If anyone who may still be reading proffy's drivel ever had a life
goal of responding to someone on Usenet with "Pot, kettle, black," now

Wrong, birdbrain, I have news for you. "Sustentative" does NOT equal
"substantive." Just a helpful hint from your intellectual superior.

Yes, that's one example. The question you asked is another.

You just keep telling yourself that. Just like you keep telling
yourself there's a "right" to drive.

So let's make the test more stringent! No argument from me about this!

Thanks for admitting you're opposition is not due to this supposed
infringement on a "right" but because of government bureaucracy! Your
entire argument exposed as fraud!

But you'd have it so that we can't do anything about it until someone is
killed or injured by unsafe driving. Then, and only then, you think we
should be able to go after the person.

I really wish you'd go away.

So sue us. Or shut up. Just stop whining about the "trespass on your
rights."

Why is this strange?

It is "specific," you fool, as I have pointed out to you before.
