Political AD in the Classified

[keslerkaiyu]

why is there an ad in the Classified for a bumper sticker that says "12 second cars for McCain"? Am I the only one that think this is very inappropriate for this DSM community. I don't care who you support but it doesn't need to be here.

Here, since alot of people are just responding without knowing what they are talking about.
I included the link; hope it works.

Yep, saw it a couple days ago and I chuckled. Not sure that John McCain cares a whole lot about 12 sec cars. Lmao

I was talking about the OP. Anyone who gets offended by a sticker like that needs to really calm down.

I'm not offended, I said it's inappropriate. Maybe we should all starting selling political buttons next.

Who cares? You're not rocking the sticker. He's not forcing you to buy it.

I should start making Obama center wheel caps and sell them here. The letter "O" would look much better in a circle and a stylish design can totally be brewed up.

I would never put a sticker on a paintjob and on a window--it just looks tacky, unless it's my DD.

Its related to cars, this is a car website, so its appropriate.

Selling buttons just for the sake of being political would not be appropriate.

Why is it that if something is even vaguely related to politics its automatically a taboo?

never mind, you guys are all obviously missing the point.

Not sure about this, its not in the "Forum" section although its in DSMtuners via the classified section.Personally I see nothing wrong with it , its not an outright political "discussion" just an ad for some merchandise.

Yes, I understand that but he's using the site to promote the candidate of his choice.
It's the message that hes' sending across. Don't look at the bumper sticker, look at the big picture.

What if its not his candidate of choice? The guy is just trying to make money and if people want to pay for the item then whats the problem? I think you are just being immature about the whole thing. But like I said, its car related, so why cant he sell this?

I mean hell, I dont even like McCain.

I'm being immature? Did you read the ad? After reading the ad, If you still say that is not his candidate of choice, then we will talk again. You're just rambling on without the facts.

 

[Booster-Shot]

Haha, I missed that best president part.

But yep. Still being immature about the whole thing.

 

[kahl23]

Eh, while the sticker itself doesn't bother me I think that there is much to be said for keeping this site entirely apolitical. We're brought here by our common love of cars, and whenever you start infusing politics into a discussion some people start getting crazy, I just think that it's a road DSMTuners would do well not to go down, not just for McCain but for any candidate. Just my .02

If it bothers you, report it. It would be much more effective than posting it on here and starting an argument. I agree with both sides, though this site is for CARS and not POLITICS. I personally think the person who made the sticker is wrong, McCain probably couldn't care less about 12 sec DSMs haha.

My intention was not to start an argument as you can see from my posts. And yes, it's been reported. And no, it doesn't bother me. As I originally said, "It's inappropriate" I couldn't care less who anyone support.

 

[BoostedinSoFla]

Eh, give the guy a break. I don't see how he's being immature.

 

[housegsx]

Sweet! Nice sticker.

 

[leet]

People will bi*** about damned near anything..

Is it shooting at you?



No?



Don't ####ing worry about it then.

 

[SpiralOut]

The ironic thing is... If McCain is elected there will be no more 12 second dsm's. They will all be home to the cockroaches and insects that survived the nuclear Holocaust of WW3.

 

[Defiant]

Just don't buy it if you don't want to. Save up for that $75K Eclipse.

I see nothing about the ad that's outside the Classifieds Rules.

Gibbons.
