"They were all riding 10-speeds and wearing black trenchcoats."

The headline suggests Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, but this description tells me it must be Keanu Reeves.

Some SUV owner will shoot one of these punks and be in a lot of trouble.

Nope. The industry has shifted to other propellants.

Hate crimes don't extend to the type of car you drive.

If you think "chevys suck", you are welcome to paint that on someone's car with no further charges (outside of the vandalism).

If you think "homosexuals suck" and paint in on the sidewalk in front of someone's home, you will face charges of being a "homophobe" hater and of public obscenity in addition to the charge of vandalism.

The former is also true of political beliefs (Bush voters in 2004 had swastikas painted on their homes by vandals). Obviously we still need to afford some groups protection under hate crimes legistlation. Oh wait, that was the desired goal to begin with, to establish protected groups of liberals (not the rights of all citizens).

Umm, damn... guess I'll have to come up with something else.

Ah, here we go. Yeah, what concerns me is whether they brought the cans of spray paint to a recycling center after they were done with them or just threw them away.

I'm not a big fan of SUVs (my wife has a Ford Escort) but this vandalism crap is totally BS. It'd be interesting if this were to happen to an SUV pistol owner sitting in his SUV when the incident took place.

Bang.

How long before these slimes start attacking people? They sound pretty violent to me. Of course if that starts happening they will have plenty of defenders.

30-40 creeps in black cycling gear riding deraileurs and tagging their hearts out over SUVs.

Ummm? Let's see? Do ya think the local cops might know who these guys are?

(Let the gal with the lost Yukon know that it was the best day in my life when my wife's Yukon ran away with the stable boy....$90 bucks a tank full is a lot to lose.)

"Five years ago this month, Jeff Luers set fire
to three SUVs at a dealership in Eugene, Ore.,
to protest America's heedless contributions to
global warming. He was promptly arrested and put
on trial for arson."

"Refusing to plea bargain, as his accomplice did,
and with a past record that includes 30 days in
jail for a scuffle with a U.S. Forest Service
agent, the then 22-year-old Luers was sentenced
to 22 years and 6 months in prison, the longest
sentence ever handed down in America for
environmentally motivated sabotage."

"The FBI estimates that in 2002, about 100 acts
of ecoterrorism, which the agency defines as
"the use or threatened use of violence of a
criminal nature against innocent victims or
property ... for environmental-political
reasons," are perpetrated each year. Though
these acts have included spectacular actions
such as the 1998 incineration of a ski lodge
in Colorado and a number of more recent SUV
torchings..."

"He says being in prison "sucks," but he has
no regrets about what he did because he believes
in a "higher law."..."

No, but if they vehicles need to be repainted, the painting industry typically uses isocyanate-based paints (although in CA, they may have moved to water based) while the OEM manufacturer used water based paint.

Plus, the rubber tires will now potentially end up in a landfill, and more petroleum products will now be consumed to manufacture the replacements.

Not to mention, auto insurance rates for everyone (including those who bought "fuel-efficient" vehicles) will go up due to the higher probability of vandalism.

So, as usual, leftists take it upon themselves to raise the costs for everyone else and do more harm as a result of their actions than good.

But its OK, because they're part of the "annointed", so the ends justify the means.

Another successful class project from "Activism 305"
maybe the local residents can tag the bike riders with their SUV's next time.
Then a nice spray painted outline on the ground.

Really folks, somebody paid for those cars, and it wasn't your parents.
