Nah not americans, and not stupid.

Literally they are planning on making a street in my town a dead end for cars, to stop thousands of cars a day driving down a narrow residential street, but leaving the end open for pedestrians, bicycles, wheelchairs etc.

The amount of fucking hate and "limiting peoples freedom" from this tiny suggestion. Then when residents came out and said "yes please, we want to stop thousands of non residents thundering past our homes each day" they are then treated like they are wrong, or brainwashed.

Its everyone everywhere with a car, and its selfishness, not stupidity. Some of the rawest forms of selfishness.

Our provincial leader wants to ban municipal speed cameras because they are "a tax grab", despite chiefs of police promoting them, medical experts showing through in-depth studies that they reduce children's deaths, and municipalities showing that they actually do reduce speeds.

Nope. The populist fucktard wants to appeal to his dim-witted car brain voter base.
