My friend Ken Marrero, aka the Blue Collar Muse, reports on conservative/libertarian profiling. Have an inappropriate bumper sticker on your car and the cops are warned that you might be a threat.
Writes Ken:
Missouri State Police have been alerted to be on the lookout for subversive drivers who may be domestic terrorists or members of militia groups. How can Missouri Law Enforcement know the car in front of them might be carrying dangerous people? Why from their bumper stickers of course!
Among the bumper stickers listed as indicative of dangerous, anti-Americans behind the wheel are those supporting Ron Paul or other 3rd party candidates, the Gadsden flag, opposition to the North American Union, opposition to the President's Mandatory Service agenda, the right to Keep and Bear arms and belief that the States are sovereign. All these and more are "identifiers" common to militia movements across the nation and should alert law enforcement to be cautious when dealing with occupants in cars displaying them.
In fact, they are told such people often consider police the enemy. To be fair, the report doesn't claim that all people who hold such views are automatically terrorists bent on shooting cops at traffic stops. However, if you have such stickers on your vehicle in Missouri, tensions just went WAY up.
Sounds like a great case for the ACLU to take on. You know, individual freedom, civil liberties, and all that stuff.

It’s always been hazardous to your car’s finish to display a conservative bumper sticker.
Now it’s a threat to your civil liberties? What a country!
BTW, bumper stickers (or many of them plstered on one car)have been a mostly liberal phenomenon for decades now.
Yesterday I saw some old clunker with the usual mix of leftie stickers, except one huge handmade one that said, LESBIAN DRIVER and HONK IF UR GAY and “I don’t mind straight people as long as they act gay in public”. Couldn’t see the driver (which was a blessing), just a shock mop; s(he) was one of those who peers through the steering wheel to drive.
Anyway, it’s becoming a thoughtcrime to manifest criticism of the TOTUS, that’s for sure.
Wow, I admire you. What a great bumper sticker. I hope your truck is kind of beat-up so it looks like you wouldn’t mind smashing into some liberal’s Bimmer.
You haven't heard about Ruby Ridge then...
I’m running in a marathon in a couple weeks and will gladly be displaying a “Don’t tax me Bro” shirt.
I just put my “OOPS” bumper sticker on. (With the Obama “O” Logo as the O)
Different situation entirely.
That filthy animal horiuchi was fbi, your normal badge bunny isn’t excessively intimidated when he has 150 pounds and a pistol on a teenage girl, mother to be or handicapped individual.
“I hope you truck is kind of beat-up”...
It is now. But it’s not all fun... extricating those Hybrid car parts from my chassis can be a drag.
In a socialist America, even the police and the armed forces will be used against patriots. If you doubt it, watch the miniseries “Amerika”.
Have hope, there are still conservative LE and military people out there!
How about mine:
Driver only carries $20 in
AMMUNITION
Their terrorists, our freedom fighters.
Wow!, what am I gonna do since I have this one all over the rear of my vehicle?
Just another justification for mounting MRLs to the ole F-150.
still have my go sarah go sticker on my back window and it will stay....
“In a socialist America, even the police and the armed forces will be used against patriots.”
And when Army private Brown kills the wife and children of Marine sergeant Smith, it will do wonders for inter-service harmony and cooperation.
He sez they is a danjer to sosiety."
Buy more and stick them over pro-Obama stickers on other vehicles. :-)
Other recommended bumper stickers are:
“KEEP HONKING, I’M RELOADING”
and
“DRIVER CARRIES ONLY $25 IN AMMUNITION”
