If NJ becomes a confederate hotbed maybe they will become a conservative state. Would be nice

Just kidding.

I'm thinking the kid is just being a stupid kid and looking for a little attention. It's the visual equivalent to the one idiot with the boombox on a crowded boardwalk. This southern boy thinks he needs to stand down...

Whatever happened to freedom of expression? All irritated Nazis need to stand down. Thin-skinned people don’t like freedom. Anything and everything irritates someone somewhere. Big deal. Tolerance is good.

You never see PETA protesting leather at biker bars either.

Oh yee haw. I think this was funny in the sense of irony. Nonetheless he might stand to be careful lest someone do something rude to that truck with that flag because some Yankees have no sense of humor AT ALL. Stow the flag when parked, put it up again before leaving.

Wonder why.

Actually if those bikers, who usually do have a soft spot in their hearts for animals, knew what PETA thought of animals, PETA would be in big trouble.

There’s a difference between freedom of expression and driving around in a clown costume. Sure, he shouldn’t be suspended. But somebody who loves him should probably tell him he’s acting like a spoiled little dopey teenager.

While embarrassing, what’s wrong with driving around with a clown costume if you want to do so?

Part of far South Jersey is geographically south of the east-west portion of the Mason-Dixon line... It truly is a different state down there.
