Not to be a nitpicker (well, maybe), but I thought you were TOTALLY against regulation?

Just because I believe in the literal meaning of the second amendment does not mean that I oppose all laws.

The wildlife of Texas belongs to the citizens of this fine state. Wildlife conservation is supported through hunting license fees.

Hunters who harvest more than the legal limit belong in jail as do poachers.

New cars do not come with trash cans in them either... however:
I teach my kids not to chuck crap out the window, but to put it in a proper container for disposal when we get home.

Please don't mistake my statement that new Volvos don't have ashtrays as an IF/THEN fallacy that I support littering. I hate it. It is my pet peeve.

Let me slip back in here with a couple more...the characters waddling around with their britches falling off their hind end like it was some kind of symbolic badge of pride or some social statement or whatever...the folks out in public taking a poorly concealed leak beside their car on the highway or beside a bush at the boat ramp...

When you gotta go you gotta go.... :smilelol5:
A buddy of mine and I were out doing some "Ridge Running" which included such lovely places as East Durham, NY, and the real Woodstock, among others, all up and down the Catskills, right where "Dirty Dancing" took place, with all those resorts just packed with girls. Anyway, as we left a gin mill to go to the dance hall down the road, my buddy decided it would be appropriate to micturate right there in the parking lot next to my car.

The only problem was that it wasn't my car, and it drove off before he finished his emiction. :rolll

And there he stood, in an empty parking space.

for this mountain biker, it's got to be:

1. dogs not on leashes, PERIOD
2. dog poop on the trail
3. casual walkers who don't yield trail to faster-moving trail users

:iagree:

And dogs on leashes 15' long stretched across the trail... The Gary Fisher 29er does a good job of taking out the owner and the dog, when the leash gets caught in the handle bars.

At the beach, people leaving the engine running on their bond-o speckled, whale-finned rice burner so that their radio doesn't drain the battery while blasting whatever atrocious music they found in the dollar bin at walmart. The exhaust smells, the music sucks, and the sight of the poor creature that used to be a Civic make it offensive to almost all senses.

(Although using the truck to tow them out when they get stuck in the sand does earn enough good samaritan money to finance the gas and beer for the day)

Other than that, almost all my pet peeves are the indoor variety.
