You know what they say...

Whatever floats your boat. Not my cup of tea though.

I really don't give a sh#t one way or the other. But put that on a bumper sticker and see how long before you get pulled over.

Maybe it isn't illegal, but it is close enough that some officers have placed charges and the individuals had to go to some extreme lengths to get themselves cleared. That tells me that this type of "free speech" is "on the edge" at best.

If an individual wants to post that kind of language in his home or garage....so be it! But bumper stickers and motorcycle parts with crude comments amount to a public display. Do we really want our children exposed to that stuff?

I really believe this kind of public display is inappropriate. I really don't have a problem with people being ticketed for such public displays. If an individual feels strongly about dispalying this type of message to the public, they shouldn't mind paying the fine for it. The fine is much lower than the price historically paid by the soldiers who have protected these rights for us.

Just my opinion! You're not obligated to agree or disagree.

"Fredom" is often abused when you impose your will on others that are intitled to their "fredom" from you. If ya put the display in plain view then sending such a message could cause you to NOT meet some good peeps so I sure wouldn't display the piece. I don't like giving the LEOs any reason to contact me and this could be such a reason. It would be fine over the keg in your bar. JMHO

Just not really my style. I may use that kind of language, just not in public for everyone to here or see in this case. I was always taught that my rights end where yours begin.
