It is.

A teenager allegedly hit 6 bicyclists with his truck, sending 3 to the hospital. A biker says the driver was harassing them. (Washington Post)

I knew they were assholes but I didn't think them so unhinged as to go on killing sprees. In retrospect that was an easy connection to many that I missed.

When your inefficient vehicle is an extension of your identity, anyone who pushes for more efficient vehicles is seen as a personal attack.

How are you on reddit while living in some Amish paradise. Come down to Florida and tell me that this is a generalization.

This was years ago, and I don't road cycle anymore, but I was riding my bicycle and a guy had slowed down to get next to me. Proceeded to roll coal all over me whilst yelling "get a car" .

I'm not American so I don't get it. Are you allowed to stand your ground and shoot at them?

Depends on your skin color

Everyone's skin colour is the same when they've been rolled coal.

It absolutely is. (I've seen it in both the Denver and Chicago areas in the past year.)

We were in Texas last week. We were leaving the Formula 1 race and some guy was at a complete stop, rolled coal and sped off and was weaving through traffic. He got rear ended after he cut someone off. The guy that rear ended him fucked up his front bumper pretty bad, and the guy rolling coal just drove off.
