Dream on and screw you.  We're reasonable people who realize the ridiculousness of judging a neighbor by their license plate.  You can't say you support peace and tolerance and liberal values, and then dismiss the family next door because you suspect you disagree with them politically.   This whole thread disgusts me, and I only hope the op and her supporters are the Russians.  Otherwise I really do fear for my country. [/quote]

What assumptions do you make when you see a COEXIST bumper sticker on a car?

People express themselves in different ways. The Gadsen flag was a protest against tyranny. ACTUAL tyranny. So people who put it on their license plate during the Obama years are expressing that they compared Obama's presidency to tyranny. This is an explicit choice of hostile expression. One absolutely CAN take this at face value and it's not inconsistent with supporting peace, tolerance, and liberal values because the notion that Obama was tyranny is invalid on its face. This notion that somehow a liberal is being hypocritical for drawing conclusions about someone that are being telegraphed loudly and clearly is ludicrous. If you don't want to be judged, don't wear your damn politics on your sleeve -- or your license plate.[/quote]

I guess the aggressive drivers with "coexist" bumper stickers really aren't hypocritical at all then.  And I guess I should assume all people with "coexist" stickers are actually raging hypocrites.[/quote]

I assume all people with coexist bumper stickers want to proclaim their support for various forms of tolerance. Though they may be hypocritical, or terrible drivers.

I assume all people with Gadsden license plates are want to proclaim that they are Tea Party supporters, though they may be hypocritical or terrible drivers.
