the iraqi kids will prob. try to hang off of them!

 

I've yet to see anything here that says we can't have them but I still wouldn't. They look stupid IMO. Might as well put a rainbow sticker somewhere on your car near it.

 

This morning there was a Captain behind me and told the gate watch to pull me over and make me take my bumper sticker off that says "Dont Tailgate me i have good insurance" WTF!!!?? Its my car they military is PRYING way to much....

 

You're Blowing this way out of proportion

 

I don't see a problem in banning them. Always thought they were tacky anyways.

 

truck............nuts.........LOLOLOLOL

 

go down to the hardware store and buy a chain and get two big nuts and put them on the chain, then attach them to your car... they can ban them

 

we had a female Sergeant Major that would peal stickers off of vehicles in the parking lot.

Usually the "I support single moms" strippers and mudflap girls got the most attention from her.

and of course theres the local young Marine with the "pls b 18" license plate, and the "I<3VAG" sticker on his vw...

I'm not a truck guy so I could care less about the nuts. I don't like seeing 47 stickers on a vehicle either...just keep it professional.

 

I think it is pretty stupid to be worrying about truck nuts..lol

but being an NCO, we do have to maintain an image. not sure i could even consider a vehicle an image. when i think of image, i think of yourself in uniform and how you carry yourself. not because of truck nuts.

 

One day a couple months ago, my friend and I were talking about how dumb truck nutz were. Well he made trip down to miami one weekend and came back with cocoa nuts. we thought that would be alot funnier to hang them from my hitch than truck nuts. And wouldn't you know some bitch made such a big deal about it that they sent a picture basewide of my excursion via email saying that this is innapropriate and must be removed. I was told not to get caught with'em again. So since it is Christmas I decided to buy huge silver bells to hang instead.
I am civil service btw so don't think I'm in uniform

 

I guess I can understand both sides, both the side of it being offensive and the side of those who want things like this and other decals ect on their cars. The only thing is that now people are too overly sensative to everything. I know I know, we are trying to help made everybody happy, its our jobs, but at what expense. Bases/posts are private, priveledged places to go, and if the commander gets called on them, then he/she has to react. The question is this though, so a female is offended by the "nutz" on the back of a truck...ok taken off, well then a vegetarian is offended by a "hunting" sticker on the back of a truck, take it off, well somebody who sees my upside down longhorn is offensive because they graduated from the University of Texas...take it off...I mean, it becomes a cycle of losing a little bit of self expression. I think that a car with 28s and 12" of lift is a danger to the driver or just plain offensive...do I go tell somebody? What about music that you hear coming from somebodys car? It is just never ending, it continues to push the limits of what needs to be a judgement call vs what needs to be a base/post commanders call. A few of the offensive or "could be offensive" ones that I've seen on post:

"Lifted, because fat girls can't jump"
"My other ride is your mom"
"I'll f**k the fat friend"

Every sticker, every thing that you do to "your ride" that makes it yours may offend somebody else. My neighbor that runs headers into glasspacks on his old short wide lifted truck offends me at 2 in the morning when he leaves for work or pt or whatever, but I don't go make a stink about it, I figure if he passes emissions or whatever in his county, who am I to complain?
