Could be, but not his Uber car. It has no stickers other than a cryptic libertarian sign only known to libertarians. He has to drive yuppie liberals around on their ski trips.

The "molon labe" sticker in the fake ancient Greek script is about guns, it roughly translates as "come and take them". Reportedly said by Leonidas of Sparta to the Persians when they demanded the Spartans disarm.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I thought they just had spears and poison, Greeks. Arrows at best, not even the crossbow.

No, he was driving a HMMWV the last time he mentioned cars. Like this, but not this one.

Some cop in Dallas shot and killed a guy she mistook for an intruder after she entered the wrong apartment. No, she wasn't on a call. She was coming home from work!

She still isn't in jail. They wanted more time to investigate. Can you imagine?

I know a guy who did three years because he violated probation by entering the wrong house and falling asleep on a strangers couch. :lol:
She's been arrested. She'll get convicted for that, I think.

WASHINGTON—Fearing for his safety after an incident with Fred Guttenberg the previous day, Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was reportedly packing a gun at his Senate hearing Wednesday in case the father of a Parkland shooting victim tried to shake his hand again. “If that son-of-a-bitch comes up and threatens to greet me one more time, he’s got another thing coming,” said a jumpy Kavanaugh, who concealed a semi-automatic pistol in his belt to protect himself against the gun control activist as he appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee, reaching toward the firearm several times believing he saw Guttenberg approaching to introduce himself out of the corner of his vision. “I’m not going to sit here unable to defend myself against people trying to meet me—I know my Second Amendment rights. This is my confirmation hearing, and if that bastard comes at me again, I’m going to blow off his damn hand.” At press time, a frightened Kavanaugh had grabbed his gun to stand his ground against a threatening black man and shot Senator Cory Booker.
I'm not sure what the joke is here. Packing a gun at Senate hearing? Is Kavanaugh a gun nut of some kind? And, what's with the reference to Parkland shooting victims? Did Kavanaugh do something against them? What's this alluding to?

Kavanaugh refused to shake hands with the parent of a Parkland shooting victim. Plus he is known 2nd amendment supporter. More guns in better because FREEDOM!

The Spartans had no bows and arrows. They regarded them as cowards' weapons.

DALLAS—Insisting that every law enforcement official in America would have done the exact same thing if put in her situation, Dallas officer Amber Guyger claimed Monday that anyone could have mistaken a black man’s apartment for a dangerous firearm. “Listen, when your instincts kick in and your adrenaline is pumping, it’s easy to get confused—unfortunately, when you’re not sure if you’re looking at a furnished one-bedroom apartment or a deadly weapon, you have to err on the side of caution,” said the Dallas police officer now accused of manslaughter for shooting a black man in his own residence, explaining that she reacted in self-defense when the man appeared to be in possession of a firearm that turned out to be a three-piece living room set. “You have to be careful. The door handle, the coffee table, the throw pillows—if any of those things had been guns, it would have been very risky. Everyone always says they’d do things differently, but you never really know until you’re in the heat of the moment, facing a huge array of home décor. I just had to follow my gut.” At press time, Guyger had reportedly received an outpouring of support from hundreds of other police officers who had previously confused unarmed black people for large human-shaped guns.
