An intrepid colleague snapped the nearby photo from just outside Ricochet's Southern Command in Los Angeles.
"Turn Left at Next Election."
The position of the parked scooter's handlebars suggests a more edifying political metaphor: once you've turned as far left as you can go, the vehicle stops -- then you're stuck.

Re: Another Maverick
Leftist liberals would counter that our country still has a lot of leeway before reaching that end point. Or they would say that a quarter turn is all that will ever be asked for — then ask for more once opponents concede the quarter turn to keep peace or make nice. Moral: never believe a leftist liberal who insists that the current demand is the last demand, and never concede a position that is tactically or strategically (or morally or ethically or politically…) important without understanding what you're giving up and how to live without it.
