If They Can Send a Swat Team to Raid an Innocent Baby's Home - Why Can't They Stop these Disgusting 'Rolling Coal' Polluters?
We've seen a lot of disgusting right-wing behavior over the years. But this really floors us. Conservatives, idiots and other maggot-faced degenerates are deliberately modifying their vehicles so that they spew more poisonous black smoke into the atmosphere. Why are they doing that? Don't they have to breathe, too, you ask? They are doing it to 'screw' Obama for having the audacity not only to be president, but to attempt in some small measure to enact regulations which would make the air we all breathe just a tiny bit cleaner.
These clowns (we're trying not to use curse-words here—it's really hard. Apologies to the clown population) may have surpassed the evil douchebaggery of Open Carry activists, who enjoy frightening people by walking into restaurants and toy stores with assault rifles, as the biggest a#*holes (oh darn, slipped out) on the planet.
They call themselves “coal rollers” and they install smoke stacks and special equipment in their diesel trucks that makes the engine think that it needs more fuel, resulting in plumes of black smoke.
This practice is not new, according Slate’s Dave Weigel, but it is gaining momentum and acolytes ever since Obama recently announced he woud limit coal-fired emissions.
“I run into a lot of people that really don’t like Obama at all,” a smoke stack seller in Wisconsin told Weigel. “If he’s into the environment, if he’s into this or that, we’re not. I hear a lot of that.”
Gee, smoke stack seller, you don't suppose it could have something to do with the president's race? Naaaah, of course not.
“To get a single stack on my truck—that’s my way of giving them the finger,” the smoke stack seller continued. “You want clean air and a tiny carbon footprint? Well, screw you.”
These charming individuals also reserve some of their toxic hatred for people who drive more environmentally-friendly cars, or “nature nuffies,” as they call them. The "coal rollers" aspire to undo the tiny bit of good that people who drive less polluting vehicles like the Toyota Prius. Sometimes, the coal rollers go further and do actual harm to Prius drivers. And they are proud of this.
“The feeling around here is that everyone who drives a small car is a liberal,” a South Carolina truck owner named Ryan explained to Vocativ in June. “I rolled coal on a Prius once just because they were tailing me.”
“It’s bad for the environment. That’s definitely true,” he continued. “And some of the kids that have diesel trucks can look like tools. And you can cause a wreck, but everything else about it is pretty good.”
According to RawStory: The Clean Air Task Force estimates that pollutants from diesel vehicles “lead to 21,000 premature deaths each year and create a cancer risk that is seven times greater than the combined risk of all 181 other air toxics tracked by the EPA.”
Modest proposal: How about using our fully militarized police force to combat these mass murderers, rather than raiding a family's home in Florida, say, and throwing a flash-bang grenade into a baby's crib nearly killing him?
Here's some sickening video of the some "coal rollers" in Wisconsin in 2013.
