Perhaps you have seen reference to the woman who gave the finger to the presidents motorcade. I ignored it until I saw it at Fox News. I didn’t know whether to laugh or scream in rage.
I would laugh because it is such a trivial thing. A frustrated lefty gives the finger. It is an everyday event. We see pictures of illegals going it all the time. How does this make the news?
I want to scream because to me this is a first amendment issue. It really doesn’t matter that I don’t agree with her. It isn’t important that I would consider her a brainwashed lefty fool. What matters is that in the decayed culture of today giving the finger is so common that it is something to be ignored. Also it is specifically the kind of thing that the right to free speech is supposed to cover: An out of power person saying something that the in-power don’t like.
It would seem to me that if you can burn a flag, stand over a picture of a corpse with a “Trump” tag on the toe, put on a play with a presidential look-alike murdered and so many other offensive actions, you should be able to give a stream of cars the finger.
Maybe this is time for another presidential pardon.
Maybe she just doesn’t like Cadillacs.

Personally, I've always thought they should cut off the fingers of those who use them for profanity. Hmmm, now about tongues.......
ReplyDeleteYou are a hard man Gorges. What would they use to block their ears if you cut off their fingers.
