Too bad that wasn't diarrhea
Funny, you will always see the protesters staging their protests against big oil, but you will never see one give up their car for those same principals.
That is completely untrue. Don't make comments about things you don't understand.
In my community, many many people do not use a car for ethical reasons.
These are people who have valid driver's licenses, are financially able to afford a nice car, but don't because it's wrong to burn oil for personal transportation in a hulk of metal. These people are the future. You are the past, and your actions will be looked upon with disdain by our future.
I was in the middle of hi-fiving myself then I realized it wasn't real. Darn.
Yeah I bet each one of those azzholes drove there ..
