there aren't "trucknutz" on that vehicle.

Yeah, some overcompensation going on there.

And possibly some downright scary stupid or some kind of psychiatric disorder.

Which is exactly what that person wants. He's a scared person.

But, someone needs to tell him that his hitch is hanging too low. That's gotta drag on almost every driveway. Uff da!

and yet he's driving around in that vehicle what screams his fragile mental instability. This Coloradan is a white supremacist loser, and all who see this vehicle knows it.

Scholars Say White Supremacists Chanting 'Deus Vult' Got History Wrong: White supremacists using Crusaders' crosses and other medieval imagery on their homemade shields say the time period is an ideal of a white Europe. But medieval scholars say the white supremacists are wrong and the scholars are fighting back.



https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/ezagwm/get-to-know-the-memes-of-the-alt-right-and-never-miss-a-dog-whistle-again
Crusader iconography has long been tied to Islamophobia, so white supremacists didn't have to tweak much when they lifted this Latin battle cry from Pope Urban II's first crusade. Translating to "God wills it," deus vult reemerged, after nearly a millennium of hibernation, in a 2015 YouTube video of Christian Syrians bombing ISIS. Since then, alt-right message boards have glommed onto the words, using them as if they were a divine permission slip for wishing death on Muslims. Vandals even tagged the phrase on a mosque in Scotland in December.

Feb 2018

In the United States, the original Greek phrase and its English translation are often heard as a defense of the right to keep and bear arms. It began to appear on websites in the late 1990s and early 2000s.[5] In the Second Amendment or firearms freedom context, the phrase expresses the notion the person uttering the phrase is a strong believer in these ideals and will not surrender their firearms to anyone, especially to governmental authority.[6]

We do have some of these types, but mostly relegated to a few red counties -- mostly we're progressive here.

He doesn't seem like he would be a very friendly guy on first glance, huh?
