Today was the first time I've actually felt concerned . . .

...about having pro-Kerry/anti-Bush bumper stickers on my auto.

I've seen various reactions since posting them on the back window of my little pickup truck. Amazingly, there have been more positive than negative responses -- honking horns, thumbs up, that type of thing. One individual flipped me off as he passed by, but no big deal. At the gas station, I even had a pro-Bushite ask me where he could get some pro-Bush stickers. I asked him why he thought I would know that. (Get a clue Mister - I have *anti-Bush* stickers, not pro-Chimp stickers!)

But today, a man pulled up behind me & I could see in my mirror, he was livid! First, I couldn't believe it had anything to do with my pro-Kerry/anti-Bush stickers, but he was shaking his fists at me, mouthing words & obviously directing his anger my way. Since I've decided to display my anti-Bush sentiment this way, I have made sure my doors are locked, (ok, my car doors are ALWAYS locked, no matter what! And yours should be too!) I never travel without my cell phone at my side, but WHAT THE FUCKIN' HELL??!!!

When did this free republic become a country where you had to be concerned for your SAFETY simply because you expressed a contrary view with a FRICKIN' BUMPER STICKER?!!

I'm so pissed I can't even see straight!

Your thoughts?
