I think if he offered to sell her a tow truck and give her instructions on how to tow a vehicle, no one would have an issue.

Exactly...  I find this as funny as in the crowder video at a Bernie sanders rally where none of them would share a Bernie sign to waive.

Almost as bad as NFL players coming onto the field with their hands up, Bruce Springsteen refusing to play NC, actors boycotting events, Obama refusing to go to funerals.....ect....ect....

I think this guys major crime must be that he wasn't famous...... or liberal.
Had he been a liberal refusing to tow someone with a Trump bumper sticker, he'd be getting invited to speak on college campuses.

So we're back to this argument for bad behavior?

Well, that made no sense.  Thanks?

That's a good point...how liberals make a hero out of people who stand up to people that they disagree with their politics.

Good thing conservatives never do that.

Who disagrees?

This is the correct answer.


Even though he claimed the Lord told him to do it, I think heis decision was based more on her political beliefs than religious discrimination.

I think it is little silly to compare leaving a helpless woman stranded by the side of the road to making a symbolic political statement.

He has the right to do what he did, but what he did was a lot higher on the asshole scale than all the things you mention.

Yes, he was an asshole.
I was up for 24 hours and was a little grumpy and asshole-ish, myself.


And yes Dino, Cons do it too.

Didn't this guy have a history of non payment with other Bernie sanders bumper sticker people?

Two prior issues with them hasseling him on the $50 tow.

Can't people just be assholes without bringing god's approval into it anymore? Geez. I'd have more respect for the guy if he just made it about politics and not about divine intervention.

He pretty much did.....  He said she could get the government tow service

Pretty clever.  I guess if I ever see a Republican who needs help I should cleverly say "Hey, why don't you get your GUN to help you! MWA HA HAAA!"  or some other sort of stereotypical nonsense.

Again, the guy is free to do whatever he wants, I guess I just don't see what is so clever or "lord-sanctioned" about the whole situation.  With that being said, this does remind me why I don't have bumper stickers.

I like your style, so I think you're the man to ask......

If the USA becomes Socialist, does everyone receive the same amount of BJ's ?
And I bring that up (no pun) to illustrate that the driver of the tow truck should have questioned the Bernie supporting woman.
I mean, it's possible he could have at least got a hummer for the tow.

Given our current "capitalist" system of subsiding the ultra rich I'm wondering if a percentage of the BJ's we give and receive are given to Wal Mart and the oil industry to compel them to continue to create jobs in this country.

Also, I'm a Libertarian so I fully believe sexual acts between consenting adults should be handled in a capitalistic manner if they wish.

I have multiple jokes to slide in here but if I actually hit reply on any of them I would probably be suspended for violating someone's safe space.

Unfortunately, in our current system, those corporations being subsidizing are going after the other end.

A video of this would have been hilarious.

EDIT: I suppose more similar joke to telling a Bernie supporter to have the government tow her would be telling a Republican with car trouble to call the NRA, or something. In each case it's a bit of a non-joke, is the point. Anywho, this thread seems to have run its course.
