Possibly more disturbing than the Biden truck tailgate decal... [View all]

When I read the headlines I wanted to see what was up. So I googled.

Found out that it's common for retailers to sell these vinyl decals that adhere to a truck tailgate that fool people into thinking something is in the bed.

Some are funny.

Most are disgusting. There are dozens for sale that show women tied and gagged, some wearing sexy clothing, some with tussled hair... total rape and kidnapping connotation.

I won't link them but it's testament to the depraved state of mind SOME folks live with...

You see, the chance of anyone kidnapping POTUS is nil... but women are raped and or kidnapped daily. And this seems to either condone it or make it funny.

terrible.
