akhalteke Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Alan West- “Because as I was driving up here today, I saw that bumper sticker that absolutely incenses me. It’s not the Obama bumper sticker. But it’s the bumper sticker that says, ‘Co-exist.’ And it has all the little religious symbols on it. And the reason why I get upset, and every time I see one of those bumper stickers, I look at the person inside that is driving. Because that person represents something that would give away our country. Would give away who we are, our rights and freedoms and liberties because they are afraid to stand up and confront that which is the antithesis, anathema of who we are. The liberties that we want to enjoy.” Discuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 i always thought co-existing was one of those fundamental principles of democracy, so goddamn basic that the bumper-sticker seems relentlessly corny...i give my boy mike buckets of shit for his.

ivan Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 it's legit to have a cop-oriented bumper-sticker as those things are like paying your insurance, musta got out of at least 2-3 tickets b/c of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off_White Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I dunno Ivan, does the e=mc2 at the end of this one qualify for atheists? I guess I'm kinda with Akhalteke on this, the bumper sticker seems a little precious, but its hardly work getting worked up about what a threat to America it is. I'm guessing the quote came from Allen West, Republican congressman and certifed asshat, unless you mean Alan West, the former lead singer for Bolt Thrower, the sadly defunct British death metal band...

I'm guessing the quote came from Allen West, Republican congressman and certifed asshat, unless you mean Alan West, the former lead singer for Bolt Thrower, the sadly defunct British death metal band... adam west vs allen west - sigh...any joke requiring explanation is double-plus unfunny already in it's defense, it seemed funny enough after the first bottle of wine... "tolerance" is a bumper sticker i can dig much more - basically, i don't like imperatives, and "co-exist" seems like a fucking order which i want to refuse on grounds of simple stubbornness tolerance, by contrast, is a mere noun, and thus easier to take or leave w/o offense (even "imagine whirled peas" pisses me off for this aforementioned reason) e=mc2 seems a poor choice for atheism given einstein's "god does not play at dice" shenanigans, no? i gave up on bumper stickers after my all-time favorite "don't blame me, i voted for jeff davis" sticker finally gave up the ghost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
