Man Arrested For Displaying The Words “I Eat Ass” On His Vehicle

[The Professor]

In the sleepy town of Lake City, Florida, where I live a First Amendment battle is brewing over the public display of the word “ass”.

“A Florida man is claiming his First Amendment rights were violated after he was arrested Sunday for sporting an "I Eat Ass" sticker on his truck, which is apparently a violation of the state's obscenity law.”

Florida man arrested for having an 'I Eat Ass' sticker on truck says his rights were violated

I think that anyone who is offended by the word “ass” is a pompous pantywaist who has lived a far too sheltered life. The word permeates our national discourse and flourishes within our entertainment industry.

There are many Bible references to the word “ass”. For example, Christ came triumphantly into Jerusalem riding on an ass. (Matthew 21: 1-5) and Samson killed 1,000 men with the jawbone of an ass (Judges 15:16).

I remember another case a few decades or so ago where a man was denied a personalized license plate with the word HOOKER. The state said the word was offensive even though the man's last name was Hooker. Fortunately, the man eventually prevailed.

As a parting gift to all the fine folks at USMB, I offer one of my favorite poems:

The was a young lady from Crass
Who had a magnificent ass.
Not rounded and pink
As you probably think;
It was gray, had long ears and ate grass.

My old Papa (rip 1897-1991) would always say that gal over there had an ass like a forty dollar mule...Hee-haw!

But in Florida you have a very weird state that acts like a member of the Bible Belt while being a sleazy biker...

And he’s going to win in court.

And be able file a civil suit against the police department. If I were him, this would be done at the federal level, to take it out of the states hands.

What, a warning wasn't enough? A ticket wasn't enough? Need more people in your jail, eh?
Maybe no one has realized it yet, but the word ass is commonly spoken in prime time sitcoms that children watch for many years.
California has even just passed a law that they now teach about asses to Kindergartners. Boy asses, girl asses and all the little asses in between.

LMFAO! Thank you!

"Parting gift?" Where you headed, or are you just sayin'?

 

[airplanemechanic]

Yep. The lawsuit on the back side of this should buy him all the ass he wants.

I displayed "I eat ass" on my Christian Mingles profile...

It's not protected speech.

The 1st Amendment was only intended to protect POLITICAL/RELIGIOUS criticism of authorities, not your right to be pornographic in public.

This stuff makes a mockery of the Constitution

Promoting sodomy?

He should find a donkey, shoot it, cut it's head off and throw it on the judges bench.
Ask him if he prefers chops or ribs.

My grandma whooped people who said "ass." Even if they didn't know what it was at the age of 3.

 

[Geaux4it]

This sounds like a stinky situation

What does "I eat ass" even mean? I can see a child say "what does I eat ass mean." Adults aren't the only ones to see this. I would not waste calling the cops on him, but I wouldn't want anything or anyone to do with someone who thinks this OK.

So what they're saying is, "asses are protected classes?"

Even though I am not a fan of swearing and vulgarity, I have to agree. They made it sound like what the man is guilty of is the worst thing that anyone can be guilty of. Words are as far as the guy went. Would you rather him be guilty of an illegal action?

God bless you and him always!!!

P.S. I wonder what the man drinks.

I bet his favorite porn video is "2 girls one cup."

Over at my previous house on the next street over there was a parcel that kept horses and mules. When walking my dog I always got a kick seeing their horse trailer with the Haulin' Ass bumper sticker.
