6. I have mine on my Trooper in NC for over a year
I am proud of it, it's faded now and lost it's color. But I have got two more and I am ready to replace it.

7. I am looking forward to the day when I spot one on another vehicle!
Don't be alarmed if an old lady begins waving her arms wildly and honking at you!

11. One time at band camp...
or maybe it was at the store. Someone left a note on my car, because they were familiar with DU! It was a nice note, and it made my day!

Honk and wave away!!! I hope that our stickers will inspire curiosity and our numbers will grow!

48. Was that you?
Wow!
LOL

I was driving through ronnieland (where madrchschod lives) couple of months ago, when someone started honking and waving. I was pretty sure it was another DUer, who saw the sticker.

I did not get a good look, but it was a woman in the car.

to DU and be enlightened just a little, it's well worth it.

19. Where do you get them?
Good vinyl ones? Has a DU bumper sticker ever broken 12s in the quarter? Something to shoot for maybe (if I can work out the carb)? Seriously, where do I get one?

21. I do!
:hi:

In the red state of Mississippi, along with my bumper sticker that reads "Don't blame me, I voted Blue" and my K/E sticker and the bumper sticker "Who would Jesus Bomb".

Funny thing, before this election, I NEVER, EVER put a bumper sticker on any vehicle I ever owned. But now, yeah, they are gonna know that I am proud to be a liberal!

24. I did.
Unfortunately I went bankrupt later and the truck got repo'd.

Someone in So Cal is driving around a nice Toyota PU with a DU sticker on the bumper....Also an Amnesty International sticker....so that's a silver lining of sorts.

Or they had to scrape them off with their cold dead hands..

:evilgrin:

26. I'm still waiting for mine
But it will go on the instant I get it. I work on a college campus and I've told several students and faculty about DU since last Nov. They all now visit here and we discuss the things we learn here at work. My bumper is very visible since I park about 20 yards directly across from the smoking area. As soon as I get mine I will remove my Feingold sticker and put the DU sticker in its place. It will reside right next to my Kerry/Edwards sticker and my "Republicans for Voldemort" sticker, which (some of) the students love!

32. MEEE!!!
I drive around with my DU bumper sticker all over the Dallas/Ft. Worth area!

TAKE THAT FREEPERS!!!

I have no idea how many people have checked out DU because of my sticker, but I know of about 17 people I have personally told about DU who have come here. Some are lurking, some have registered and post.

36. The very first DU sticker I got
Edited on Fri Jan-28-05 01:27 AM by temperancedissent
3 (+ or -) years ago went on the same day I got it. Right in the middle of the rear bumper. ;-) ha ha EAT IT WINGERS :evilgrin:

I've driven all over between Iowa/Mn., to Southern California and no major problems due to the DU sticker, Bartcop stickers or the 5 or 6 various other anti-bush/anti-war stickers I have adorned my bumper and rear window with. Looks maybe:eyes: a couple times flipped off as they zoom by and I just smile and nod as they do:-) But I've had many more possitive responses from people that confess they have been to frightened to put any kind of sticker on their car but they're glad to see someone that does. That's when you encourage them to check out DU:D

(edit spelling errors)

42. Right now it's on my bulletin board, next to the computer.
As soon as I get off my lazy a$$ and go clean the bumper of the car and remove the old stickers that are wearing out, I'll put it on. How about tomorrow? Sounds like a plan to me. Thanks for the motivation! :)

Anything to irk the repuke neighbors. ;)
