Just stay out of the way of us drivers who are not yet octogenarians. |

Vicious Deplorable dollop You ain't seen nothing yet! User ID: 74709896 United States 04/29/2017 11:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I heard this morming on NPR. If this goes thru, gas rationing will be next! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 441555 Thank God the nightmare and reign of terror from Obama and Hillary are now in the past and we are beginning to recover. Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running. Used by the Founders... Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives” reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel Oh' What the Hell, do I look like I want to die in some nursing home one day... America must have 4 new Constitutional Amendments... 1. Drug Tests and Mental Evaluations on all politicians and judges randomly five times per year. 2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges. 3. Mental and health standards for Supreme Court Justices and retirement age set. 4. A 'Star Chamber' of elected Natural Born Citizens (no attorney's) to ivestigate, try, and prosecute the politicians and government employee's as they see fit. Mandatory death penalty by public hanging is the merciful sentence for pedos and their associates. Democrats are a WMD, literally. Let Justice Be Done Though The Heavens Fall. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 74769954 United States 04/30/2017 01:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You can only focus effectively on driving for so many hours a day. After that you're a menace. It really doesn't affect focus how fast you drive, so what I'm saying is that you've cut a person's productivity by 1/3 when going from 75 down to 55. We tried it and it was an unmitigated disaster. When the speed limit on western interstates was raised from 55 to 75, the death and crash rates dropped significantly. |

I lived through the bullshit years of a national double nickel limit and it took forever to get anywhere. Warner is so Jimmy Carter. Last Edited by Copperhead on 04/30/2017 01:14 AM |

It could prevent the need for rationing. I'm ok with it... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 460456 You guys need to look at the history behind this. We have been there done that before. If you all want a 55 mph speed limit in your state, then pass a fucking state law. Stay the hell out of Texas traffic. National speed limit! PFT!! There is no need for rationing, because we don't have a shortage of oil or gasoline. If you really want to save lives, learn how to drive, stop consuming alcohol before getting behind the wheel and stay the hell off your G.D cellphones while you're driving. Bunch of damn control freaks! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 72246974 United States 04/30/2017 01:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Screw that, I was driving when that stupid crap was around. Try taking a long trip and it will drive you to utter insanity. Gas is a commodity, it is none of the federal government's business regarding how much of it I use. If we run out of gasoline, the free market will step in and come up with an alternative solution. Furthermore, there should be no speed limit whatsoever on our Interstate system. If you feel like driving at 150 MPH, then have at it 'hass. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 441555 Why? Is there a shortage of oil and gasoline? WTF? He sounds like a fucking idiot.

Pilgrim001 User ID: 74570412 United States 04/30/2017 02:05 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What an incredible number of just plain ignorant posters on this thread. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 331370 Why don't you think of driving 55mph as a way that the average citizen can actually DO something patriotic. Much more effective than wearing a lapel pin BTW. "I can't drive 55" sounds like Cheney saying the "American way of life is not negotiable". Except it has to be. If you want to waste gas send your son/daughter to Iraq to fight for it. Otherwise STFU. We don't have to fight for oil. Just buy it on the open fucking market at the prevailing price. YOU drive 55 and leave me the fuck alone. DO NOT drive 55 in the left lane. I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you. Slake Blake |
