The driver of a pickup displaying an expletive-filled message to President Donald Trump and his supporters in the Houston area was arrested Thursday on an outstanding warrant.
Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office records show Karen Fonseca was arrested about 2 p.m. Thursday on an outstanding fraud warrant issued in August by the Rosenberg Police Department. She remained in the county jail Thursday night with bond set at $1,500.

Pull up next to an Elementary School with a Bull Horn and start screaming, F*** you, you mother********g mother******s.

This thread should be tagged the puritan hypocrites’ thread...
Free speech is still subject to reasonable and content-neutral restrictions on how it is delivered. So as long as you uniformly restrict bullhorning at a school you’re fine.

Yep. Looks like a crazed, unattractive liberal sorta female.
I’ve got an inkling that Texans will take the appropriate actions to rid this vehicle from the road.
