Why my next car won’t be made union made
Some U.S. Marines say they were surprised by the decision made by Detroit auto workers about parking. It all started with the cars some Marines drove, and what was on them.
The words that have some U.S. Marines in shock came from the man in charge of security at the UAW Solidarity House, on Jefferson in Detroit. For a number of years now, dozens of Marine reservists have been thankful to park in the UAW’s lot for weekend training with no problem at all - until now.
Marines at nearby Marine Corps Reserve Center say on Tuesday morning, the director of security at the UAW told them that while they support the troops, Marines driving foreign vehicles or sporting a President George Bush bumper sticker were no longer welcome to park there.
Be sure to read the rest. These guys should be ashamed of themselves.

Comments & Trackbacks
How open-minded, tolerant, and non-judgmental of them.
These guys should be ashamed of themselves.
They should be, but I seriously doubt they are.
I tried to trackback but it didn’t work.
Anyhow, this really ticks me off. thanks for posting it.
I am a reserve soldier. I already have a very long extended week in drill weekends, this wouldn’t help at all. :(
I linked this too and couldn’t trackback. Just so you know.
They shouldn’t be able to tell you what kind of car to drive or what kind of bumper sticker to have or anything like that.
Next thing you know you guys will have to use the same color toothbrush, same brand toothpaste and what kind of cereal bowl to eat out of.
This crap is just wrong
