Seen this bumper sticker today?看到了这一点的小标语的今天？ What does it signify to you?这是什么标志吗？ That the person driving in front to you has felt it necessary, or at least in good taste, to publicly state that they support the US military.此人驾车在前面你认为有必要，或至少在良好的口味，公开表示，他们支持美国军队。
At least to the tune of purchasing a “Made in China” bumper sticker and pasting it on their car.至少在调整购买了“中国制造”的小标语贴在自己的车。 My guess is that by pasting this symbol on their vehicle, many people feel that they actually are doing something for their country via a show of solidarity.我的猜测是，通过这个符号贴在他们的车辆，许多人认为，他们实际上是做一些为他们的国家通过表现出的团结。 Well, it is a show, nothing more.好吧，这是一个节目，仅此而已。 Here’sa somewhat more reflective take on he “Support our Troops” topic that has been on my mind for as long as I can remember seeing these mindless and meaningless symbols .下面有点更多地反映在他采取“支持我们的军队”的主题一直在我心中，只要我还记得看到这些愚蠢的和毫无意义的符号。
