What Your Friendly Neighborhood Leftists Are Really Like

July 18th, 2007 Posted By Pat Dollard.

On a narrow, leafy street in Northwest Washington, where Prius hybrid cars and Volvos are the norm, one man bought a flashy gray Hummer that was too massive to fit in his garage.

So he parked the seven-foot-tall behemoth on the street in front of his house and smiled politely when his eco-friendly neighbors looked on in disapproval at his “dream car.”

It lasted five days on the street before two masked men took a bat to every window, a knife to each 38-inch tire and scratched into the body: “FOR THE ENVIRON.”

    This act of enviro-fascism is what Teddy Roosevelt would describe as “To educate a man in mind and not morals is to creat a menace to society”. Liberals are all heart and no head, someone doesn’t tow the line to your liking then they will scream, sneer, and in this case lash out in a tantrum with baseball bats.

    I thought the 2nd biggest crime in all of this was the guy put all this money in making this truck look tough and it wouldn’t see a day of true off-roading other than riding a dusty trail at 5 mph.

  2. mindy abraham

    While I am not a fan of hummers, destroying someone else’s car would never cross my mind. What someone does with his own money is his own business. Try to persuade people, not attack them. :mad:

  3. Jennie Taliaferro

    This is definitely a step up (or is it down?) for them from keying cars that have “Bush 2004″ stickers on them.

  4. Blogengeezer

    Pat, I offer this perfect example of where this mentality originates, then is cultured to perfection in the ‘Academy’. John Stossel presents this 40 minute segment. Yours truly, daflikkers over at blogspot

  5. Kipp

    Anyone who would do that to someone else’s property is not a true liberal.

  6. D. Cooper

    I’m kinda glad to see this happening. It’s sad that a nice vehicle like that got destroyed, and I feel sorry for the owner….BUT……maybe this will cause him to think twice about his liberal neighbors and maybe turn him into a conservative. Hell of a way to have to wake up tho!

    Then, again…..probably not! He’ll turn it in to his insurance co. and go buy a Prius.
    Once a dumbass lib….always a dumbass lib!

  7. Kevin M

    All heart? Hardly. They’re all ass!

  8. Chuck

    Should have uparmoured.

  9. Dr D Semper FI

    The new Nazis, whats next, smokers, BBQer’s,watering the Law? I enjoy gas hogs, I really want a Ferrari or Viper, and i like to drive around just for the Hell of it before some facist government agency tells me I can’t.Save America, Shoot a Liberal!

    To be blunt, what the fuck do you care what he does with his truck, he has to confirm to your standards? what the hell, you sound like the shits that tore his car up.

  11. Lamplighter

    And you thought it was a free country…my flaming liberal hair cutter and I comiserate because she catches all kinds of grief from eco-Nazi’s about her ciagrette smoking and her Hummer. Why don’t “environmentalists” think of this: maybe if they had allowed some domestic oil drilling, nuclear power and refineries to be built in the past 30-odd years, we wouldn’t have to be involved in the Mid-East to the extent we are…

  12. Robert

    If you like irony, google up American Princess’s article from a while back on the Prius vs. the Hummer. The Prius is actually quite a bit worse on the environment. Not that you can convince a retarded “environmentalist” of that fact.

  13. Bob USMC

    And I thought that liberals were supposed to be tolerant????
    What a joke that is. It’s just more proto-typical liberal hypocrisy.

  14. patriot

    This makes me wanna park either a Bradley or an Abrams in that neighborhood. Hummer’s 14mpg? Try my M1A2’s 2gpm. Oh, and it said something about smug looks:

    All hail to the mighty South Park!

  15. lrltx

    Anarchy. No less. Witnesses but no call to 911.Baseball bats make a lot of noise in the quiet of 3:00 am. Are the citizens in that neighborhood so narrow minded a crime can be committed with their knowledge and they support it; until their rights are violated. Disgusted in Texas.

  16. Marc

    Hey Steve, in response “To be blunt, what the fuck do you care what he does with his truck, he has to confirm to your standards? what the hell, you sound like the shits that tore his car up.” Step away from the ledge big guy don’t jump!

    My second comment was one of sarcasm and by a person who enjoys four wheeling in my off time. I do not condone nor would I vandalize someone’s personal property.

    Kristallnacht …

  19. drillanwr

    My advice to the kid … Either fix or purchase another Humvee and park it in the same place … This time tape onto the vehicle windows “used” paper targets from the shooting range … with the heads and chests of the silhouettes all shot out. Be sure to carry your shot gun and/or rifle to and from the vehicle whenever you’re coming or going. Oh, a close circuit camera and motion detector lighting aimed at the vehicle would be a good idea … but only if you also have a hidden speaker system hooked up outside to loudly play a recording of a few rounds fired off, followed by “The next one is going in your fucking ass!”

    Hey, just an idea …

  20. Dan B.

    Bet that hit close to home Pat……..what would pat do if a liberal tree hugger did that to his ride……lol

  21. MarineDoc

    Patriot - to damn funny. Good dig on the Southpark!!

    I live in a little bit more rural area here in NC. I would use the Hummer for bait and bring back the days of rocksalt with my shotgun.

    On a serious note, I am tired of only liberals having rights an us law abiding conservatives not having any (or so it seems).

  22. France the retour

    hummers are ugly ; with a bit of psychological sense this guy would have avoid his trouble ; if he wanted to create a business with the car part of his “show-window” business, Colombo’s car would have been a better image to memorise his name ;
    I bet any old french car in his neibourhood would have been fine :lol:

  23. Squire

    The attitude of moral relevance is astounding. Why can’t we round up these environmental types and drop them into Al Qaeda or Taliban neigborhoods for an over-nighter?

    It’s all petty.

  24. A. S. Wise- VA

    Even better South Park link:
    http://allabout-sp.net/

    Pat, I hope this doesn’t happen to your Hummer. We had three ELF members arrested around here in 2003- all former alumni of my high school. These mutha fuckas destroyed construction equipment, slashed tires, and vandalized SUVs, in the name of the “environment”.

  25. HL Mencken

    Ahhh yes, the 21st century “progressive” mantra:

    “Laws for thee, not for ME.”

  26. Frozen Tex

    Did the vandals stop to consider all the resources that will be used in the repairing of the damage they caused? Probably not…

  27. danielle

    I feel bad for the guy but his car looks a bit ugly.

  28. the_right_reverend

    i am like kind of umemployed at this moment!!!! could he use a sniper for security?????

  29. Tom

    If only we could convince liberals that Al Queda is a threat to the spotted owl, maybe we’d have pacified Al Anbar a while ago. Of course, these eco-gangstas are quite brave against a parked Humvee. I am personally glad I am not a parked Humvee. On this day, being a parked Humvee all alone on a street of Prius (Is Pri-i the plural of Prius? Or is it Priuses?) is a terrifying state of affairs. Woe to such Humvees as you have enemies that are daring and quite courageous. Che Gueverra t-shirts hidden by night, these daring and darlingly chic white people of upper middle class economic status have shown much aplomb and bombast.

    Liberals are tolerant and compassionate. Islam is a religion of peace. Bush is Hitler. It’s all making sense, little by little. Beam me the F up.

    Tom

  30. Dan

    That’s a real shitty part of town. NW has been going downhill for a long time. And American University is the pits.

    I hope the dude moves down to Va where I live. If anyone tried that shit in my part of the county, they’d get shot.

    Libs have their own rules. It is their way or the highway.
    It is Nazism at it’s best.

  31. Dan

    PS:

    DC’s gun control laws were recently declared “unconstitutional” by a judge. If it were me, I’d be looking to make a purchase.

  32. Clyde Conneer

    I’ve seen that hurt,”I’m gettin’ payback.” look before. As time goes by that pain doesn’t go away,it becomes an attitude and someday an asshat brags about his brave attack on an eco-hostile inanimate object……….oops!

  33. Buerg

    Think of the MSM frenzy if this dude jumped in his Hummer, locked it in 4WD, and started playing Bigfoot on all those neo-bred cars.

    Frozen Tex hit on a very valid point. All the natural resources that will be consumed to replace/repair this guy’s ride. ELF burned a Hummer dealer a few years back. The fire captain at the scene made the comment that the pollution, and toxic fumes from the burning plastic/rubber/cloth did more damage to the environment that ALL those vehicles driving 24hrs/day for 100 years.

    The global war on warming is another crock. The world is coming out of an ice age. Do this little experiment at home.

    1. Fill a glass with water (this is the ocean)
    2. Drop an ice cube in the glass (this is an iceburg)
    3. Read patdollard.com
    4. Check the glass

    I’ll be the damned icecube melted. I’ve done this over 1000 times in my life. Not once has the ice cube made the rest of the water freeze in the glass.

    My point is that of course the iceburgs are going to melt, they are touching water. Simple grade school physics, yet these groups of tree-huggin hippies insist that it is because of the emissions put out by my Harley. A prius only gets 48mpg…I get 53mpg on my HOG and it required alot less material to build.

    They say cattle put off the most green house gases. Let’s have a big BBQ and invite some hippies over for some mud-running. We can all roast hotdogs over a stack of burning tires.

  34. Steady

    Find the a-holes who did this and cut their balls off.

  35. Vanessa

    They are dumbasses to be sure.
    they pick and choose who they decide to be holier than thou about.

    Where is their “attitude” when it comes to motorhomes?

    When ever a person gets that I know better than you condensending attitude and judgement towards ANYTHING that person dumbsdown and literally good judgement and fairness escape them, literally.

  36. TJ

    if you read media articles about car accidents you will notice the headline says “hummer kills so and so” or “SUV careens off road and kills….”. its obvious to the envirowackos that they were only defending their country from murderers! :lol:

    Hummers are insurgents in the global war on climate change! And we have King Al Gore and his enviro-minions to defend us from the dark side evil corporations that sell gas guzzlers and those other evil people who have the audacity to buy them! Allagore akbar!! :roll:

  37. TJ

    someone ought to consider hiring local gangbangers to come and steal some priuses…. :lol:

  38. Blogengeezer

    Well Pat, for some reason I can not seem to get exited about saving fuel to keep these types of ‘Ecoterrorists’ in gasoline so that they can patrol neighborhoods looking for SUV’s or whatever else ‘pops their wad’ to destroy. It takes Engineers and Scientists to build. It only takes ’sub-humans’ to destroy. I wonder why they are usually associated with the left side of society. Could it be our ‘Monopolised Union’ Public Education system? I don’t want to hear this!….La-La-La-La

    marc , sarcasm is hard to do here, I got a Hemi ram and the wife drives a V8 Jeep so I get defensive, bty some 2 inch dick fucker just keyed my wifes Jeep which is 2 weeks old. If I find out who it is going to get nasty

  40. andrew

    sadly i can relate to this fellow. you see i live in berkeley and the people there are like wild animals when it comes to perpetuating the left/right divide.

    back in october of 04 my nissan frontier was covered in eggs after i had gone out of my local blockbuster the reason? probably because of the fact that i had a bush/cheney ‘04 sticker on my bumper.

    these lefties talk about tolerance and equal rights yet they cant even exemplify these qualities when it comes to their mortal enemies, “THE REPUBLICANS!” DUN DUN DUN

  41. FTL

    a very good debate (though i still do hate npr). guess who won?

    http://www.intelligencesquaredus.org/Event.aspx?Event=12

    loved it when michael crichton asked all the leftest enviromental’s to stop flying in their private jets & move of the grid… & to stop giving their prius’ to there maids & drive ‘em.

    this environmenta crapl b.s is designed/marketed to make us feel bad about ourselves (the USA) and to make leftist groups a ton of money.

    mother nature can take care of herself very well… better than we’ll ever know. just my opinion.

  42. John Cunningham

    When government changed in South Africa car jackings increased dramatically. Many had installed on their vehicles these blades that we’re concealed under the vehicle. A button pushed inside the vehicle released the spring loaded blades and they sliced the carjackers off at mid-leg level. I’ll bet the technology is much better now and the chance of an accidental blade slinging probably never happens. Must be able to combine the blades with a car alarm. I thought the issue was not so much the amount of gas used it was the amount of pollution. Cars have had catalytic convertors on them since the ’70s. We have more vehicles on the roads but the air in cities which still could use some improvement is cleaner now since these convertors became standard equipment. What’s the problem? If someone can afford the gas, what’s it to you? Why don’t these enviro-terrorists go to China and India and see if they can get away with that shit. As the earth turns and with the prevailing winds we’re downwind from those two countries. All new factories here have to have smoke stack scrubbers on them and soon all coal burning electricity generating plants will have been upgraded. With each day the US pollutes less and less. These terrorists have misdirected anger issues. Like I said, go to China and India if you want to make a meaningful difference.

  43. France the retour

    it’s really amazing how your 2 political sides are divided in ennemies ; here the both partis could go to restaurant, or to a concert, or play any sport together and have a normal discussion without hate or angryness ;

    well if you get enough of your anaesthetic hummers, I advise you to bring them around our big cities surburbs for the next Christmas and new year times ; we need them for our ends of the year traditional fire-works

  44. azbastard

    I hate environmentlist..they try to rule the world, but ruin the world..green house gasses my ass..how about asphalt, concrete, glass..stupid bastards

  45. Laird

    This is rediculous. I lived in the DC area for 7 years, and I’m sure as hell not surprised by this. The title of the article by the Washington Post once again shows the bias… if it was a Prius, it would have been “Hate Crimes Sweep DC Neighborhoods”.

  46. Will

    Where’s the link to the report that said Hummers are more environmentally friendly than a Prius over their expected lifetimes when you need it?

    Smug, sanctimonious, eco-jihadist b*st*rds.
