Sorry if I implied that. I think it is very eloquently put. I think the guy who flipped you off was hateful. You assume it is from your bumper sticker. Whatever the reason, the dudes got problems. He was probably looking for someone to flip off. You may not have been the only one he flipped off that day! He might be on his way to Sacramento today and if he does it there his ass might get shot and it won't even make the newspapers. I am glad you advertise how you feel. You have guts. It is a sign of strength. I would keep the sticker. I have seen others that are just plain foolish, that are hateful. That both sides of the political spectrum put out. Those stickers and the attitudes that come with them get us nowhere. It is solutions and positve action that get us somewhere. More trees is a solution. So that Kook, if it was your sticker that angered him. probably felt good about himself for about 2 minutes. Eventually, his own negativity will eat him alive.

I'm speaking for living things that have no voice. Things that I love and depend on. It's unfortunate that environmentalism has been associated with extremism. Everyone benefits from clean air and water, biodiversity, healthy forests, etc. To believe that one can't love the planet due to their political beliefs is to succumb to the trickery of politicians.<BR/><BR/>Anyone unfamiliar with the Bush Administration's plundering of the environment needs to read <A HREF="http://www.amazon.com/Crimes-Against-Nature-Corporate-Plundering/dp/0060746874" REL="nofollow">Crimes Against Nature</A>. You will be shocked within the first 5 minutes of reading the book! You will be amazed at what goes on outside the public eye.<BR/><BR/>You are correct though, in that bumper stickers do not change people's mind about things. I certainly don't spontaneously reject reason when somebody displays an anti Darwin/evolution sticker. And I most certainly don't flip them off if I disagree with their views.<BR/><BR/>I replaced the Bush sticker with Crank Brothers and Race Face stickers.Jeff Moserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13198489612535782394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8555091.post-11875168023215164912007-06-01T08:07:00.000-07:002007-06-01T08:07:00.000-07:00I could type so much about this stuff...I could type so much about this stuff...Smudgemohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16303716097523565767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8555091.post-87194771606191072402007-05-31T23:26:00.000-07:002007-05-31T23:26:00.000-07:00Messages of hate just create more hate.

I have not opened a history book that has shown me that an attitude of hate has had any positive result on an individual or a nation. It is the opposite that gets meaninful results. Hate is just a reflection of the things about yourself that you dont like.Marcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11069503987575033897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8555091.post-32719346869216113872007-05-31T19:38:00.000-07:002007-05-31T19:38:00.000-07:00heh!heh!~ laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12466216735337880383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8555091.post-3547424074058547262007-05-31T17:03:00.000-07:002007-05-31T17:03:00.000-07:00Whoa...did I write that?
