These are your low information Americans. And we have no shortage of them these days.

To me that is really the most unbelievable part of this story.

Yeah right, we need to unload all our old junk cars, if Turkey used car dealers want those cars, then by all means they are welcome to them.

That plumber's truck was hardly old or junk.

There are plenty of other countries to take our used vehicles.

Siding with Turkey now ? You hardly know their politics.

The lazy plumber didn't need the truck anymore, so it was old to him. It is funny that you guys are just realizing now. I don't see how this is "siding with Turkey," if the lazy plumber is too lazy to take off his own decal, that is his fault, not Turkey.

Lefties and their undying support for Radical Islam and anyone who supports them. What dangerous people we have living amongst us.

Totally overlook the fact that a perfectly good vehicle made it from Texas into the hands of ISIS.
Fixate on that "lazy plumber" instead ??

That sign shows proof that the terrorists CAN get what they want, when that want.
And the hypocrisy is that the US is supplying them.

Yes, it shows that terrorists can get a hold of used vehicles. Where did you think used vehicles go?

I think several months ago US was probing why ISIS uses Toyota trucks. What's the result? Maybe they found the source and did not want to talk about it anymore?

Well, the 'we love free markets' righties sure abandon anything they allegedly believe in to baselessly whine.

It's a crying shame they didn't whine as loudly over going to war spending American blood and taxpayer $$$ to bring a better life to the Iraqi Muslims, those people they tell us are the scourge of the earth, eh?
