"NO FAT CHICKS" Bumper Stickers
Replies

they shouldn't be illegal, but anyone with any class wouldn't have one. if tacky bumper stickers were illegal, how would you otherwise immediately identify *kitten*? they can be sneaky, you know? but these clues.. they're helpful!0

I'm just saying its exactly the same as any group - "disabled people", "black people", "asians", "midgets", etc. These groups experience discrimination. There would be a major reaction if there were stickers referring to such groups. Fat people experience discrimination too, so similar logic.
The difference is, "midgets" and black people can't help being short and black. Obesity is something a person does to themselves. *Token disclaimer about hypothyroidism exceptions, blah blah blah*0 -
Maybe they mean Chicks as in Chickens? :flowerforyou:

Anyone been lucky enough to see one of these on the back of some *kitten*'s car? Makes me want to take a sledgehammer to it.
Imagine if there was a similar sticker referring to another group based on appearance. I can think of a few examples that would not be legal. These should be illegal too I reckon.
This is the logic that got Obama elected. Twice.
Its called freedom of speech. You can read about it in the US Constitution. While I personally think you are a turd if this is on your car, i also feel you shouldn't have your right to look like an idiot infringed upon...
^^^^Exactly this.
Yup. It's perfectly legal for the KKK to hold rallies/marches too. Not saying that they're "right" (adjective) but they do have that Constitutional right (noun).
Offending someone isn't against the law. There are plenty of tasteless bumper stickers, tee-shirts, etc out there. But hey, someone thinks they're funny. Some people don't like fat chicks; that's their personal preference and other than it maybe hurting your feelings, really has no bearing on your life. If it upsets you that much, you're obviously giving way too much emotional power to complete strangers.
Obviously if they could refuse to allow fat chicks into a restaurant or store or anything like that, then you may have a legitimate complaint, but someone simply voicing that they don't find a particular body type attractive? Hardly worth your energy/anger IMO.0 -
No group should be "protected" and that goes for race, weight, gender, ANYTHING. "Protected" classes = reverse discrimination. There's nothing more "wrong" than being a normal, straight, white male in this country. It's sad. Are the bumper stickers stupid? Yeah. But it shouldn't be illegal to speak your mind and apparently he doesn't like fat girls.

Never! Never call a dwarf a midget. They get highly offended by that. My cousin is a dwarf. ***Just a tip here.
Do the sticker's bother me? No because it's like that other poster said " Shows me who to avoid".
If my husband could find a sticker that said "Feed a skinny b---- a cheeseburger" He would have that on his car. Yes I know he's an idiot. LOL
he prefers to be called a dwarf? I'd rather be called a midget... or a people mc nugget or something0 -
I find those stickers to be very handy. Now I definitely know to avoid those guys.
^^this. And also those hanging balls from the trailer hitch.
Yeah these things are just a red flag that screams "I don't want to know this person".0 -
I saw one that said "No fat chicks. Truck will scrape." Really, bro? What an effin' tool.0
-
I just want a "Where's the Beef" bumper sticker, are those discriminatory? :ohwell:0

I'm going to take a wild guess that you are straight and white.0 -

Brb, starting a gofundme.com support account for all the poor, oppressed straight white males out there. It must be truly awful to be them.0 -

LMAO. I tried to buy her a shirt that said "Honary Oompa loompa"0 -
Actions have consequences.
I'd bet cars with truck nuts or "no fat chicks" stickers get keyed more often than cars without.
Absolutely. A guy in my complex has his lifted-up d-bag truck all decked out with some rather nasty bumper stickers, gun rack, flag, etc., and now parks his car two blocks over because it kept getting vandalized in our family-friendly complex. Not saying it's okay to vandalize someone else's property, but I don't really have any sympathy for the guy either.0 -
Wait, so what got Obama elected, exactly? Everybody else seems to understand that but me.0

Nothing illegal about them, but I bet they have small weenies and smaller brains if they have to have such a bumper sticker.
I had a neighbor across the street that used to have a bumper sticker that said "show me your t*ts. I figured it just showed his lack of class. He worked for Carmax, and the bumper sticker was removed after a couple of weeks. Wonder why?
"love your boobies" bumper sticker = breast cancer awareness
"show me your tits" bumper sticker = lack of class
Go figure...0 -

She's 26 with 4 kids. Kind of increases the probability of straightness.0 -

Inflammatory bumper stickers are a form of trolling. If you put out bait, you gotta expect to get a bite once in awhile.
Add: it's tempting to make "prefers fat boys" bumperstickers to anonymously add-on to the displays of the "no fat chicks" bumpersticker crowd.0 -

Didn't need to check her profile, I just had to read her comment. It screams "Privileged white woman".0 -
My favorite is "If you're going to ride my *kitten* at least pull my hair."0

Let me see if I get this right...
I don't have the right to put tasteless bumper stickers on my vehicle, but you have the right to deface and vandalize my private property if I do it anyways.0 -
Actually, deleting what I wrote. Don't feel like getting into this thread.0

I think the correct term is "African American" and not "Black People" Live and let live. Just remember, all police officers my not be slender. Karma's a ":^%!0

Wait! Can I get both my government check and the sugar lobby check I'm already collecting?0 -

Did you notice that you called straight white men "normal"? What does that make everyone else? When people use the word "privilege", that's exactly what they mean.0 -

They consider the term Midget as an insult... mainly because of the whole jobs as Circus Freaks. Or "Little People"0 -

Not all black people are from Africa, fyi. My daughter is half black and her biological dad's family is from Barbados and he despises the term AA because they are not from Africa.0
