One of them is an American flag, one of them is a pro choice bumper sticker, and a cross. Nothing that fancy or poltical in my eyes. In the timespan I've had the stickers on my car, said car has been keyed numerous times, and some times the sticker itself was removed from the vehicle, my guess is in rage. My mom's reaction on the issue, is to appease the terorists and suppress my own free speech. Funnily she cited seperation of church and state as an argument, which not sure how that's even relevant when my own property is involved. Second, how is appeasing to the terrorists going to solve anything? So when a rabid person decides to cause property damage, it's somehow MY fault because I was asking for it

This is how fascism works. Individuals are intimidated where they live, in their own homes, on their own streets, and they don't see the purpose in risking further property destruction or assaults by defying the fascists. So they go along. They stop speaking their minds. They do what the fascists tell them to do.

The point is lost on most people in this thread. It's not hte bumper sticker that is the problem, it is the behavior of one group having the might of the state to impose their will, whilst supressing the other, than claiming to be the victim of agression they caused. What next? Am I going to have to suppress what I say to, because it might offend someone? Where do we draw the line beyond just keep appeasing to the mob?
