In case you thought California had become as insane as it was possible to be ...

[lormand]

California - Finally a State Louisiana can make fun of

[cripplecreek]

And I’m sure they’ll want to impose this on other states as well.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

Can’t we just use one of those big, red umbrellas like in the commercial?

[BipolarBob]

Racism.

[the anti-liberal]

I love my black cars.

If I wanted to drive off the lot in a new car and they didn't have black, I'd say "bye, bye."

[BipolarBob]

Okay colorism.

[TurtleUp]

Regulating paint colors is only half the job. They need to mandate proper tire inflation too - the cornerstone of Obama’s energy policy!

[coydog]

Aftermarket painters will be making out like bandits.

[Mojave]

Will we be allowed to drive black cars in the winter to the energy used to heat them>

[MrB]

Watch, some study will be done that shows that some minority group buys black cars more than white people,

and they’ll withdraw the mandate.

This was done with the menthol cigarette tax.

I'm guessing they've already got the threat letters ready to go out to those folks. People might have to get their cars painted in Arizona or Nevada.

I'm down with that, Bro.

[Yossarian]

Black cars banned?

[reagan_fanatic]

Just think of all the water California could save if they declared flush toilets illegal and forced everyone to poop in the dirt.

Black cars make Mother Nature Cry *ping!*

[Leo Farnsworth]

I have stated it before:

Auto manufacturers should stop selling cars to California until California abides by US regulations.

Three months without any new vehicles would end the socialism in CA.

[Lurker]

It occurs to me that at some point a rather substantial number of these bureaucrats are going to be dragged out into the streets and beaten to within an inch of their useless lives over crap like this.

And while ordinarily I abhor the initiation of violence in these cases I'm going to really, really enjoy watching it.

My wife and I left the San Francisco Bay Area for Florida a little over six years ago. I am reminded on an almost daily basis what a good decision that was...
