Bumper stickers

I don't have bumper stickers on my car. I don't want to offend people that might perhaps become my friends. 
Have a sticker complaining about other drivers? That'll be the day that you run a red light or rearend a fellow traveler. 
Pro-life, pro-choice, Republican, Democratic, redneck? As soon as you label yourself, you become associated with every extremists that is giving your cause a bad name. 
While driving recently I experienced someone misreading a bumper sticker. They read, "I love ME," then commented, "Boy, that person is pretty self centered."
 My reply, "I think it means I love Maine." It did, we laughed, and that's why I don't have bumper stickers on my car.
