Cape Cod is that part of Massachusetts that sticks out into the Atlantic ocean like an upraised, bent arm. (Map here.) It is separated from the mainland by the Cape Cod Canal. Transit choices include boat, airplane and the (most popular) car. If taking the car, you'll have to cross the canal on either the Bourne Bridge or the Sagamore Bridge. Both are four-lane (two each direction) bridges with narrow lanes. Consequently, they are the choke points for traffic traveling on and off Cape, as we say.
This causes traffic back-ups that often extend 5-10 miles from the bridges as tourists and vacationers try to reach the beaches. It's a real pain in the ass. As a joke, someone printed up bogus Cape Cod Canal Tunnel permits that look like official access passes to a mythical tunnel under the canal. Those were funny, before the joke wore off (they're ubiquitous now; unfunny). The joke played on the tension and the angst from traffic delays and skewered tourists who might actually look for the tunnel that doesn't exist.
After 9/11 and the start of the Afghan War, someone printed up bogus Terrorist Hunting permits. Those were funny, too, before they were everywhere. The joke played on the tension and the angst in America and on our need and right to attack those who would attack us.
Now someone has printed up these Liberal Hunting licenses.
These are not funny.
Yes, politics can be funny. Yes, politics can be stressful. But nothing is funny about shooting your political opponent. That's what they do in the Stone Age mud states our enemies come from. It is not what we do here. We vote.
If you're the one who came up with the Liberal Hunting License, you should be ashamed.
not funny, freakin hilarious!

If the Liberals didn't try to destroy our freedoms and lead the country into socialism someone would not have thought of a liberal hunting license. If this is just im Massatushits maybe I sshould back up the CAR and drive up there. Although I don't know if I can afford that much ammunition....

What a great idea, thank you for letting so many others know that these exist and where to get them.
Response: You're welcome. Note that the "so many others" is relative. I really don't get that many eyeballs. I mean, I got yours and some of your other friends from wingnut land, but I'd be pleased if you festooned your F-150s and your Cavaliers with these stickers. That way, I'd know who to stay away from.

I want to know where I can find a Democrat hunting licence.
Carpundit replies: Why are you asking me? They're repulsive, and so is anyone who displays one.

So...you're saying you would shoot these people if you knew where they lived? Don't trip over your long skirt on the way over to their houses. If I had a dollar for everyone who cliamed to be a "vet"...

This is a fake. Everyone knows that when pests breed out of control, no hunting license is required. There's an infinite bag limit. Of course, you can't use leg hold traps, rifles, shotguns, pistols, bows or primitive firearms. You have to humanely trap them for proper disposal over in Europe. Relocation is the best medicine for this scourge.

Yes. Democrats ARE repulsive. Smartest thing that you've said all day.

A Democrat? well, Seattle's just crawling with them, but you need a permit... |)

Calm down. With all the free sex policies that govern liberal thinking, the population breeds out of control within a few years. If there was no season, the population boom of liberal moonbats would destroy the environment. Pretty soon, there'd be no Starbucks coffee, no quiche, and no more copies of The New Republic left. As a result, a carefully controlled harvesting season must be implemented to preserve the ecosystem.
Now, no one is advocating shooting anyone. That wouldn't be humane. Instead, the law mandates humane trapping methods to take the liberals alive and unharmed. Once they're captured and sedated, they're spayed / neutered, and carefully transported to a special sanctuary to live out their days in a safe, monitored environment. They're given medical care, good food and water, and shelter. A few are shipped to zoos and museums, but most are kept on sanctuaries in Cambridge, Berkeley and Chicago.

If only the 350 cities and towns could find the same political will. We can break the back of the police unions here, if people don't chicken out.
