Could I be arrested if I made a bumper sticker out of this?

[BigBearJohn]

Police in Germany are hunting pranksters who have been sticking miniature flag portraits of US President George W. Bush into piles of dog poo in public parks. Josef Oettl, parks administrator for Bayreuth, said: "This has been going on for about a year now, and there must be 2,000 to 3,000 piles of excrement that have been claimed during that time."

The series of incidents was originally thought to be some sort of protest against the US-led invasion ofIraq. And then when it continued it was thought to be a protest against President George W. Bush's campaign for re-election. But it is still going on and the police say they are completely baffled as to who is to blame. "We have sent out extra patrols to try to catch whoever is doing this in the act," said police spokesman Reiner Kuechler. "But frankly, we don't know what we
would do if we caught them red handed." Legal experts say there is no law against using feces as a flag stand and the federal legal experts say there is no law against using feces as a flag stand and the federal constitution is vague on the issue.

[Fridays Child]

2. It should be a crime...

...to show that face in public.

[etherealtruth]

3. I'd like a sweat shirt n/t

[sarcasmo]

4. Depends on what part of the Country you are in.

North east and Western US no, Southern states, YES.

[Clark2008]

15. Why is the South always picked on here?

THe mid-west is redder than we are.

AND, I'd wear the shirt and not get arrested and I live in the South.

Geesch.

26. Awe sorry, but the Midwest is really purple soon to be bordering on BLUE

Especially since that moron Senator Thune (R-SD) could not protect Elsworth AFB from closure and the farmers are getting shafted.

Besides we live so far from each other (save for a few small cities) in the Midwest. As long as you get the cows milked and the chores done, the other folk don't tend to give a SHIT how you choose to express yourself. ;)

5. You have just insulted piles of dog shit everywhere. nt

[BigBearJohn]

6. Just think of how fast the parks would be cleaned up. No dog shit.

[SteppingRazor]

7. Go for it.

You can only be arrested if your creation can bbe perceived as a threat. Saying the president is a pile of shit, while both harsh and trenchant, can hardly be seen as threatening to harm or kill him.

8. No, but you might be in deep doo doo

(rim shot?) :rofl:

BTW, that is one BIG load of crap.

[BigBearJohn]

10. re: one big load of crap -- HOW APPROPRIATE, EH?

[lady lib]

18. So true. :)

20. Kick for the 5 o'clock folks

9. Make me one that says: Iraq: the lie that keeps on killing!

[NewWaveChick1981]

11. Nope, but...

...some conservative butthead would probably shoot your windows out and maybe even slash your tires. I'd LOVE a bumper sticker like that, but I don't want my car trashed. Maybe a t-shirt instead??? LOL

BTW, my dogs would gladly contribute to the "cause..." :)

[ElectroPrincess]

25. I would just like a Shit-load of those cute yellow flags ...

There's plenty of dog poo right off the trails around these parts. That would be so much fun, i.e., sicking those flags in all the dog poop you pass by on a nice long morning walk.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

12. The most pressing question here should be

Where can we order those flags??????

[BigBearJohn]

13. It is SUCH an EASY way to get the message out and help your parks!

17. You mean Germans don't have to clean up after their doggies?

Love the protest, but most places here you'd get busted not just for the * flag but for not cleaning up after your dog

[Mich Otter]

19. Who is going to make the T-shirts?

I'll buy a couple. I'd like two sweatshirts, too.

[Dr Fate]

21. I say we import this dandy idea to the States. n/t

Who says the Krauts dont have some good ideas?

[bvar22]

22. "Could I be arrested if I made a bumper sticker out of this?"

How are you gonna get the doggie poo to stick on your bumper?
:rofl:
