.
I bet the people driving around in their new $30,000 vehicles, paying 400-500/mo, plus full coverage insurance, are wondering why they don't have money to spend on frivolous stuff that they want.

now fully acceptable in our fucked up society. Sad to say. If it wasn't, that man wouldn't be driving around with that shit on his truck for the masses to see. He'd hide behind closed doors like they use to do....before the GOP/Teabaggers made all this acceptable.

... when the KKK proudly declared their members and towns had signs at the limits that said no vagrants or niggers after dark.
To them, that is the good old days.

it's like having a piece of paper taped to your back with the words "Jackass" written on it.
I see quiet a few around here. The gunshop next to my insurance agent has big HUGE Don't Tread on Me flags hung up to the window.
