My initial reaction to this image is just to laugh and not really take it seriously. It is obviously meant to be lighthearted and joking but it also poses opinions on serious issues in today’s political sphere. With three simple words, “Legalize gay marijuana,” this bumper sticker offers an opinion on both gay marriage and marijuana legalization. This message is meant to be somewhat satirical. This is done in order to point out the irony that while these are two very different issues, most people are on either one side or the other. Typical liberals feel that both recreational marijuana and gay marriage should be legalized, however typical conservatives feel that both of these things should remain illegal. The message of this bumper sticker is to point out that the government is restricting these two very prevalent activities and that while not everyone may feel too strongly about either of them, the government should at least listen to the concerns of the people. It also came across my mind however, that this might be a sarcastic bumper sticker posed by someone who does not agree with legalization of either of these things. It kind of implies the attitude that if we legalize gay marriage, we may as well legalize marijuana which are both completely ridiculous. Overall, though I think this sticker poses the more liberal opinion and shows support for both gay marriage and marijuana legalization. The fact that this sticker is kind of unclear probably shows that it is not the most effective logical argument. It does not really offer any logical appeal for either of the claims it makes and instead just shouts an opinion on multiple issues which may be confusing at first glance. Despite the fact that it is not too good at making an argument, this sticker does provide humor and I think that is the reason why it may be at least somewhat effective in bringing attention to the issues. People may not initially understand what is being stated here but at least it may make them rethink their opinions.
