In traffic this morning on my way to work, I saw a bumper sticker that read, "Contractor: Because BADASS isn't an official job title" and for some reason, there was a picture of a hand grenade on either side of the sentence. It was, of course, affixed to a huge three ton truck. Just the sheer aggressiveness of the sticker made me laugh, but it really was the entire package of arbitrary and stereotypical hostility that one would associate with a huge truck driving, goatee sporting male.
I'm also reminded of the time, in late 2001, in the heat of the post-9/11 hysteria when terrorism was the target of a lot of propaganda and passionate displays of over-the-top "patriotism" was very much accepted, if not outright expected. I don't remember where I was, but I was living in Reno at the time. In any case, I saw a bumper sticker that was a very plain white background with block black text and it simply said, "ABORTION IS THE REAL TERRORISM." I didn't have a smartphone at the time, otherwise I would definitely have taken a picture, because man, that is just comedy gold.

Saw a big three ton truck on the 405 in five o`clock traffic yesterday and it had quite possibly the greatest bumper sticker I've ever seen. Simple white block decal letters on the back window of the cab that simply said, "BIG TRUCK LITTLE PENIS"

Murphy's Law of Bumper Stickers: The more offensive you find one or more bumper stickers on the car in front of you, the longer you will be stuck behind that car.
Not a bumper sticker, but

I saw one that said “Eat A Dick” using the religious-symbols-shaped-like-letters that usually say “Coexist” and it made me cackle.

there's someone who is known around town for having an I EAT ASS bumper sticker, and yet weirdly he wasn't the Florida Man arrested for having it (that guy drives a truck, this guy drives a red sports car)
