Really. But hey I don't care anymore. I just thought it was funny that you thought this happens.

You may be right, but I can't imagine it does a person any favors. The number of times I've seen some asinine bumper sticker on someone's car and thought, "man, that person is just baiting people for hostile responses." I think of it as if I were a cop and there is a situation where I would be on the line between giving a ticket or a warning. This person has one of those "9-11 was an Inside Job" bumper stickers on their car. Well you bet that idiot is getting a ticket.
