   Bravo! That's the way it goes. The Republicans preach this "freedom" that   
   kills and maims people --like the guns-- and the Democrats are trying to do   
   something timid without changing anything. I'd say they would equally be   
   screaming at any effort to    
   implement speed cameras.   
      
   I can be both the driver on the right or the passing driver on the left,   
   depending on what kind of car I drive and what hurry I'm in. But this conflict   
   not only brings anarchy, it results in ROAD RAGE and plenty of preventable   
   accidents.   
      
   Stupid system. Anarchy doesn't work. Many people buy an armored vehicle --an   
   SUV-- to survive in the chaos.
