I don't. I never wrote that I did.

> As far as lack of backbone goes, be offended or not

Didn't say I was offended, simply that you have no basis. And you don't. Fare thee well.

You took umbrage to my comments on being paranoid did you not? I posted that fearing an IRS audit because of your bumper sticker, which is what kevinm1 said was his fear, was paranoid.

If you did not feel the same way then you did not need to respond as the comment was intended for kevin1 who made the IRS comment. Fear over the IRS because of a bumper sticker is being paranoid. As for your opinion on my opinion - you have no basis to refute my conclusions. None. I have evidence presented to me by you and others on this issue (here and in numerous related discussions over the years)and I conclude that a lack of intestinal fortitude is an ingredient in this cake.

You can call it prudence. I call it fear or lack of courage. We can agree to disagree. The fact remains that the main motivation for refusing to put a bumper stick on ones car, in this case, is trepidation over the consequences - those consequences being cosmetic damage to a thing of depreciating value even in pristine condition. That consequence being, in my experience, an extremely rare possibility.
