Ever since 9-11 there have been these little ribbons affixed to, well, everything. Little yellow ribbons to "support our troops" started the craze, but then there were little American Flag ribbons (expressing Nationalism... I mean patriotism), little pink ribbons for breast cancer, little black ribbons for MIA-POW, and a thousand other colors, patterns, and causes.
It's insane.
For those of you who have no idea what these damn things look like -- here's an image.
The ribbons are obnoxious enough. But that's not enough for some people. The ribbon text is on a diagonal. Because some people need to be more annoying than the norm, they display the ribbon at an angle. This makes the text straight... and I guess easy to read. Unfortunately, my country has been taken over by right wing Conservative whack jobs.
Seizing upon the idea that you don't HAVE to display the ribbons vertically, the Christian nut jobs have begun displaying the ribbons sideways... so they resemble the little Jesus Fish.
I hate these. I hate them with the fiery vengeful passion of a thousand burning suns.

. and possibly despite what you think, religious conservative people aren't all that bad, just the insanely zealous ones, who are just as bad as their opposite end of the spectrum if you ask me
Huh? Are you just posting to see your name in print or is there some higher purpose to your writings? I don't think you really understand what I'm talking about here and, rather than just refrain from posting until you do, you're seizing on the one or two concepts you get and trying to argue about them.
