But a federal court won't allow South Carolina to have a pro life license plate. We indeed live in sick times.

There's two types of cops in the world --Those who've been caught in their lies and those who have yet to be caught.

This gal was interviewed on the radio here. Now, whether the officer was in the right, I don't know. The defense the gal made was that the bumper sticker wasn't political and she didn't think people would take it that way.

Turns out she has another bumper sticker reading "I might be dating your daughter".

Interesting to say the least.

I'd be curious to know if there is indeed a law preventing profanity in the public arena or not. I truly hope there is and that the police officer is exonerated.

Unless my eyes mislead me Shasta Bates is a lesbian.

I bet the whole thing is made up BS.

She should get counseling for her mental illness.

Perfectly legal for cops to do this in Denver. They are a "home rule" city so whatever the cops and the City Council dream up is pretty much Law inviolate.

At least, that is the BS I've been told right here on FR...

I saw a lot of those around here(Northern CO) during the campaign and just before the election. I hope I don't get in trouble for this, the stickers say
BUCK FUSH. Totally childish and not even funny in my opinion.

[ DENVER - A Denver police sergeant is under investigation for reportedly telling a young woman he'd arrest her if she didn't remove a bumper sticker that had a profanity directed at President Bush. ]

What a novel way of makeing a political statement by the reporter..

"He said my First Amendment (right) wasn't covered under profanity displayed on my truck," said Bates.

The police officer was wrong and the woman has a right to express her obscenity on her bumper. There have been numerous court cases about this type of thing and the constitution does protect offensive speech.

The same bumper sticker that the paper could not show because it was obscene.

The cop probably made a joke and the lesbo went ballistic.
