Bumper Stickers!

[queerbychoice]

My official First Bumper Sticker Ever arrived in the mail today. It says:

You measure democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents, not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.
Abbie Hoffman

Actually I think "democracy" is the wrong word, because I'm not that big a fan of "democracy" and I certainly don't equate the term with fairness. But Abbie Hoffman said "democracy" and I think that will suffice to get the basic message across.

I bought it here. I also bought "END SANCTIONS ON IRAQ NOW", "QUESTION GENDER", "QUEER: bold or daring, brave, original, unrestrained by existing conventions, uninhibited", and a set of politically-themed magnetic poetry. But I haven't applied the other bumper stickers yet, because I want to spend time contemplating whether, which, and where I want to apply any others. So the Abbie Hoffman is the first, because I knew exactly where I wanted to put it (right in the center).

I am happy. My car is beautiful.

Why do you feel the need to tell people who are complete strangers and who are only on the same road as you by an accident of timing and circumstance, anything at all?

What is the point?

There is no point.
