A felony? So Idaho considers this right up there with assault and battery. Pretty silly.

I would've asked, "You had your truck neutered?"



I found what you said riveting.

A fucking FELONY? Are you shitting me? I wouldn't even be behind this being an infraction.

I LOVE truck nuts because they shout out loudly those whom I should stay away from. (I think they're fucking stupid, but seriously, a law against them?)


Agreed. Classless and stupid, but at least they serve to identify the morons. Definitely not something that the legislature should be bothering itself with.

As someone who has raised four kids in an area of the country with more than our share of hillbillies and trailer trash, I can tell you it's pretty easy.

"Daddy, what's that?"

"That, kids, is an idiot."

Yeah, I wish people had the decency not to display that stuff in public, or at all. But the fact is they don't, and truck nuts are just one small indicator of the bigger societal problem. Part of parenting is teaching my kids that just because somebody else is doing or saying something doesn't mean it's ok. On the scale of difficult conversations I have to have with my kids, "truck nuts" barely even registers.

It’s a fine line you walk when you try to police and enforce morality. How is being in favor of this law any different than having a liberal democrats morality forced down your throat? Would you like it if you were forced by law to acknowledge pronouns? For the record, people say and do stupid crap I do not agree with all the time, I don’t want laws banning or making it illegal. I think they’re tacky and classless but that doesn’t allow me the right to infringe on another person’s right to express themselves. I would place displaying them as protected under the first amendment. Your feelings do not trump another person’s rights. It’s pretty hypocritical to not see the irony of your thinking. Other than your feelings, the truck nuts will not hurt you. Idaho law makers should be ashamed of themselves for wasting time on such trivial matters.

A barometer of America's moral decline is in our entertainment media. The movie "Finest Hours" had four Coast Guardsmen headed into a potential suicide mission to find a stranded ship.

As they passed the point of no return, the actual Guardsmen sang, "Rock of Ages." An important statement.

But the pimps and whores in hollyweird changed it to some silly limerick song. Because, they're degenerates.

I read a comment concerning the Grammys. "If you look at the top sheet music for piano purchased going back to the 1800’s in America, you find that the top songs were all religious songs. “Nearer my God to thee,” “Amazing Grace,” and so forth down to today with rap music with its profane lyrics and simple beats, it’s a reflection of the downgrading of the founding stock. That’s the whole point- reward morons to squeeze out litters, import in millions of third-worlders and the national IQ crumbles from average 100 to the 80’s. You can control and manipulate people in that range with ease, as they need to be taken care of."

Back in the day, Doris Day was role model for America's girls. Then came Jane Fonda and whores went mainstream.

Stupid fucking legislators. You do not regulate taste with criminal law.

Do nothing, or do something useful, but don't clutter the law with useless, probably unconstitutional, bullshit(nuts).

"Daddy, what's that?"

"That, kids, is an idiot."

Idaho taxpayers paying to fight a losing 1st amendment lawsuit will be nice to watch.

Low class ? Yes . Has our civilisation gotten coarser ? Yes. There are a LOT of things I don’t like opinion-wise that actually hurt no one. but I really dislike my tax dollars being paid to enforce feelings at the point of a gun when it’s a losing case.

There are already too many unnecessary laws in "the land of the free." This is another one.

I am more of the opinion that this is blatant Govt. overreach, Next thing you know they'll ban portrayals of firearms and the Gadsden flag because they are "offensive" to certain groups. Maybe this has more to do with green dildos at basketball games than truck nuts.

I have no doubt that this ordinance will fall at the first challenge on free speech grounds.

And, while there are certain displays of naked breasts that may be unsightly, many of them are quite attractive.

Just think, if there are nuts on the hitch, there must be a prick behind the wheel.

Once you see one breast, you want to see them all!

Look closely, they appear to be 3-D printed. But I'd like to be there when the inspector sees your splice!
