How can you love Automobiles, knowing they kill so many: Vanity
today | self

Posted on 08/30/2016 10:25:09 AM PDT by BornToBeAmerican

Seems to me that the bill-boards I see state how many 1,000's of people have died so far on Texan roads. Yet to see a bill-board warning about how many deaths coursed by guns.

Bottom line, I am more concerned about the nut behind the wheel of car than I am about a finger on a finger. Truthfully, I know no one who has been shot but plenty who have been either killed or maimed in automobile accidents.

Natural causes probably kill more people than anything.

Damn you nature!

If we can save JUST ONE CHILD from getting ran over by an Illegal Alien who is drunk driving in a death machine called an automobile, why are we not deporting all of them?

My car sneaks out of the garage every night by itself looking for someone to run over. /s

Some Americans were practically BORN in a car.
More were CONCEIVED in one!

========================================

SO TRUE. :o)

Medical malpractice kills more people than are murdered by guns each year.
Time to get rid of all the doctors!

Not sure if that's true. Doctors HERE are regulated beyond all things. Now, if one first goes to a curandero or does some self-medicating, then they might have done some self-killing already (also drug addicts, alcoholics, etc.).

Some things, like a cold, HAVE no cure and one simply has to allow the cold germs to live out their life and die.

Some illnesses have no cure and one must simply deal with the pain: lung and pancreatic cancer.

Finally, one MUST eventually die as the heart muscle, as wonderful as it is, does have a life span. The heart WILL just stop one day.

Did you miss the ‘Vanity’ clause.

Remember this: Liberty was never won by sitting tight lipped. Liberty comes at great cost, but never as much as the cost of losing it.

The hypocrisy of the gun debate vs debates on everything mentioned is laughable, yet who is laughing and that my friend is all of our problem.

Despite the best efforts of the un, death rate remains at an unacceptable 100% world wide with no cure in sight. 😳

You’d think differently if you had two large, loving dogs who desperately needed at least two ten mile car rides a day.

“Being an automotive restoration specialist for over forty years, I can say the thing I love about automobiles is the unbridled freedom they give to us to travel and observe our right to free association and trade under the constitution. It’s one of the ultimate freedoms to live our lives as we choose.”

Well said. Think I’ll keep that one.

“Plus, it’s a lot of fun driving a nice personalized automobile that I own myself.”

Oh, happy man.

The Great Dane is sleeping on the couch and the Pitador is sleeping beside me. Time to get us up for our evening car ride. They are NOT spoiled dogs.

I love Danes. I’ve never heard of a Pitador.
