Is your SUV killing innocent people?

[�io]

SUVs are in a peculiar position in the American psyche these days. They are at once very popular and also despised; popular for their room, power and safety, despised for their gas-guzzling, more-power-than-is-necessary appetite. Now a familiar political and social commentator has decided the best way to attack SUV drivers is to accuse them of aiding terrorism. It that fair? Watch the video report above.

God I hate Hippies.

The Baby Boomers are ruining this country.

Does that stupid bitch realize that weather or not you use 50 gallons of gass or 10 gallons of gass a week the money all goes to the same place?

So everyone that has ever bought gass at any point in there life is supporting Terroeism? Give me a break.

What about the fact that the United States imports the majority of it's Oil from South America? Are the poor starving citizens of Venesula terrorists now? They don't deserve to be paid for there natural resources?

In the words of Mr. Gump "Stupid is as Stupid does"

The only way my SUV is killing innocent people is when I drive up onto the sidewalk and run them over.

If I had a rocket launcher and 18 rockets, there would be 18 less SUVs on the road.

You can hate the hippies all you want, but the simple fact of the matter is that buying 10 gallons of gas uses less depletable resources than 50 gallons. Whether money goes to the same place or not isn't the issue, the issue is the amount of money.

SUVs are good for a lot of things. However, Urbanites and Suburbanites should quit fooking to themselves about who they are and get their asses back in the minivan.

Being an American means driving a Big Ass gass guzzeling Beast. If you want to drive an SUV then go for it.

Ahh yes, the root of all the world's animosity towards our country. We should all celebrate and embrace America's national persona as the fat pigs feasting blissfully on the rind of the earth.

And why shouldn't we?

This country was built on hard work.

Hard work pays off, and if I want that pay off to be a fat gass guzzeling SUV what's the problem? Am I really supposed to care what some Religous Fanatic with a towel on his head thinks about me?

Am I supposed to care what the lazy minority who sponges off my tax dollers thinks about my SUV?

Am I supposed to be concerned about some Green Peace Hippie who claims I am destroying the environment even though my SUV has fewer emmissions and better gass milage then their 1963 VW bus?

Explain to me again why I should care what the rest of the world thinks about me?


Let me tell you a little story about the Ghetto, SUV's, and Money.

There is a neighborhood in San Francisco called The Mission District. It is a poor area of the city mostly inhabited by illeagle aliens, dopers, and welfare recipiants. Durring the Dot Com boom many enterprising young people started bussiness in the Mission District because the rent was cheap there.

Those bussiness made money. Hired employees who spent money in the neighborhood. In a very short period of time the Mission went from being a run down area of town to not a bad place at all. The shops all had new paint. The dopers and gang bangers were gone, and the streets of the mission were safe.

Then a grass roots movement was started by residents of the area that didn't like Big SUV's owned by the Dot Com people taking up the limited parking in the area and they began to slash the tires of any and all SUV's in the area.

The Employees refused to work in an area where their cars were being vandalised, the bussiness left. Money stoped being spent there. The dopers and gang bangers returned to the street corners. The Mission is now a ghetto again.

More SUV's means that More Money is being spent not only on gass, but on other things as well. It is a sign of a better economy. More fuel efficent cars is a sign of a piss poor economy.

Say what you want but I'd rather live in a world full of SUV's then a ghetto.

Why don't they just find alternative power? Then we wouldn't need gas! ALT2RN1T3V2!!!!!! But really, this is just stupid. "I SUPPORT TERRORISM BEAUSE I USE 50 GALLONS OF OIL A WEEK BUT A GUY WHO USES 10 GALLONS OF OIL A WEEK ISN'T"..... this is just stupid.

Bleh I personally don't care. Let people drive what they want to drive. Although I have to admit that all the mom's needing a big SVU now a days is pretty pointless, to each their own. It'll be interesting to see how the new hybrids do in the market.
