Free speech...? Free expression...? In the U.S...? Think again...

it looks like resistance to the regime in power will have to go underground...

A San Diego County woman is suing her former employer, accusing her manager of firing her on the spot when she saw the woman's car had a bumper sticker advertising a progressive talk radio station.

The suit also alleges that, after seeing the sticker, the employer commented that the woman could be a member of al-Qaida.

[...]

According to Laroca's suit, the bumper sticker in question read only: "1360 Air America Progressive Talk Radio."

ooooooooo... we all know that air america is a known terrorist organization...
