Amusingly enough, one of them was on the back of the Massachusetts SUV hijacked by the baby-faced monster and his boxer brother in which they would later shoot it out with the police. Shocker. You mean the Jihadis weren’t interested in sparing an obvious person-of-appeasement?
Nope. Your Coexist sticker is not an avoid-the-Jihadi guarantee. On the contrary, I bet they picked out the vehicle when they saw the sticker. A useful idiot, they may have thought or said to themselves, one of those dupes who believes in moderate Muslims. He surely won’t be armed and he’ll surrender his car without a fuss. And sure enough.
Not that they would have minded killing him. They killed the MIT security guard, after all, apparently for his gun. Didn’t have time for a background check. Sorry, Barry. But all that blood on the driver’s side seat makes for a sticky experience. Much easier to have the keys handed to you before the leftist owner (who else would have one of those stickers?) swoons with pleasure at having been approached by an actual, you know, Muslim.
UPDATE: The Powerline bloggers think the report of the sticker on the hijacked SUV was a conservative or libertarian prank, but they like Mark Steyn’s take: “…if it weren’t for that Islamic crescent [the letter C on the sticker] you wouldn’t need a bumper sticker at all.”
