It feels like everyday some hammer-headed politician or special interest group comes up with a new restriction on personal liberty that will make us safer, nicer, greener, or more acceptable to people who already detest us.
We push back and get demonized for believing our rights and freedoms are worth fighting for. We're called names, assumed to be racist, sexist, nationalist, and so on, when all we want is to be free.
Perhaps our problem is that we just haven't asked for our freedoms nicely enough (he said sarcastically), so I printed up some of those European-style bumper stickers asking nicely:

If anyone would like to join me in nicely asking for more freedom, PM me. I'm asking for $3 to cover my printing and postage costs.
Thanks,
