They see it as a "fuck you" to liberals/environmentalists.
I've seen around 5 guys (maybe the same one?) doing this in Seattle. They are extremely stupid looking and they also cover their license plate with "mud." It makes me laugh because they're spending lots and lots of money and time to look that fucking stupid.
Same here, giant jacked up white 4x4, the only thing missing was the trump flag. Othello neighborhood, obviously not a local.
The one(s) I saw were all matte black, so we now know there are at least 2 of them. POS going to Othello? Again, so fucking stupid. I grew up in the Chicago area, I would love to see them try that crap in those neighborhoods, they wouldn't have time to see what was coming. Seattle suburbanites really are spoiled and don't how bad the consequences can be when they're being shitty.
Haha I grew up (sometimes, moved a lot but fam was from) near where Comiskey park was, 33rd & Emerald.
Yeah, saw the white shitroller, lifted, big wheels, lots of bumperstickers @ othello & mlk last week revving at the intersection then rolling coal over people @ the light rail station. If I had an AT4 at that moment, I'd probably be in jail now.
Glad you didn't too, they're not worth it.
Honestly, that's how I read it, so message received. It's not the sort of thing you say or do if you're trying to win friends and influence people, though.
