overview for ZJBlank

This right here is a big part of why I wholeheartedly support the message of this community. There are way too many people behind the wheel who have no business there, are frightfully inept as drivers, but they’ll tell you that they need a car. And they’re probably right. But with more walkable and bikeable cities and better transit, that excuse evaporates, and a drivers licence can be a privilege, and not a necessity.

For what it’s worth, I like my car. I like driving my car. I also drive a truck for a living. But god damn, I’d drive my car a whole lot less if I had better alternatives. My commute is 15 minutes by car or 1.5 hours by bus. The bridge I have to cross on my way to work is car only, no bikes or pedestrians. Working days that can push 14 hours, another three hours of commute by transit is a no go, and I literally can’t bike to work. I like driving, but I don’t want to have to drive.

Dude, I drive tractor-trailer and still get blinded frequently, with my eyeballs like eight or nine fucking feet off the ground. It’s ridiculous. New Subarus are the worst offenders right now, their low beams are literally aimed up on like a 15 degree angle

I’m opposed to blanket gun bans, but I’m not sure I’d trust “The Gun Blog”as an unbiased provider of reliable information.

That said, the proposal that pissed me off the most was to ban all firearms that are capable of accepting a larger than five round magazine. You want to ban 10 round magazines, fine, I don’t need 10 rounds for my tikka. But banning my target rifle because ten rounders exist for it? Fuck right off.
