Yesterday while working my morning job at my dad's hardware store a customer comes in and asks: "Who drive that white Ford out there?"
Me: "................" Customer: "The white 4-door Ford." Me: "....................." Customer: "Maybe it's a customer then." so he walks around and asks a couple people if it's their truck, finally he comes up to me and says "I can'r find them. It's the one out there with the 'Extremely Rightwing' sticker on it" Me: "OHHH, thats my truck" Customer: "Oh, why didn't you say so?" Me: "Cause it's a Toyota, not a Ford." Customer: "Oh, well, I really like that sticker, where can I get one." I guess I need to buy a bunch to sell here at the store..... |

| While I don't see a problem with him buying them from LaRue, and then reselling them I'd probably give them away too. If someone see's the sticker and actually takes the time to search for the person that owns the vehicle to say "Hey nice sticker" then he definitely gets a freebie. I do that with all my extra GBOT stickers. Any time someone I know asks about it I tell them I have extras if they want one. |

Well, I've only ever ordered a couple of things new from LaRue. I'm not knocking the LaRue store by any means, but most items I've wanted I could find in the EE for used pricing, therefor, even though I have several LaRue items, the only swag I ever gotten was 1 of each bumper sticket. Now, if I had a bunch of stickers lying around like many of you do, I would absolutely hand them out, but if I have to buy a 10 pack, I'm gonna charge 4 bux each to recoop my expense. I don't thinks that's in any way unfair. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Okay.... I've been trying to rationalize a LT purchase so I could have "Extremely Rightwing" http://stores.homestead.com/Laruetactical/catalog/BumperSticker10%20Pack.jpg in front of my http://www.tescbookstore.com/outerweb/product_images/10072806t.jpg on my new (to me) Suburban. The combination of those 3 elements should create critical mass, and numerous aneurysms, in wetside WA. If you want a sticker IM me your address and I will send you a pair. |

Anyone who's ever been to Asheville knows how liberal the city is, mostly due to the transplants, but I'm a local country kid from the NC mtns, and don't fall into that category, it really makes a lot of people look at my truck funny. oh, and guys, I really do appreciate to offers for the stickers, but it really isnt necessary. By no means was i trying to start a thread trying to get some free swag, I just thought it was funny that the guy asking about the sticker seemed so confused about it being a non-American truck with the ER sticker i guess. |

about a month or so back, my dad fell at home and ended up going to the hospital via ambulance.
when the ambulance arrived, one of the emt's had noticed my bumper sticker and mention it was cool, so after my dad was loaded I gave the emt one of the extra copies that I had in the car. he was very thankful for it. it's one of the positive episodes that i've had while displaying it. |

Speaking of stickers ... got this awhile back ...
I proudly display my "Extremely Rightwing" sticker on the back of my car. I was in New York City the other day to pick up my sister's dog. I thought I found a safe parking spot, but apparently it wasn't. I came out and found a "Parking Citation" under my wiper. Attached is the note I got from a great NYPD officer!
