I was stuck behind an idiot today.

I pulled out on the road today behind a pickup truck bearing a bumper sticker that said, "Illegal Immigration: No Border, No Order, No Nation." First of all, why are so many of the ignorant bumper stickers on pickup trucks? Nevermind, know that answer.

But seriously, what was this moron thinking? Unless they were a Native American, which would be rare here in this little town, THEY ARE AN IMMIGRANT. Maybe not illegal, per se, but most of our ancestors certainly weren't asking permission, were they?

I'll tell you what it made me think of - a two year old who grabs a toy saying, "Mine, mine, mine!" Give me a break. We Americans have everything in the world at our fingertips - must we so crudely advertise it?

I don't know. That sticker just rubbed me the wrong way.
