I just saw a " HILLARY for PRISON 2016" bumper sticker on a truck

[vkkv]

pulling into the post office parking lot in front of me.. middle age guy.. early 60's..

God knows why - Lot's of idiots out there.

Funny that there was no mention of "BERNIE FOR PRISON 2016"

[Ed Suspicious]

1. I see those all over in WI, always on pickup trucks.

[Bjornsdotter]

2. Why bring this here?

Republicans have lots of crappy bumper stickers....so why promote them here?

[jeff47]

5. Because in a general election, not all voters are Democrats.

What the Republicans are thinking and doing is quite relevant as to whether or not we win in November.

[Bjornsdotter]

12. It's divisive

....and serves no good purpose when DU is so split. It was not posted to 'inform', it was posted to stir discord.

[vkkv]

23. So, you're going to let some wingnut that you and I do not even know bother you? It was

just an observation of what is out there in the 'big scary world' Bjornsdottir ... geeeeezuzzzz.

[Bjornsdotter]

25. The wingnut doesn't bother me at all

...what bothers me is that we have so many people here at each others throats over who is the better democratic candidate. I see no reason to add fuel to that fire.

Nothing more...nothing less.

[BlueState]

26. Each and everyone of the idiots that have this bumper sticker...

...had a "Where's the birth certificate?" bumper sticker (or some such nonsense) in 2012. We know how that ended.

If Bernie is nominated they'll have some ridiculous ficticious meme to spread around.

Who cares.

[vkkv]

17. Does it REALLY seem like I'm promoting ReThug bumper stickers?

Really ????

And "them" as in plural? Meaning "many"? More than one ?!

Me thinks you are a bit afraid of Hillary's elect-ability and negativity in the view of voters, right or left... am I correct?

[Bjornsdotter]

20. My Opinion

Do I fear Hillary no. If she wins the nomination I will vote for her. Supported her in 2008 and Bernie now. I stand by my original post...why bring this here?

Is it funny...no
Is it educational....no
Is it a not so subtle slam against a candidate...yes.

Raise the discourse and rise above the cheap shots.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

21. "Does it REALLY seem like I'm promoting ReThug bumper stickers?"

In my humble opinion, yes.

[bvf]

30. Only an idiot would think that, vkkv.

[Scootaloo]

54. It's a shit attempt to link it to Sanders supporters

Evidenced here:

Funny that there was no mention of "BERNIE FOR PRISON 2016"

This is going to be de rigeur for "Clinton supporters" on DU for the next few months.

[libdem4life]

3. That's just stupid. However, if had said Hillary for the Prison Guard Union

it would have been factually correct.

[Motown_Johnny]

4. I have seen a few also. Nut jobs.

There are still people driving around with W '04 stickers on their vehicles.

Some people need to be written off as lost causes, although you can bet they will turn out to vote against Hillary if given the chance.

[BooScout]

7. Just stop...

Seriously just stop. Enough is enough.

[emulatorloo]

8. Teabags just love to show off their ignorance. They'll get to Bernie soon enough.

[Skwmom]

9. Not sure what to think of the latest talk.

But I've always wondered about Biden's speech when he said he wasn't running and his recent comment that he regrets every day not running. Makes me wonder if he knows something we don't. Oh well, we will find out.

[NCTraveler]

10. Possible that he has no idea who Sanders is.

I mean there isn't much depth here.

[RobertEarl]

11. Problem is

H is too well known. Lots of depth there and it's not good.

Bernie is the most electable!

[NCTraveler]

14. Happy Tuesday.

[RobertEarl]

19. Eh?

Why would you be happy? Clinton is losing, Not only here, but there, too.

You should join our winning team. But change your mo if you do, K?

[NCTraveler]

24. Not here, not there, but everywhere!!!!

Love it.

Interesting thoughts on my happiness. It helped me understand some of your posts a little better.

[RobertEarl]

37. You understand?

H is losing on DU, losing in Iowa and is lost to the independents. Just the way it is. I feel the pain of the H backers.

[NCTraveler]

56. I appreciate the manner in which you feel my pain.

[gordyfl]

13. No Email Problem for Bernie

Ya' know, I think that's what Bernie meant when he said, "Enough with the damn emails." In other words, vote for Hillary, she'll be focusing on defending her email problems. It was a subtle way of saying vote for Bernie. He doesn't come with email baggage. He can focus on the economy without those distractions. We'll never know for sure, but that was my take. I believe later, Team
Hillary realized he wasn't defending her, entirely.

He reminded everyone of Hillary's problem, and at the same time received a standing ovation, and a handshake from Hillary. Politically, it was a smart move on his part.

[Bernin4U]

29. Nothing that complex. He simply has no tolerance for it.

Does it all the time in interviews. When the press want to talk smack that's not worthy of the kindergarten playground, he calls them on it. Shuts them down pronto.

Just his style. No gamesmanship or triangulation involved, he simply doesn't have time for cheap gossip. Think anti-Trump.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

15. WoW

In 1980 there were bumper stickers that said "A Blonde In Every Pond" and "Nobody Died At Three Mile Island". I wonder if there was a DU back then would it find its way here.

[Hoyt]

16. You've done exactly what the right winger hoped. If Sanders gets nomination, wait and see

what right wingers put on their bumpers.

[vkkv]

18. Yeah i don't think it's that complicated Hoyt

It is what it is, one guy out of an entire cesspool of wingnuts who love to hate but might not even make it to the polls.

and this you wrote ::"" If Sanders gets nomination, wait and see what right wingers put on their bumpers.""

What will we see??

[okasha]

27. JANE SANDERS FOR PRISON 2016

The rightwing press is already dubbing her Burlington College boondoggle "securities fraud" and speculating whether she's headed for jail.

And that's just the appetizer.

[vkkv]

32. Am I offended? No. Would I SEND AN ALERT about a post if such a BUMPER sticker actually

existed?? NO.


There are idiots in EVERY cross-section of society, even at D.U..

[okasha]

42. You asked what you would see if Sanders were nominated,

and I offered a small sample.

Why you seem to feel the need for primate chest-thumping in response, I have no idea.

Is your OP flamebait? Obviously it is.

Did I alert on it? No, nor do I know who did.

[gordyfl]

57. I Agree.

Notice - no "Alert" for Jane Sanders Prison comment.

[zazen]

22. ooh--could I get a BUSH/CHENEY for PRISON 2016-2046 bumper sticker?

Idiots is right.

Meanwhile SCOTUS further enabled Don Siegelman to rot in prison when the assholes who put him there are the real criminals.

[MeNMyVolt]

28. 2-5 Leave. Why am I not surprised.

DU is off the rails.

[vkkv]

31. Someone ALERTED this post ?? What kind of dirt-bag censor-loving sh*theads

are so paranoid that they can't face the opposition?

I'd sure like to see the comments place with the Jury results!

Can you share them please?

[B Calm]

33. My thoughts too!

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Hillary for Prison???? On DU? In what way does this further any discussion at all? It is simply meant to be disruptive. Hide this asinine post.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue Jan 12, 2016, 05:41 PM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: This is a rightwing meme there's no condemning it in the OP. It's obvious it was brought here purely for flamebait and to stir up a hornets nest. Go to a mixed board for this. Even people that don't like Hillary should not be ok with this. Unless of course you're planning on voting for trump. hide this. it has no place on DU.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I don't vote to hide a post b/c an alerter "knows" what the poster "meant."
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It's GD-P where Democrats go to insult other Democrats.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given

[DemocratSinceBirth]

34. WoW

Someone ALERTED this post ?? What kind of dirt-bag censor-loving sh*theads

-vkkv

I love the scent of macho posturing on a beautiful Los Angeles afternoon.



Respectfully,
DemocratSinceBirth

[vkkv]

36. YOu didn't quote me entirely... that is NOT being honest now is it?

Select editing, taking words out of context is very right-wing.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

44. I am a fair man so I will quote you verbatim.

Someone ALERTED this post ?? What kind of dirt-bag censor-loving sh*theads

are so paranoid that they can't face the opposition?

I'd sure like to see the comments place with the Jury results!

Can you share them please?

Your original post was ill thought out. The alert was ill thought out. Your response was ill thought out.

We have all been around the block here...You wanted to take a shot at Hillary. That's certainly your right... We are all big boys and girls here... Why hide behind the "others say" subterfuge?


-

[vkkv]

46. I wasn't "taking a shot" at Hillary!

Geeeezzzuzzzz.

My post about an idiot with a right-wing bumper sticker and the reponses received proves that there are idiots in every cross-section of society.

[LiberalArkie]

38. Results

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

So now DUer's are dirt-bag shit heads. Please help bring this place to some state of decorum.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue Jan 12, 2016, 06:27 PM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Try and be civil people. It's really not that hard.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: OK everyone...inhale!! Let it out slowly.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If they were able to call out the alerter by name then perhaps the alerter would have a case. Sounds like sour grapes for the OP not being hidden.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

[MeNMyVolt]

47. So. voted to Leave hey LA?

Not surprised.

[MeNMyVolt]

48. Yes, and the SBS supporters voted to Leave, again.

I wouldn't share squat with you.

[bvf]

52. The swarm is apparently growing lax

in its procedures. Probably time for a refresher.

[one_voice]

50. The rules are simple here..

if someone thinks something is against community standards they alert. You knew that when you signed up? And yet you called fellow posters dirt bag censor loving shitheads--no I won't star out the letter, for doing what the site allows them to do?

What if someone called Bernie a commie loving asshole--and someone alerted on that and it was hidden. Community standards would have spoken. That's how this site works. When you sign up here that's what you sign up for.

By the way, my example should I have been serious should be hidden. But I don't believe that about Bernie, I think he's a very decent guy and we're lucky to have him as a candidate.

Just pointing out this is yahoo.com and it's not a free for all.

Have a nice day.

[vkkv]

53. So,,, you were the Alerter? n/t

[MeNMyVolt]

55. Not the initial alerter.

Bernie-Bros had you covered.

[rurallib]

40. Here in Iowa I saw one of those and one for a Republican

Think - pretty sure - it was Trump. (Trump for prison) - Hillary's on a pickup, Trump's on a Prius.

I did had a conversation with a Republican who told me that Hillary should be in prison. I asked her why and she looked at me like the proverbial deer in the headlights. She said "her emails" in a condescending tone. So I asked her "what specifically?" She looked stunned and said "I don't have time for this nonsense." I told her I did and no one can ever tell me what she did.

Conversation over.

I get in these impromptu debates from time to time and they usually go just like that. Short with no answers.

[LiberalArkie]

49. I love it also. I give the attitude that I have not heard anything about it and like you ask

"What emails" oh? "What was on them?". "Is that important" and the eyes do glass over. They are not used to having to logically defend their position.

I am not against Hillary, I am just for Bernie. I would like to do something to drag this nation back to the hard left.

[The Wielding Truth]

58. An thoughtful and honest response. Thanks, LiberalArkie.

[JoePhilly]

43. Bernie isn't a real threat to the GOP.

See, it's hilarious!!!

[TheCowsCameHome]

45. I got a kick out of the Trump "Make America Hate Again" sticker

[vkkv]

51. My initial guess was that this thread was SO TRITE that it wouldn't get

any traction at all..

Wonders never cease.

[Dawson Leery]

59. Some Democratic site this is.

A long time Democrat is allowed to be smeared in the name of an outside agitator, a professional whiner.

[vkkv]

60. My quick guess is that MORE D.U. members have been kicked out of the Hillary Group

than have members been kicked out of the Bernie Group.
I wish I had the data to find out for sure. Groups hosts PLEASE chime in.

Hillary supporters here seem far, far, more intolerant than Bernie fans as witnessed by the many ALERTS anytime someone types a negative opinion of her. Your post is evidence of that as well.

Bernie, a professional whiner? That is more a reflection on you, but okay, whatever.

Many Americans DO NOT WANT an insider for POTUS anyway, hence the very strong, but weird support of Trump.

[Dem2]

61. They may be a redditor or DUer

there's a lot of anger out there on the Republican side, but it's not exclusive to that side, as can be witnessed while reading one's favorite political sites...

[vkkv]

62. Funny !! ______________________________ n/t
