This thread has nothing to do with race. The debatable issue is whether or not the bumper sticker insinuated a death threat to Obama. My take on it is that clearly it's not a serious death threat. But it was a blatant enough insinuation that they driver deserved a bit of bother from an officer inclined to give it to him. You're not allowed to joke about offing the Prez.
It's not a joke at all, well not on the life of the President (who's just a guy, there's plenty of people in this country that can do the job...hell that's what the VP is for) and he didn't do anything to be pulled over and harassed by a cop. There was nothing there that was a serious threat on the Presidents life in the least and I don't think you should be able to be harassed and have your property taken over political commentary and dissent. Especially dissent.
