Bumper Sticker Moran

I was stuck in traffic last week behind a 1976 Ford Econoline van. It was a work truck, you could see paint buckets and rollers through the dingy windows. The oxidizing paint was plastered with decals and stickers.

At least five American flags, three Bush Chaney stickers, the ominous W the President, NRA membership, the You can have my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers, God is my Co Pilot, the Fish and...

I kid you not...

"If guns are outlawed, only criminal's kids will accidentally kill themselves."

I can only imagine that the driver was the same guy in the infamous "Get A Brain, Moran's!" picture.

that he has to hold his truck together with bumper stickers.

5. Can't find it anywhere now, but wasn't his first sign "Get a BRIAN"?

I swear I saw a pic in which the first sign he had said "Get A BRIAN, MORANS!". I know I saw it, and of course I can't find it anywhere now. Evidently he fixed the "BRIAN" to "BRAIN" but neglected to correct the "MORANS" to "MORONS".
He could have used the Queen's English, however, and his message would have still been backwoods-ass ignorant.

12. Ah, that is a classic picture. It never gets old, does it?

What is the history of that picture anyways? Who took it? Does the idiot in that picture know he's famous?

6. "only criminals' kids will accidentally kill themselves"

Let me try to wrap my brain around that one. He's saying that if guns remain legal, then the kids of law abiding citizens will be able to accidentally kill themselves, too.

:wtf:

7. I believe the sticker was as sarcastic play on the NRA meme

of "if guns are outlawed..." and essentially a pro gun control statement.

This guy didn't get it. It had the words kill and guns, so in his little mind it was a good thing.

8. What's scary is this "moran" can vote. No wonder these fuckwits

voted for Comm. Bunnyp.

Truth is a lie, and a lie is truth. Irony is a good thing. Black is white.
