Jerry,
I have seen some real offensive signs on cars. "Arabs Suck", "Holy War=Holy Sh*t", "Are your Turbins on too tight?"..these are just a few.

Don't get me wrong, either. I think it was obnoxious and totally intolerable as to what happened to us on September 11. But, we are getting a bit personal with accusations. Kind of like saying, "All American's are like Timothy McVeigh!"

I get a lot email from my website, and some is pretty bad because people think this is a religious/race thing, which is wrong. The one I got this morning really got me mad. I won't post it, but it went something to the effect that a Father was walking with his Son, 31 years into the future around NYC. The father explained that there use to be twin towers there, how many companies it had in it and how many people worked in it. He then commented, "It was destroyed by some bad ARABS."
The child then responded, "What are Arabs, Daddy?"

In essence, thinking it was a joke that we kill off an entire country.

My rant for the morning. It does get kind of sick out there. Beefcake? Wasn't there a Brutus Beefcake at one time?
