An article in yesterday’s WashPost talks about a 32 year old man who buys a Hummer and, because it’s too big to fit in his garage, leaves it outside. Five days later, it’s vandalized by enviro-nuts who smashed the windows, slit the tires, and scratched “FOR THE ENVIRON” into the body.
Vandalism is bad. Hummers are bad. I don’t feel bad. I respect a person’s right to live how they want to live as long as it doesn’t hurt other people. When a kid is suffering from smog-related asthma, don’t tell me it’s your right to drive a Hummer because you can. We all pay for your stupid Hummer, stupid.
There’s one thing I feel bad about this whole thing and that’s when he gets his tank fixed, it’s going to generate more waste. The glass, paint job, new tires… bummer. The other thing that has me concerned is where do you draw the line? Are people who drive Escalades next? What about a soccer-mom who uses her SUV as a veritable bus? Sometimes there’s a need. And fighting the Hummer using this guerrilla tactic just feels wrong. $10/gal gas might do the trick though. 
i saw that on washpost yesterday, too. for some reason, i kinda feel like something like that was gonna happen. still was surprised to hear that it did tho.
in either case, i don’t like extremism — on either side. but maybe that’s just me.
