Does anyone remember this "poster".

It was created by a well known C1 Corvette enthusiast.

I am sure it is not necessary to explain the meaning

My biology teacher/basketball and golf coach in HS kept one on the wall near the board in his class. This was the 80s though and he probably could never be able to do this in todays atmosphere of coddling students.

Controversial guy in school and sometimes got his hand slapped for this or that. Also one of my mentors.

Needless to say I have one in my garage.

I’ve never seen that before but I’d like to have enough copies of it to send to every politician.

A certain presidential address comes to mind, that's all I'll say to keep this thread from getting closed.

For those that have been around long enough to remember...

Dale Pearman had a bunch of these printed up. I got a couple from Dale's nephew yesterday.

Dale used to hang those things all over the place. One place that I recall Dale hanging one was at his swap meet space at Cypress Gardens, FL during one of the Florida NCRS meets.

Many of his customers laughed, but a few took offense.

Dale said that the ones that took offense he would prefer not doing business with.

Dale was a character.

Also, regarding the 1962 LeMans Corvette that Dale "re-discovered" and restored back to LeMans racing condition.

The car's last known location was in New York state, owned by someone in that area, and under the "care" of Kevin Mackay.

There used to be a "NBS Trucking" which used that logo. I believe they went out of business but they'll never be forgotten!
