So what's your solution, then? We just drive our huge trucks and run over all the kids who have bad parents? We take a life that we could have saved, in order to spite someone else? Cause that seems evil.

    So parents shouldn't be held accountable for their crotch spawn running amok in a right of way? What's YOUR solution? Funny how (at least in the US) you need to take a test and be licensed to drive, but any two dipshits can somehow find a way to literally not take any one of several available, some even taxpayer funded, precautions, or, irresponsibly have the kid with the plethora of options available, squirt out another human being, no test or license required. If you can't be bothered to take care of a kid, then don't fucking have one. This includes being present when they're outside playing when there's the chance of them being hurt. /rant

    So you want to hold parents accountable by killing children. And you don't think that's evil?

    By all means, point out where I said that. What I did say is, if you're going to have a kid, do the work. Get out there with them, and be a PARENT. Don't sit on your phone while they're bouncing a ball that could go into a busy right of way. I must be an evil monster for wanting parents to supervise their kids. I'm sure a whole lot of other bad things besides getting hit by whatever vehicle you deem to be the bane of humanity that might not happen if you're actually attentive.

    Oh, I get it. You changed the subject to parental responsibility and decided to ignore the subject topic without telling anyone.

    Yeah, I don't want to talk about parental responsibility if we aren't talking about oversized cars. I don't care about the tangent you're on. You should have told me you were changing the subject so I could ignore you.

    If you and taken the time to read - believe me, I understand time is valuable and arguing with people on the internet is a waste of it - you'll see that I mainly agree that "Rollin Coal" and dick-envy sized trucks are fucking dumb. But when I see someone whining "what about the children!!" I can't help but state that maybe some parental responsibility could avert the majority of the children getting smooshed by any vehicle, from an 18 wheeler all the way down to a smart car.
