You're not the only one to notice the net increase in the number of Obumper stickers. Could be, could be.

I caution everyone to take notice something Rush Limbaugh broadly hinted at during his opening monologue on Wednesday. One cannot help but conclude that the administration may, indeed, be deliberately trying to provoke premature direct action.

It is important to remember that the Regime would prefer to choose their ground, and not allow anyone else to choose the ground for them.

You battle-weary know precisely what I mean.

Do not be easily provoked.

Understand the Regime is clearly more frightened of Principled Conservatives than we should ever allow ourselves to be of them.

Anger serves their purposes, and it is imparative we not allow them to provoke "a Waco every week," or any excuse to militarize our returning veterans on the pretext of a Summer of Rage designed to silent descent.

For whatever reason, there is definitely something strange afoot, but our strongest weapon is actual, good old American self-confidence.

Confidence in our being in the right, confidence in our God, confidence in the abiding traditions of our nation and each other.

Their greatest weapon is the use of "ceaseless hustling," designed to keep anxiety at a high level. Therefore, laugh at them, and remember you are not alone.

Our God is mighty, to the bringing down of strongholds, and it may well be He has raised up this poppinjay only to destroy him forever.

Piss on these high and mighty presumptuous weaklings. It's going to take a whole lot more than this neverending aggitation to provoke me to act in any manner other than deliberately, confidently and with the greatest numbers.

God save the Republic.

This is nothing new in Louisiana.

New Llano and Leesville police departments was well known for pulling over people with Ft. Polk sticker’s on their cars especially IF said driver was a certain skin color other than white, and/or had out of state tags on their cars.

I used to have a Chevy with the whole rear of it filled with stickers Like "Fear the government that fears your guns". That was while Clinton was POTUS. Never had a hassle where I live. But the nations law enforcement as a whole has turned many more shades of liberal since then.

Pretty soon, it’s going to be a felony to hurt someone’s feelings. Look, we need to lose some liberty to make sure we’re free...isn’t that the message of il Duce Barack?

Aren’t there ANY federal prosecutors who believe in asserting criminal charges for violation of conservatives’ civil rights under color of law?! If this was a “screwing goats is good” or some other libtard bumper sticker, there would be prosecutors lined up from here to the ends of the earth trying to make a case. But they won’t stand up to such a blatant violation of someone’s First Amendment right to assert a conservative thought. Seriously, what gives?

PS I know that by asserting that conservatives have Constitutional rights, I am now a potential terrorist according to Napalitona. Actually, just posting here qualifies me for that. I no longer care.

When the next Republican takes office, any Obama, Kerry, No Blood for Oil, Bush Lies, etc. will be called Leftist extremists and their tofu and welfare checks will be taken.

Before we get too excited about this, I’d like something better than third hand information. A patrol car video would do nicely.

I have “Don’t Tread On Me” flag as my screen saver. Is there any way “the authorities” can know it?

The time is now. Everytime our rights our being violated, we must sue!!! It is not legal to be pulled over without cause. A bumper sticker is freedom of speech.

Just wait until someone has an anti-gay bumper sticker or something like that. They will be pulled over a charged with a hate crime.

We must sue each time we are violated, discriminated against, etc.

Where are all the so called conservative groups challenging some of the new dumb laws in the supreme court?

I'm with you. We are just jumping to the conclusion the story is accurate. How many “background” checks would show what groups you belong to unless it really is an extremist group. Being a patriot wouldn't be on a rap sheet just yet. Being a skin head might be.

I have to admit though, I was pulled over and a check made back in my 20's just because I was driving a Lincoln Mark IV. The cop admitted that I had done nothing wrong but didn't believe I could have owned the car. He even peeled the safety sticker off the windshield to see if I had moved it from another windshield.

I guess the small town Louisiana police do not know that our US Naval ships are now flying the Don't Tread on Me flag. But then again, the obamarama administration considers our military terrorist anyway.

Yep one sided stories usually aren’t the total composite of what makes up the entire espisode. Like you I’d like to hear both sides the stop, etc.

Spot on. Laughter is the best medicine and they CANNOT TOLERATE ridicule. Laugh in their faces. The angrier they get, the more we laugh. We are going to ultimately win this one.
