I am god here now so I can edit my post any time I want.

I thought it was going to be something serious, like a misplaced apostrophe.

You know, like, "Trump voter's are dumb fucker's". But probably none of them would even notice.

Profanity in public has been known to result in disorderly conduct charges.

 

[ideologyhunter]

If you stick to known Donaldisms though, as your standard, it should at least be acceptable to yell 'Shit' and 'Pussy' in public. I'm probably missing some.

Cohen v. California, 403 U.S. 15 (1971), was a United States Supreme Court case dealing with freedom of speech. The Court overturned a man's conviction for the crime of disturbing the peace for wearing a jacket in the public corridors of a courthouse that displayed the phrase, "Fuck the Draft".

Yeah but corridors are easily subject to drafts.

And drafts do no good to your health. So, yeah, fuck!

Very understandable and acceptable I think. Any judge can see that.

Also, no one human being in particular would have been insulted, and certainly not the President. So, very different situation.

Plus, I would guess that policemen and law enforcement people generally can easily develop a sensibility to words such as 'fuck you'.

Personally, I sympathise. Yeah, to some extent.

Officers cannot cite citizens for offensive language directed at the officer.

Double penalty. Fuck! My heart goes out to them.

Truck Driver Considering Civil Rights Lawsuit Against Sherrif

The woman targeted by the Fort Bend County, Texas sheriff for her vulgar anti-Trump truck sticker is now selling her wares online. According to Houston’s KHOU news station, Karen Fonseca and her kids are selling the stickers for $15 a piece — and they’re going fast.
“I never chose to be in the news at all,” Fonseca said. “Until [Sheriff] Troy Nehls made it public on his personal Facebook page.”
The report notes that the stickers were created by young members of the Fort Bend County Democrats who designed the decal who are now backlogged with orders for the notorious sticker.

 

[Jimmy Higgins]

I'm not a fan of the sticker, it is huge, divisive, and obnoxious.

But the Sheriff decided to make this a public issue, which I wonder if it is even legal to have done.

*waits for local resolution for 'traffic safety' where stickers on cars must not exceed a certain size*

 

[KeepTalking]

The truck owner has since added another sticker to her truck, inviting everyone to also fuck the sheriff and those who voted for him.

 

[Elixir]

I'm not a fan of the sticker, it is huge, divisive, and obnoxious.

And at exactly whose feet do you lay responsibility for the greatly increased acceptability of all things YUUUUGE, divisive and obnoxious?

Right.

I find it delicious.

 

[Jimmy Higgins]

And at exactly whose feet do you lay responsibility for the greatly increased acceptability of all things YUUUUGE, divisive and obnoxious?

Obama of course. Or maybe Hillary Clinton. I suppose it just depends which way the wind is blowing.

 

[ZiprHead]

I just read on FB that the woman is now selling the stickers and others and making a killing. You may see one of those on a vehicle near you soon.

Just goes to show, sometimes its best to just leave things as they are.
