An ex-Navy SEAL who is running for governor in Missouri came up with a novel idea to get the word out about his campaign.
Eric Greitens is selling "ISIS hunting permits" in an effort to raise money. The bumper sticker says that the permit expires "when we defeat this evil."
Those who fork over $100 will get a sticker signed by Rob O'Neill, the former SEAL who fired the shots that killed Usama bin Laden.
The combat veteran served four tours of duty, including in Iraq and Afghanistan. He received the Combat Action Ribbon, the Purple Heart, and the Bronze Star for his service in Fallujah, Iraq.

Liberals:"OH NO, this will make ISIS hate us and make them feel bad."
Will most likely vote for him. Don’t care for any of the others.
Let’s just play Cowboys and Muslims.
frankly, it’s not a new idea- just a old idea upgraded thru fonts & a bit plastic.
BUT there’s one thing no one has is a cartoon that explain how these Donkeycrats, Demonrats, libtards, rumpswabbers,axe-grinders and Moonbats have not been able to comprehend- their own party has abandoned them-
I guess it’ll take another 20 yrs to help them figure out what side of their brain is on because when God said “I want to give your brains”-
they dissented and stated “We want trains”.
I’ll leave the trains to your interpretation...
ok, that’s my piece for 4th of july.!
Have a Happy 4th of July 2016`
You’re right this is marketing and campaign brilliance. And by the very Seal who punched Bin Laden’s ticket!
In the days of fighting sail, a letter of marque and reprisal was a government license authorizing a person (known as a privateer) to attack and capture enemy vessels and bring them before admiralty courts for condemnation and sale.
I understand why he’s doing this, for money and name recognition. I still think it’s a very bad idea, one he needs to stop asap. You would think that a Seal would know not to paint a big, bright target around himself, his family if he has one, his job site and his neighborhood. Now any Somalian nutjob who wants to ‘identify as’ part of ISIS can easily find out wear to find this candidate.
If I lived in Missouri, I would vote for him for this alone - nothing else matters; not even his policy positions.
Make America great again!
Don’t you like John Brunner? Why please elaborate?
But I would donate and plant this sticker on my car for sure.
Perhaps he wants to send the message of:
"FU ISIS, I'm an American and you are murderous scum, bring it on if you have a pair."
It is absolutely a bad idea! Seals are supposed to stay unknown however this guy opted for fortune and fame vs. remaining anonymous with quiet silent pride.
A true Seal does his job seeking no recognition for their acts. This one has brought a level of visibility to a secret division to become a status wh0re.
While I applaud what he did he is not noble and if bet the majority of former and present seals would agree
We’re supposed to hide?
Do it then! Hey, I did! Love to see what the cameras on my car will catch. Admittedly it's a little unethical to hunt in a baited field...
No that isn’t the point. It’s dumb because instead of being the quiet pride Seal he’s supposed to be (the unwritten rule) he opted for money and fame.
Truly not noble and more like self righteousness to prop himself up.
The war has to start somewhere. We can never win until we have the moral authority to shoot back and shoot first.

Understood. However, for someone to raise his profile in this manner and on this topic, I would expect them to be a single man who has no close relatives in the area, and he works mostly at home. Meaning, the only life he would directly endanger would be his own, not the collaterally damaged lives of family members or co-workers. That is his choice.
ROFL!!! I am lovin this idea!!! If I lived there, I would be all over with them stickers...
I hope the guy wins!!!
Just like 007
