    Not so sure I would be proud of being politically incorrect Charlie....

    I hate the terms "politically correct" and "politically correct." I'm honestly "just Charlie."

    My hatred for Kim Jong Un and his regime knows no bounds though...

    Though if being upset that they stopped showing reruns of The Dukes of Hazzard just because of the confederate flag on the roof of the car makes me "politically incorrect," then so be it!

    Do you know why the terms politically incorrect/correct were brought about?

    @Iamraiderpower

    I really only put that magnet on the back of the truck just for a photo op, and then drove 10 minutes to work today to see if anybody reacted. I then removed the magnet...

    Couple observations....

    You are seeking to get a response from someone, which in turn could have negative consequences for you if you came across the wrong person, yes?

    Exactly where does your Asian boss come from? Where does her family come from?

    South Korea, and she's the reason I took it off the truck in the first place...

    She explained that other Asians might not be as understanding as her about it, and also that "pretty much everyone on earth hates Kim Jong Un, so there's no point in putting an insulting bumper magnet on your vehicle."

    Boss was born in Seoul, South Korea on a U.S. Air Force Base, to an American father and South Korean mother. Parents divorced shortly after her birth and she left South Korea with her dad at the age of one. Her dad remarried to an American woman he met in the Air Force in Guam...

    Boss has never been back to Korea and does not speak one word of Korean, but I get where she's coming from...

    Albeit majority of people have a great dislike for him, not all do. So when doing what you do, remember it could bite you in the ass. This is not being politically incorrect/correct, it is taking an uncalculated risk.

    So, be aware of your want to be PIC, for it could turn around and bite you square on the ass.

    Doesn't matter how it looks as long as it's safe!

    My friend Dave's philosophy (when it comes to trucks, anyway) is "A beater with a heater!"

    In Pennsylvania heat is more important than A/C...

    In Texas, I agree with you that it's definitely the other way around!

    No one is saying for you not to be Charlie, just merely stating that while you are being Charlie, making a decision that is against sociatal norms, will and can land you in a hot spot. I know you disagree with a lot of what sociatal norms are given your history, but they still are norms and a lot of people will disagree with you if you go against them in some fashions and will let you know in a not so kind way.
