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.
