It wouldn’t bother me at all if idiots who put that sort of thing on their bumpers lost their driver’s licenses or some other suitable punishment.

Are there any other expressions of our 1st Amendment rights that you would like to see criminalized?

Try ordering a personalized plate from the DMV that reads “F-— YOU.” They won’t give it to you. Why not? Would you guys allow it on 1st amendment grounds? If not, why not?

For me, the same reasons for disallowing a F-— YOU license plate also apply to a F-— YOU bumper sticker. The public has a right to drive on public streets without being forced to read your profanity. I’m wouldn’t jail someone for a F-— YOU bumper sticker but I would restrict their driver’s license and/or vehicle registration. Operating a motor vehicle on public streets isn’t a right. It’s a privilege. There is no constitutional right to driver’s license or vehicle registration. Your right to be obscene doesn’t extend to the motor vehicle that you use on public streets.
