"You don't, and you have a good reason to be exempt. No problem here with trucks for legitimate work purposes. If you need your toolbox, you need your toolbox. It's one thing thing for Joe Rancher who needs a truck to pull bales and make a living, it's another thing for a suburban mom to drive her kid to practice in an Excursion because it makes her feel like a supertanker captain. There is a difference."
"From each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs." - Vladimir Lenin
You've just articulated Communism, albeit in a modern, California sense. The problem with that view, however, is that it is inemical to freedom. It is the antithesis of America.
Of course, that's what every Leftist wants for the U.S. They want special priviledges to be doled out to those who have special needs, and they want to be the ones doing the doling out.
Forget freedom. The government will decide for you what you will do and how you will do it. Right, comrade?!
Sheesh. Our schools really have been dumbed down for Joe Sixpacks to be spouting such socialistic nonsense. You did claim to be Joe Average, didn't you (I mean, you wouldn't be some "plant" from DU)??
"From each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs." - Vladimir Lenin As long as we're using Lenin quotes wildly out of context, let's go with:
"One man with a gun can control 100 without one."
- Vladimir Ilyich Lenin

It's spelled inimical, which under a common definition means "an unfriendly act of aggression". Driving a huge, gas-hogging SUV in urban areas of a state with 33+ million people is inimical to common sense, good visibility in dense, fast-moving traffic, and clean air. Inimical. I-N-I-M-I-C-A-L.
They want special priviledges...
That's spelled privileges.
Forget freedom. The government will decide for you what you will do and how you will do it. Right, comrade?!
You think I'm an apologist for statism, do you? Wrong. Speak for yourself, comrade.
Sheesh. Our schools really have been dumbed down for Joe Sixpacks to be spouting such socialistic nonsense. You did claim to be Joe Average, didn't you
Not only didn't claim to be Joe Average, but point out who has suffered the brunt of said dumbing down.
I mean, you wouldn't be some "plant" from DU.
Nah. You wouldn't be Bob Boudelang, would you?
One other thing, related to the general theme of pollution of the commons. Dispense with your 8K "bull in the china shop" vanity logo and quit wasting bandwidth and time for hundreds of others.
