GO BACK TO MASSACHUSETTS
Canadians are attacking Massachusetts vehicles:
Paul Chambers kept his sense of humour as he and his son Jonathan swept shards of glass out of their van Friday on Grafton Street in Halifax.
“I’m in the most liberal state that there is,” said Mr. Chambers of Worcester, Mass. “I could see if I had Texas plates.”
Both Mr. Chambers and his father parked their vans on Grafton Street at about 11 a.m. Friday before heading up to the Halifax Citadel to celebrate Canada Day.
When Mr. Chambers returned to Grafton Street at about 3 p.m., he discovered the front passenger windows had been smashed out of both his and his father’s vans. A sedan with Nova Scotia plates parked between the two vans was spared any apparent damage ...
There was also a report of food being thrown at a van parked next to the Neptune Theatre on Argyle Street in Halifax. It also bore Massachusetts plates.
Chambers’ breezy assumption of an anti-Bush sentiment (“if I had Texas plates”) ignores another possibility: that Halifaxers are deliberately targeting liberals. For safe travel throughout Nova Scotia, be sure to display your Bush/Cheney sticker prominently.
“I’m in the most liberal state that there is,” said Mr. Chambers of Worcester, Mass. “I could see if I had Texas plates.”
He’s probably still confused about why terrorists highjacked a plane from his liberal Massachusetts airport and crashed it into a building in liberal New York.
Damn, that sounds familiar…
I was in Soviet Canuckistan the summer before our election. We had a Bush/Cheney Sticker on the car and suffered no damage to it. Admittedly I would often park the car so as to conceal the bumper sticker. Most of the time was in Toronto but we were also in Montreal.

Sure does. And don’t you just love the implied “yeah, destroying the cars of Bush supporters would at least be understandable to me”.
The thought processes of these people scare me sometimes.
Marcus — The NRA sticker next to the Bush sticker probably scared them off…

On my old blazer that would have been true. I had a Clinton era bumper sticker that said “Charleton Heston is my President!”. I had received quite a few thumbs up on that one.
Some of them came after Clinton was out of DC, and it never struck me some people might be taking that as an anti-Bush statement, in the post-Clinton era.

You’re just advertising that you’ve got easily resold valuables on the property when you’re not home…

Or, my Nova Scotian neighbors up the Gulf of Maine have the same opinion of Massholes that we do.
