Bumper sticker found on a vehicle in Oakland on Broadway and 20th Street.

Oh joy Is this what we have to look forward to until the election? Jesus.

[scheming daemons]

1. That bumper sticker is actually pro-Obama....

That kind of thing HELPS him, because it reminds people of their own prejudices.

[Cha]

9. It helps Obama because it

reminds people of what an asshole hillary is.

[JuniperLea]

2. No matter where you draw the lines in society...

There are assholes in every group.

This is beyond tasteless.

[provis99]

3. some idiot parked in Oakland with this sticker?

Makes as much sense as driving around in a Klan hood in Harlem.

[jgraz]

5. I'd bet money it was a black person driving that car.

[JuniperLea]

8. Your comment is as tasteless as the sticker, imho... eom

[jgraz]

16. Then you understand neither my comment or the meaning of that sticker.

[JuniperLea]

19. I understand just fine...

Irony, much like sarcasm, isn't always appropriate.

This is totally inappropriate.

[jgraz]

20. How can you say you understand it when I wrote it and I'm telling you that you're misinterpreting it

That makes no sense whatsoever.

[sniffa]

25. Well, look who you're talking to

[jgraz]

26. *smacks forehead*

yep

[ampad]

14. Why do you think it was a black person?

Just wondering.

[jgraz]

15. Because the sticker is obviously meant to be ironic

And I'd hazard a guess that, even meaning it ironically, most white people would be uncomfortable driving around Oakland with that sticker.

[grantcart]

29. yup probably real popular in Harlem too

and what makes the Black dude's day is knowing that half the white folks driving around won't even get it.

[jgraz]

4. That. Is. Awesome.

:rofl:

[Cant trust em]

6. Ironic maybe?

I sure do hope so.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

7. Did she actually say that?

Yet?

[Hepburn]

10. Holy shit....

...:wow:

[11 Bravo]

23. By the way, you do know that this is crap, and she never said anything of the sort, don't you?

Ah, shit, never mind, of course you do. (By the way, your scottie called, and asked me to mount a rescue mission. Apparently your pooch has a bullshit threshold which it declines to cross.)

[jgraz]

27. You should really familiarize yourself with a concept I like to call "humor"

:eyes:

[Hepburn]

28. IGNORE POSTER is our friend....

...click. This one is for the Scottie. Dis me all you want...leave my little dog out of it. <think FDR>

[jgraz]

31. It certainly is mine

:D

[DangerousRhythm]

11. WTF.

People are ridiculous.

[Vinca]

12. It makes you ashamed to be an American. nt

[AtomicKitten]

13. That encapsulates the gist of her campaign strategy succinctly.

Ugh.

:hi:

[jgraz]

17. I'm ashamed to say I wouldn't have the guts to put that sticker on my car

Even though I think it's hilarious.

[crankychatter]

18. I LOVE OAKLAND

I wish I could afford to go home.

but it ain't home, no mo' so...

[Terran]

21. Guys, it's obviously meant to be a joke

It's a satirical comment on how-low-will-she-go, basically. Not to be taken seriously. Lighten up.

And btw, Oakland's a pretty enlightened place when it comes to racial matters..."America's Most Integrated City" and all that. I lived there for six months and worked there for many years, and it's a great city.

[MadAndy]

22. I call BS. I dont believe that was a real bumper sticker.

[Catherine Vincent]

24. That can't be real. nt

[quakerboy]

30. That is Fucked Up

with the capitols. I get it. But its still Fucked Up.
