What does anyone think of this bumper sticker idea [Mega Vanity]
N/A | 08/29/13 | fwdude

Posted on 08/29/2013 9:52:42 PM PDT by fwdude

I am seriously thinking of having the following custom bumper sticker made. What kind of trouble does anyone think I can get into just by displaying this on my car?:

Sic semper tyrannis

I know little to no Latin, and so I can credibly plead ignorance to its meaning. The phrase mentions no one by name. Pretty nebulous, by any standard.

So, what say you? Am I asking for trouble? I would give my life to be used as the effective impetus of the Revolution, but how bad could this be for me?

BTW, it will be VERY LARGE LETTERS.

Lastly, would anyone else be interested in one, to defray the cost?

The disgruntled actors amongst us might like it.

“It Is Always Tyranny”? Just a guess...

My point is, I don’t want to know. I just want the sticker.

In days gone past, it probably would’ve been pretty innocent and merely drawn a few puzzled looks. These days I wouldn’t be surprised if it triggered a visit from Secret Service. Just my $0.02.

You do recall that Jeanel or whatever her name was friend of Trayvon could not even passably speak English. And she is “the future.” What do you think the idiots will “think” when they see something in Latin?

I prefer not to paint a bullseye on my car... but that’s just me.

See post 3; it’s already on the Virginia state seal.

Exactly.

That’s why I chose Latin, and not French.

In that case, you are definitely better off having it printed in Cursive. Tall, slim letters, with a heavy slant.

Anyone who does not know its meaning will probably not go to the trouble of attempting to decipher it. Deface it, probably, depending on how long you wait at stoplights in some areas, but that is a given with any bumpersticker, vehicle, or unattended wall. :)

If you are any kind of conservative, you already have a bright red bullseye on you. That ship has sailed.

Thanks for the tip. That will definitely throw off the drones.

Why not just “Death to Tyrants”?
