Where have all the rainbow flag bumper stickers gone?
Five years ago it was all the rage to have a rainbow flag bumper sticker, yet now I rarely see them. Has it fallen out of fashion?

2. gone to flowers every one? ... or maybe
they used to be a secret code for the insiders. then they became common knowledge and possibly no longer safe in many areas.

4. I've always preferred the HRC equal symbol over the rainbow flag...
The rainbow flag has always reminded me of a saddle blanket for My Little Pony.

5. I agree. The HRC sticker, and Equality Florida sticker
are the statements I want to make.

8. Still see them here in the SF Bay Area...
...although the super-long, super-skinny rainbow sticker (fits pretty perfectly across the back of a Volvo wagon!) seems to have replaced the rectangular sticker in popularity.

I still have mine (rectangular) on the back of my car -- or most of it anyway. Some knucklehead tried to peel it off in Kentucky. (I kid you not -- and how do you like my brass pair for driving through the deep south with a rainbow decal AND California plates? LOL)

I have dozens of "=" stickers the HRC keeps sending me, but I won't use them, as it would suggest an endorsement of the HRC.

9. I used to just have a rainbow splat
and then someone went and ripped it off. The only way I could think to respond to that was to coat my car. I now have a rainbow flag sticker, a rainbow US flag sticker, HRC sticker, sticker that says "Sorry I missed Church, I was busy practicing witch craft and becoming a lesbian" and one that says "I don't mind if you're straight as long as you act gay in public."

10. gone along with the 90's and Clinton
Methinks.

I still have a rainbow frame around my liscense plate but it's so old it's in pastels now, looks more like an Easter flag than a rainbow flag.
