Why do people find it necessary to put on their bumper that they're a veteran or college graduate?

[KostasKouvalis]

Do they want me to pull up next to them and thank/congratulate them?

He was likely too stupid to be admitted to Harvard, that's why he went to Fort Hood, but... it's pride in scholastic achievement at its highest level or in service to the United States, Canada or whatever their country.

[KostasKouvalis]

Or he just didn't care or find it important. For once I somewhat agree with you

[beefcakebradybatson]

Well, that's a start towards understanding the REAL world.

Why do people take offense at someone putting on their bumper that they're a veteran or college graduate?

[KostasKouvalis]

I'm not offended. It's just seems arrogant and boastful.
Like good for you? So? What am I supposed to do about it?

[Dargil]

Here's one.

[KostasKouvalis]

Now THAT'S a good one🤣

[CindyRuns]

I never did get it... there is absolutely nothing on my bumper !!!

[Gwendoline]

Or who they voted for. It's very American.

[KostasKouvalis]

They do it just to be an asshole and provoke people, then complain when someone tears out their sign or keys their car

[Gwendoline]

Tearing someone sticker off or keying their car makes you the asshole I'm afraid. You should let others have their beliefs.

[KostasKouvalis]

I agree with you, but at the same time I often hear about people displaying political signs in their yard, in a neighborhood that's predominately of the other party, then they're surprised their property gets vandalized. While I agree with you, that anyone who does that is an asshole and we should be respectful of other people's views, that's not how the world works unfortunately.
So personally, I wouldn't post political sign in my yard because I knew it would be inviting trouble. I feel some people just do it to be dicks and provocative. Like what's the benefit of announcing to the entire neighborhood who you're voting for?

They are either proud or it helps them get benefits or prevents road rages, although the college one is just cringy lol

validation. no different than posting something on social media
