"There are all kinds of safe vehicles between the extremes of a Geo and an SUV. In my estimation, the idea of large numbers of people driving vans and SUVs in traffic is endangering MY life and the lives of others by reducing visual range on the highways, i.e. by preventing other drivers including themselves from ever seeing further than the SUV two cars in front of them."

Don't blame me for your bad driving.

" Other than that, as I say, my sympathies are with the Bosnian Serbs and other innocent victims of this vast operation which sends oil here for SUVs, military aircraft to Riyhad and American bombers to bomb innocent Christians as part of the deal, and not with you."

Translation: It's the oil company's and Saudi's fault that Serbia got bombed, not the fact that there was a molesting bj receiving President.

" In fact you might want to try imagining how far you'd have gotten trying to explain your fundamental right to own a pigmobile to anybody during WW-II..."

All of the retirees in our state who can drive a large car or SUV and fought in WWII or Korea love them. Hell they are the top sellers down here in Florida. The only people driving the econodeathcars are the tree-hugging lunatics and the poor. Now run along junior, before everyone on this board rips you to shreds.

Gas was rationed during WWII to save rubber---not because there was any shortage of gasoline in the US.

If we have another war like WWII, and need to save rubber again, I might agree to a restriction on my freedom to own the vehicle that fits my needs. Until then, the Environmentalist Nazis can all take a flying leap.

Oh, and remember that while the "peons" were restricted from driving during WWII, the politicians got all the gasoline they wanted. Sort of like today's California crowd that is driven around in Limos but is also hell bent on taking away SUVs from the peons.
