Great bumper sticker. Especially in the People’s Republic of New Jersey. It is unfortunate that there are too many morons like the dopehead you encountered. I would be careful where you park your car as it is likely to be vandalized by the dopes who realize you are right and they have been wrong. And I would also expect to get audited by the IRS.
The paranoia and...I’ll just say lack of backbone and courage of ones convictions...around here stuns me sometimes.
I live in “the peoples republic” of NJ and have had 2000, 2004 Bush/Cheney and a 2008 McCain Palin sticker on my car and my wifes Minivan. I have also had my NRA, American flag, and my own anti-Left sticker (a slogan that I made up) on my car all within that time.
In addition, my license plate is a vanity plate with a political slogan/philosophy spelled out.
In eight years I have never had a problem of any kind from cops, other motorists, the IRS (give me a break) or vandals on ANY of my three vehicles - but I have been able to make my statements and viewpoint seen and heard to thousands or tens of thousands in that time safely.
I mean come on. Take off the tin foil hats. Vandals MAYBE but the IRS?
Its a car. Its not an investment in any case. Major damage is not only covered by insurance but is a criminal offense. We wanna throw “tea parties” but won’t make a statement? Do you think Sam Adams cared that his enemies knew where he lived? How many civil rights activists had rocks thrown through their windows in the dead of night - or worse - because of what they said?
Its just cosmetic damage to a car your risking. Take a chance. I won’t say the thought of vandalism or worse has not crossed my mind, but after almost nine years on two different cars I don’t even think about it anymore. As my experience proves, your just as likely to NOT have a problem at all.
BTW - it’s a nice car (as was my other one and my wife’s minivan) and I have had it at many rallies in NJ (especially FT Monmouth where I went often as a ProtestWarrio.
