This didn’t take long. From The American Vision Blog:
Our friends at The Patriot Depot just received a call from Rosemarie in Ball, Louisiana alerting Patriot Depot that her brother-in-law was stopped by small town Louisiana police and detained by the roadside for half an hour. A background check was conducted to determine whether he was a member of an “extremist” group. Why? Her brother-in-law (name not disclosed for privacy) had purchased and displayed a conservative “Don’t Tread on Me” bumper sticker on his car.
Oy. Don’t know if it’s true, or whether there might be a bit more of a story here… but if it is as put forward, sounds like the Louisiana police have some ‘splainin’ to do.

Death to Tyrants !
I fly the naval battle ensign (rattle snack, dont tread on me, and 13 red and white stripes) on my car and my house since we are at war. Maybe I will have to go with this one now.

Yeah, that’ll pretty much get you on the list…
I gave up on a security clearance years ago.
