After the wonderful Reagan Library trip yesterday, a caravan of FReepers headed for Rabid Dog's house for a FReeper party. We all enjoyed the great hospitality.
On the 101 FReeway heading to the party I encountered a jerk in a tan Ford F150. I will give you part of his license plate: _E6478_. I would like to give the entire thing but JimRob probably wouldn't want that.
As some of you know, I have magnetic stickers on my car so they can be removed when I park. We on the right worry about the angry whackjobs on the left doing damage to our vehicles.
Two of the signs have angered only a few motorists. The two that get to them are fairly large. One says -- NEVER TRUST DEMOCRATS WITH NATIONAL SECURITY; the other says NEWS BULLETIN: AL QAEDA SUPPORTS KERRY (duh). Most of the time I get a thumbs up. Mrs. DFU coined the phrase: Hey, you've been thumbed up.
In this case, it was no thumbs up. A real jerk slowed down next to me from the fast lane and stayed just far enough in front of me to make sure I made eye contact. He had a boy of about 12 and girl of about 9 in the truck. They both did the same thing that John Kerry did to the Vietnam vet recently who told Kerry he had no business at the Vietnam Memorial. Yep, both little cherubs flipped me off.
Their dad laughed and was really proud of his children. I simply gave them a salute. When my children were small, I would never have given any thought to having them flip someone off. Had they done it on their own, they would have been grounded or worse.
What is wrong with those on the other side? Not all, but many of them are truly disgusting human beings.
"IF THERE WERE NO GODLESS HATEFUL PEOPLE,
THE DEMOCRATS WOULD BE AN EMPTY PARTY."
Now that is a good bumper sticker!
Take exception to the above statement.
It should read. . .MOST of them are truly disgusting human beings.
That said, you are a brave Freeper and a great American!
when you say you saluted, do you mean a one fingered salute, or a salute?
A regular salute would have those folks all wondering about their actions
Most decent sporting goods stores, including Bass Pro shops and Cabelas(Who have websties), sell game trail cameras that operate off of an infared sensor. In other words, it only snaps a pic when something warm blooded walks within range of the sensor.
They are relatively cheap(Less than $100), they are painted dark colors or camo, they take pics in the dark, and they are easy to operate. Set it up in a tree or bush, and forget about it.
They've embraced whoppi's views of life.
Doug...
You're right about Leftists and bumper stickers..
They believe only THEY have the right to display their "message" on cars...
I had a gentleman in Israel mail me about a dozen "CNN LIES" bumper stickers which he produced after catching CNN in broadcasting LIES about events between the IDF and Pali cockroach lunatics...
I promply applied them to the rear windows of all the family cars and a neighbor requested some for his..
My wife and I were leaving a restaurant one evening, and caught a trophy version of a leftist moron (the type with pins in the eyebrow and multiple rings in the ears and nose and a huge pin through his damned tonge) attempting to peel my CNN LIES sticker off the rear window...
Even though I'm a old fart -- I still stand a straight 6'2" and carry 240 pounds of angry ass kicking mass.
I shouted across the parking lot - *&%^*%)(*&(^*&^&& you better pray that sticker is undamaged or I'm going to kick it about two feet up your A$$.
The stupid bastard took off running in such a panic, he ran directly into the phone booth that was next to my car on the side opposite of my approach -- he hit it so hard, he bounced off and fell the ground obviously more dazed than normal..
He started crying and begging "Don't harm me"...."HARM"...
What the hell kind of a word is that for a brave sticker stealing Nazi to use....
The downside of the story -- is my sainted wife blamed ME for causing the idiot to hurt himself...
"You shouldn't always be trying to start trouble with people"....
Wives....you figure them out and let me know..
Semper Fi
Beer for My Horses is a great song.
It was a real salute. On each side of my car, I have stickers that say MILITARY FAMILY FOR BUSH/CHENEY.
I hate to say it, but there are idiots on all sides. A family friend of mine had her Kerry bumper sticker defaced with a blade, scratching the car's paint job.
Let's not pretend that our opponents are the only ones who forget civility in a political season.
Great story, river rat.
That's a good idea with the magnetic stickers. I put my Bush-Cheney 04 sticker on two weeks ago, and am crossing my fingers. I haven't been keyed yet, but I live in Austin, the liberal bastion of anti-Americanism in an otherwise conservative state.
The good news though, is that I have definitely noticed more and more pro-Bush stickers lately. Too bad this isn't Ohio or a swing state.
Ventura County is a small county (even though it is huge). Why don't you freepmail me the license plate number and I'll distribute it via freepmail to our Ventura County FReepers?
A regular salute would have those folks all wondering about their actions
Personally, when I meet up with Rat Trash, like DFU did, I give them the "three finger salute" a la "W".
The majority are imbeciles and the ones doing their thinking for them are socialists (communists).
It is clear that the great majority of idiots are on the other side.
Last October I visited the LBJ Library in Austin. It sucked compared to the Bush Library in College Station. Bush did not have to take an 8mm camera to recreate the sub picking him up out of the water after he was shot down.
Check your FReepmail.
Everyone of our cars have been attacked by (presumably) leftists.
