let's see how long THIS bumper stick lasts |
|
I just put my new stick on my car "Re-Elect Bush--You're kidding, right?" Anybody want to start a pool.. days until
a) a freepr flips me off
b) I get keyed
c) it gets ripped off.
I live in Virginia, sure it's a Democratic-majority part of Virginia, but still....

Actually, I'm betting that the "you're kidding, right?" part gets pulled off after being cut with an X-Act-O knife, so the remainder just says "Re-elect Bush."
I'm further betting that you get flipped off by a freeper or five... and you get keyed...
All within a week!
I had a "Texas Democrat" bumper sticker on my old car. Glad it was an old Shovette that I didn't care how it looked, let's just say that!
I live in Austin (a pretty liberal town) but even here, I was in mortal danger having that sticker on my car, and I knew it.
Nowadays, I just have a sticker for Lloyd Doggett. folks will figure iut that, if I am pro-Doggett, I must also be anti-Bush.

I just put mine on- "Defend America, Defeat Bush." I get a little nervous when I see the huge trucks with the flags pull up next to me, but so far, no real threats. Isn't it sad that we have to worry about something like that in America? :sigh:

5. You're absolutely right |
|
The fact that we have to worry is sad. The fact that some people are too concerned about the well-being of their cars is also sad. I have friends who would like to put a Kerry sticker on their car, but they're afraid the car will get keyed.

6. I have one on my car that just says: John Kerry 2004.... |
|
Nobody has done anything YET! I live in central Indiana, popular place for Bush lovers. I thought my town needed a little "balance" so I chose to put a sticker on, vandalism or not!
One day I was driving down our main street and I came up on a car with "Bush/Cheney 2004" and "My Man Mitch" (Mitch Daniels is running for Governer here) and "Chris Chocola for congress" stickers. Boy that ticked me off so I sped up and passed the car and then proceeded to pull in front of it and slow down JUST so they could see my Kerry sticker at the upcoming stoplight!!!! I felt so good that day!! LOL

11. I live in Bloomington and I do that all the time. |
|
On my car I have a Kerry sticker, one with an American flag that says FOR REPUBLIC, NOT EMPIRE, another that says IMPEACH BUSH & CHENEY, and one that says W: LET'S NOT ELECT HIM IN 2004, EITHER. I've gotten yelled at a couple times, but no vandalism.

12. I did the same thing last week. |
|
I made sure the SUV with the Bush/Cheney sticker saw my MoveOn bumper sticker, which reads Mission crossed out and replaced with Nothing Accomplished. Drop Bush in 2004.

3. I've been remarkably lucky... |

We have around 5 in your face Democrat stickers on ours, but no ill effects so far (unless you count the one ding in our door, which could have been intentional or completely accidental)
Knock wood.

7. I bet it won't be touched |
|
I drive all over Dallas, Texas with THREE anti-bush, pro-Democrat stickers on my van and have never had so much as a middle finger salute.
Had em on for several months too.

And good for you. I have a rental car right now and i slapped a kerry sticker on the bumper and inside the trunk lid i put a Bush "I brake for lethal injections" When i get my new car a Kerry sticker will go right on it before it leaves the dealer. I live in a republican stronghold, i dont give a shit how many people give me THE LOOK or flip me off.
