Moral Quandry
So I have this crazy ethical debate every other day or so. On post, there is a guy who drives an SUV with two distinguishing additions: a Purple Heart license plate, and a big sticker that shows Calvin pissing on the Red Sox logo. My brain damaged self can’t deal with it. I want to jeer him and give him a Dorchester kiss for his disrespect of the 2004 WS Champs, but he is an injured combat veteran, which is cause for respect. What do I do?*
* This is all hypothetical, since I’d never verbally assault a soldier for their baseball leanings, nor throw a D-cell battery at their windshield.

isn’t having a calvin-pissing sticker kind of its own punishment?

what about a combination lock ?

TA makes a good point. It is sorta like the idea that hell is of one’s own making; the absence of a love for God causes one to live without God’s love in the afterlife. Having a Calvin sticker is kinda like that.
A combination lock is still a Dot kiss, so that is still hypothetical .

my dad always scoffed at purple heart license plates saying, “who the hell would advertise that they can’t duck?”
