What’s your most controversial opinion? **Read OP** **Mod Note in Post #3372**

Plenty of saloon cars about with bigger or similar engines as SUV's,are those next on the list?

Slashing tyres doesn't do much for the environment either.

God I feel so ashamed for knowing how to drive.

This we can agree on. I'd wager serious money that the slashed tyres were deflated, and belonged to someone who was misconstruing the two.

I've learned to give people the benefit of the doubt. Hanlon's razor applies here "never attribute to malice, that which can be adequately explained by stupidity". I've met far for stupid people than I have malicious ones, thank christ.

Unpopular opinions:

Sandals with socks is really comfortable

Going to the beach is crap, sand is brutal

Any steak cooked to anything less than Medium isn't enjoyable. The steak gets cold ridiculously quickly

Tomatoes on burgers is stupid. Same with fried eggs.

In fact, burgers have gone to the dogs. The whole point is being able to take a bite out of it. If it's 17 inches tall with a knife going through it to hold it together, what's the point? Bigger burgers should be wider, not taller.

Guinness is fairly bland, as far as stouts go

Your point was about the risks of getting caught breaking the law. Mine was about getting caught by the property owner, which is completely different. Don't try to pass it off as if you were talking about that all along. You'll also note the qualifier "if" in my earlier post, I'm not saying I will catch them, but if I do......

You don't know what people are getting up to or what errands they have to run. You've no idea who needs a bigger car or for what purposes. The "driving the kids 300 yards" story is just as interesting as any other presumption you're laying at others' feet. A more cynical man than I would suggest that a 2km trip takes less than 10 mins and produces less pollutant than a smaller car doing a bigger journey, but you go ahead and keep blaming people for being the victims there, sure. Also, it's noteworthy that you only picked the creche element out of my post to counter. You are okay with people losing their job because some scumbag thinks their car is too big, then? Or missing a plane/train/appointment?

Would you have been able to do that with a partner, 3 kids, 4 separate drop off points in opposite directions, 2 buggies and all the baggage that comes associated with ferrying kids around?*** Or are you too busy justifying criminal activity while looking down on others from your high horse?

***For the record, yes, I'm aware it's possible to do all that using taxis, but at what cost? How much is 2 taxis gonna cost you and are you willing to fork it out cos some pinko champagne socialist thought it was a good idea to let all the air out of your tyres?

I fully agree with the war on SUV's. They're utterly ridiculous to have anywhere, but especially in a built up area like a city.

I think the problem here is that while the perpetrators may have admirable motives it’s a bit like attacking a smoker to stop cancer.

The oil companies would love this sort of thing. All the money they’ve pumped into climate denial and getting the blame put on the end user is paying off.

Wouldn’t be surprised if this lot are being funded, possibly without their knowledge, by Big Oil.

I know this is boards and there's a certain few that like playing the hard man here, but why should the perpetrators be hospitalised? And who should carry out their punishment beating? Should we start hospitalising anyone convicted of a crime while we're at it? What about speeding? A broken ankle maybe? Would a broken thumb fit the crime for shoplifting? Should we hire a separate department away from the guards to carry out these punishment beatings, or are they equipped enough? Or is it just the owners that can beat people up without charge from the gardai? What if the owner was an 87 year old woman? Would she be allowed force feed them tainted meat, for example, so they're still hospitalised?

They could be hospitalized if the wrong or in this case I mean the right person caught them in the act. If I caught anyone at that with my car, they would get a toe in the hole that would send them over the nearest wall. I'd love to see one of these scumbags get a few well-deserved smacks.

Probably nothing.

You go damaging peoples property, you deserve what you get because you are a scumbag.
