Yep...all that's left is activist judges ruling that hate speech is not protected by the Constitution and then Christians are jailed for using the Bible to condemn homos and gay marriage.

Will they have a separate toll for bicyclists and pederstrians? :)

Maybe we'll all get lucky and a gigantic sinkhole will swallow the whole f*cking city of Detroit. Of course libs (somebody on Rush's show last week called them lib-weenies, and I thought that was a bit much) would then want to raise taxes elsewhere to preserve the Detroit Sinkhole. :)

The tax is bad enough. What really sucks is the manner in which the funds are spent, i.e. wasted, on lazy-assed government employees. It's a vicious circle of greed and mediocrity.
