Practice what you preach on your bumper sticker

Dear driver of the silver car with the COEXIST bumper sticker:

You really made me laugh out loud today. Not that your bumper sticker is terribly funny in and of itself. Well, actually, it kind of is. Never mind. What really took the humor to the next level, though, was the combination of bumper stickers on your car.

I mean, I can respect your wish to express a thought as deeply controversial as the desire to get along with others. After all, nobody else ever wants to get along with anybody, right? Sure takes guts to express support for a cause everyone around you is obviously dead set against. It must make you feel marvelously courageous and brave to advocate for such a universally despised concept. Go ahead, pat yourself on the back.

When you’re done with that, though, I think you absolutely should take your activism a step further. No, really! Instead of advocating tolerance, you definitely should consider practicing it. You could, seriously, right now, right here, on your vehicle, today! All you’d have to do to champion tolerance would be to remove the STOP FOX NEWS bumper sticker, which you so eloquently display slightly below your COEXIST sticker.
