Pickaninny???

I've seen more than just a few mud-flaps with the silhouettes of naked women, but I don't ever recall any p-words.

Must get out more.

I like people to have rascist things on their trucks or clothing.

Makes them easier to spot.

The bigots that cause problems are the ones you can't spot and who say all the right things, like the Democrat leadership.

I think they should ban bupper stickers.

Why not go all out to violate our right of free expression, why stop? /s

Hey, I'm offended when I see the naked women on trucks. But I also support the truckers' right to offend me.

I also support my right to boycott whatever company the truck belongs to, if any. ;-)

And the question always is - WHO GETS TO DEFINE HATE SPEECH and subsequently what to ban...

I had to go look pickaninny up. I thought it meant a bunch of kids that roamed the streets. I didn't know it was racial.

"I personally am tired of explaining to my 11-year-old son why they (women) are depicted on mud flaps, but not all women are 36Ds. He's very confused by that," Ulmer said.

If that confuses him, maybe you should cut back on his Ritalin dose.

"Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Gilbert, opposed the amendment, saying it probably violated First Amendment protections for free speech...."

If a judge can somehow come to the conclusion that the first amendment allows you to walk around on public streets with no clothes, like I think one state judge in Maryland or Connecticut did, than surely this would fall under the first amendment.

"but not all women are 36Ds. He's very confused by that"

Every young man comes to this realization some sad day.

Democratic Rep. Ben Miranda of Phoenix voted for the amendment but said he did so only because he felt compelled to do so because a vote against it could be misconstrued.

Idiot!

Their eleven year-old son is confused about women not all being 36-D's because of truck mudflaps? If that is the case, then the first time he sees a Playboy he is going to go stark raving mad.

I swear sometimes I think the human race as a whole is completely helpless, now, way past the point of no return. No one is safe, we're all at risk unless we pass more stupid laws. We deserve to be annihilated by aliens.

Har! I guess it's better that the scumbag Democrats are busying themselves with idiotic crap like "splash guards" rather than pushing tax hikes and gun bans, etc.

Another example of some fools trying to enforce the little known right to not be offended.

the word "pickaninny" — a derogatory term for black children

Pickaninny is a term that was used for the half back/half white children on plantations. If they happened to be the plantation owner's children, they would most often become house servants.

Ed probably misread Peterbuilt.

I assume the bag with two bowling balls in it that you see hanging from the back of an occasional truck is still ok, right?

As I've not heard or seen the 'pickaninny' thing before I'll not comment on that, but as for the rest of it...please people...try to relax just a bit. It's not a hate crime (yet) to admire the silhouette of a woman.

I'm offended by the gay culture I see on TV and in todays magazines, etc, but I don't think many are concerned about it. Not PC to be offended by them. Also, I must call them gays, not fags, so as not to offend THEM.
