    Saw a car a while back with "I *heart* meth" as a bumpersticker.

    I think we crossed the Rubicon when people started hanging anatomically correct testicles off their trucks.

    I find it a bit sketchy that the line for proper decorum is drawn on something where the message is at issue as much as the delivery, but maybe it is innocent.

    I think the ACLU would turn an actual attempt to prosecute into a quagmire for the sherriff.

    This is not a thread complaining that someone said something bad about Trump. Its about the language on display. Just like the sticker I think the balls, smoke, and confederate flag are all stupid.

    Do you want to see this kind of language on display? yes, no, don't care


    Please don't high jack my thread its not about Trump. Its about the language on display.

    I don't like it at all, I was just pointing out this has been going on for quite a while. I see it as an unfortunate coarsening of culture. You see it everywhere in all media and in public discourse.

    I think the type of person that would rock a sticker like that is the type of person that would have outstanding warrants for their arrest.

    I am no more a fan of that kind of language than I am a fan of someone driving around and loudly playing a rap song's violent, sexist, sexually explicit, homophobic, racist, and all-around offensive lyrical content. I am not a fan of it - I do not like it.

    I don't really know, but the topic of this thread is about it being displayed in public.

    absolutely NOT.

    the bigger the audience/reach and the more popular the perpetrator is the worse it is. do you agree?

    I'd say it was the "Calvin pissing on logos" thing.

    The part that made it silly is the officer claiming he wanted to help the person from getting into altercations.

    He would need to make a call to half of his area with the tons of conservatives all stickered out - 'endangering' themselves

    You need to use a razorblade. Everyone can still see the nobama sticker next to tbe salt life

    Yes. We all say and do stupid things. Some people like to tweet stupid things.

    There are already enough threads about tweeters. I really would not like this to turn in to another one.

    I got a Eminem CD that pretty much touches on all those subjects. Just like the sticker in question Eminem's music is not for everyone.

    Note for the non Houston folks who haven' seen this on the local news: the sticker is huge and fills up the whole back window of the truck.

    I read strangers have paid for her food in drive thru lines so I guess it is working out for her (minus the whole going to jail for outstanding warrants thing).

    Too many to enumerate, and I see no objective value in attempting to do such.

    What about the people with testicles hanging from the trailer hitches on thier trucks? That’s offensive and not something that you want to explain to your kids, right? Or what about the the people who attach confederate flags to thier trucks? Not a stretch at all to argue that it can incite a breach of the peace.

    What’s good for the goose...

    Fairly certain that all of those things have been addressed in this thread multiple times.

    Again, just a double standard. I can name violent, racist, mysoginist movies all day long that conservatives like MC Roho have no problem with but oh the rap music, that's a problem.
