Will, are you a big guy? Stature-wise, that is.

Tough break but no one deserves to be threatened in their home. It may behoove you to point some cheap, wireless cameras at your driveway and/or back yard.

Just in case.

But if nothing of significance has happened yet, they may be all bark and no bite, which his good, I guess.

I am sure it's all bark and no bite. The guy today was way out of shape, and other than having a good 50 pounds on me, would have been easy to take down. And the guy who threw the rocks is a cancer patient.

So I am not worried.

That is one of the hazards of living in that area... It is too bad when left wingers feel the need to become confrontational! ... The last I checked? This is still a free country!... What an asshat of a neighbor to actually suggest you had better take it off your car!... Radical's no matter is they are left or right are obnoxious!... One of the beautiful things about living in a free democracy is we all can express our opinions in our vote!... It looks like your neighbor needs to accept the fact that Bush is our President!...AND... If you want to have a Bush bumper sticker stuck to your face it is OK! Majority rules the last I heard!

Hoodlumman... for some reason, Will has always had people who want to fight him over ridiculous stuff!...And... Will doesn't back down!... He isn't a big guy exactly! He is probably six feet tall and maybe 155ish! Is that about right? Before he use to leave the house I would say, Don't get into any fights! He is a brat! But a sweet brat!

170, more like.

"155," that's funny.

Heh. Yeah, I was about to rename you "Rail" Franklin.

I never know!...He isn't fat! I don't understand why he has people want to fight him? Especially at basketball games!

It's Texas ... lots of people carry guns ... what kind of moron would throw rocks at someone's window?

Joe Grossberg... A Radical Leftist, Anti American, Liberal Democrat, Socialist perhaps?...The Hilary Clintons, Nancy Pelosis, Howard Deans, and Ted Kennedys of the world?... Not to mention Dick Durbin and I am sure there must be more you might be able to point out to me!

Liberals.

Supporting free thought...Unless you disagree with them.

Hello, just the fact that he was so intolerant and had to be right shows who the real BIGOT is! If you see him again... You might tell him not to be surprised if he looks in the dictionary under the word Bigot is his picture!

leftist don't cary guns.
their main weapon is diarrhea of the mouth.

Baby blue longhorn shirt? I thought they only sold those in the female section of the Co-op.

There's nothing about the shirt that gives it a gender. I mean, it's a t-shirt, it's not cut in a special female way or anything. It doesn't have cute hearts or flowers on it. And it's a normal men's size, too.

And I actually bought it in the normal section, next to all the other non-gendered t-shirts. But I have noticed since then that they are now trying to market them as a female shirt. Which is weird, to me. Why?

Will... Is Ian trying to insinuate you are a cross dresser?...Hmmm...

Oh! Who are the bigots in your neighborhood? In your neighborhood in your neighborhood! ...Sorry I just felt like singing! ...The bigots that you meet each day!

Sounds like a threat.

After thinking about it for a bit, I have one theory on this guy. I live in Republican Martha Wong's Texas legislative district and Republican John Culberson's U.S. House district.

So this guy moves into what he believes to be "Montrose," where everyone thinks just like him. When he learns that his house is actually not "pure" Montrose, he feels ripped off.

Sort of like a racist living in what he believes to be a "good" and "white" neighborhood and has that illusion shattered.

Don't let him get away with that liberal BS next time my good man!

Don't get into a fight! He is just a stoopid radical redneck Liberal! ... What amazes me is they really believe they are such deep thinkers! I just don't get it???

Re: the shirt.

No reason. I just thought it was funny that you're in a Montrose-ish area wearing what I considered a more effeminate shirt.

However, now that I think about it, maybe that guy was checking you out because of the shirt and then saw the sticker and was even more shocked.

Yo mama effeminate.

Will, had that been me instead of you,,I would have gone into my house while the guy was standing there, and put on another Bush bumper sticker to match the one already attached.
Then, I would have told the guy to stay off my property, because I don't like bigots.

Ah...a defender of tolerance strikes again.

This is what you can expect from crazed lefties. We had several cars displaying Bush Cheney stickers get keyed in parking lots on Hilton Head during the election.

Last week, my mother was at the Doctor's office and happend to mention she watched FOX NEWS to a patient in the waiting room. The guy launched on her with alarming ferocity.

It's all part of the moral superiority that these people feel entitled to. They decided a long time ago, as Howard Dean said, that there was a "battle between good and evil and we're (Democrats) the good."

You might recall the scene of the little girl who had her Bush sign torn from her hands by a union thug.

These people will not hesitate for one moment to infringe on your right to free expression at the same time they are cramming their leftwing freakshow views down your throat.

I have nothing to say )))

When he asked, does that say Bush Cheney? That was the first clue that this guy was not exactly the brightest bulb.

Bill, that's exactly right.

Will, when it comes to talking/confronting those types, it is far better to always answer any question they fire at you with another question. This usually takes them aback a bit, and from then on you can just keep firing question after question based on what the their previous answer was. It's a classic debating technique and ensures that you maintain the initiative. Every once in while, you actually get lucky and convert one of them....and it's not like you would suffer from any sort of lack of knowledge.

Besides, they are incredibly physically vulnerable when they are standing there, all excitedly flummoxed trying to answer your hair-trigger interrogatives....

I usually do get more snippy with people like that, but I was just exhausted from the heat and trying to loosen those lug nuts, which had been torqued on there way too tight.

And he asked if it said "Bush / Cheney" because he was astonished, shocked, and appalled that someone could even have such a sticker. His goofy double-take was part of that act. I think he might have expected/hoped it to be a parody or something.

Bro, I hear ya on the heat. I'm a couple of hundred miles east of you on the West bank in NOLA, and it has been stupid hot here also. I took my Boxers outside at 0420 this a.m., and just stood there watching them and perspiring.

I would have paid you ca$h money to hear you retort,"Is that a trick question?"

I feel your pain--there was a block party last fall in our neighborhood to welcome some new people and they asked who lived in our house. The hosts responded, "Oh, we didn't invite them. They're Republicans." Well, the joke was on them because the new people were Repubs too--the husband actually worked for BC04. That's how we found out. The party ended badly.

Open, tolerant and inclusive, aren't they?

Ian Pittman... Do you suppose that Bigot dude thought Will was gay?...Ha!
Will.. just don't let him know where you stand on gay marriage or your house will be egged and demolished!

My wife was thinking it have been just really funny if I was gay and the guy yelling at me was not. Sort of an example of a white liberal yelling at a black Republican for being racist or whatever. Liberal paternalism at its finest.

I've lived in Martin Frost's district for years, until recently! HA HA!!!

Will, you go, you bigot!!

(ps: what did you do to get the guy to call you a bigot again?)

Displaying a bumper sticker that he disagreed with.

You know, when they're yelling those epithets, why, that's just free speech. And you, when you show those bumper stickers, why, that's an assault on free speech.

How can the libs believe they are morally superior? The Dems. are all about abortion and killing innocent handicapped people! Oh? and let's not forget two of their party's Senior Senators! One an "ex-Klu Klux Klan member!...AND... of course Ted run away from the scene of an accident, and leave a woman to drown, party a little more Kennedy!...Not to mention Former Impeached President Bill Clinton! The last I heard those kind of things don't add up to "moral superiority"...

Thank God that Morals still exist in some places in this country... No party is perfect but, I can't stay far enough away from the Dems at this point... They would scare me if I wasn't a Christian. You'll have to forgive me right now as my thoughts and prayers are on our leaders and service people over seas protecting us.... That's where our thoughts should be right now - not with opinions and b.s. back here.
