re: A. Nguyen's driving "technique"

Well!  He's certainly summed up the attitude of the driver who feels that
laws interfere with his freedom (I wonder if this behavior translates into
other areas...).  A lot of heavy usage of the phrases "land of the free"
and "my freedom" there.

	I pay just as much tax as he
	does. I am entitled to use the road, MY WAY, just as much as he is.
	Whether I break the law or not is my business. Who the %#@$&* is he
	to tell me how to drive? Would he rather I pass him on the right going
	a good 20-30 mph faster, startling him into bolting off into the
	tulips? Fine, I would be GLAD to park him ANYWHERE he likes on the
	median.

Boy.  We haven't seen the likes of a personal freedom speech like that since
Patrick Henry, now, have we?  Notice that since A. Nguyen's article, no one
has stood up (even in net.flame!) to defend the position of the "libertarian"
school of driving.  I think he's said it all.  (sorry, you brought it on
yourself)
