Nothing says Fucking Redneck idiot Hillbillies more than this

[georgeyw]

Mate had an old ass f350 that was great for doing this.

[suesheboy]

What ass hats. Way more sickening than funny, and it is funny.

I see this type in the backwoods of Tennessee and North Carolina all the time. Plenty in Central Florida too.

[Grapesoda]

[seeandsee]

fucking idiots

[mineistaken]

Damn republicans.

[Buff]

I bet the people engaged in this behavior are voracious readers of books -- and I don't mean simply auto/biographies of prominent Neocons, but rigorous, serious content like literature in foreign languages and science.

[WDF]

The tinted back windows and decals hide the gun rack with the assault rifles in it.

[blackmonsters]

There is nothing special about smoke coming out of a truck so why are they having such a good time?

Because they have found a way to fuck with people.
It's a great discovery for them.

[beerptrol]

You're talking about people who think cow tipping and chasing their sister is a good time!

[RebelR]

I believe they are part of the anti Prius/Volt/Tesla movement.

So do they.

[BFT3K]

You know what kind of people do stupid shit like that?

Fucking morons. Fucking morons do shit like that.

[oppoten]

Hillbillies don't force their shit on the rest of the world. It's a problem that can easily be contained.

[BFT3K]

[John-ACWM]

you said it right!

funny as fuck

Well said. Unlike some other creatures in the left/liberal positions..

[dyna mo]

told ya.

this is what happens when the discussion is made into a dems v repubs issue instead of the real issue- curbing pollution.


congrats.

[MK Ultra]

So a bunch of asshats modify their trucks to make a lot of smoke to fuck with people and suddenly they are making an anti-EPA, anti-Obama, pro-conservative political statement?



I guess you can turn anything political if you try hard enough

.. but isn't that exactly what they are doing?

The whole clean / green energy thing isn't something that should be looked at as being "forced" on to other people. The amount of pollution we are putting into the air is causing real problems: It's making people sick, it's destroying the landscape, it's warming the planet - all of which costs alot of money. Adopting "green" policies doesn't mean that anyone, even pickup truck owners, have to give up anything.

If I ever met one of the idiots in those videos, I'd love to have a conversation with them. I think it might go something like this:

Me: "Why do you modify your truck to spew out black smoke?"

Redneck: "Because I don't like the green agenda being pushed on me. I'm from 'Merica, woo!"

Me: "Pretend your barn is the world. Would you run your pickip in your bar with the doors closed?"

Redneck: "Hell Yeah! Fumes don't hurt nobody no-how! Wooo!"

Me: "What about your cows & chickens?"

Redneck: "That's a great idea! Smoked meat! Wooo!"

Me: "Would you let your Dog stay in that barn with your running pickup truck?"

Redneck: "... ... ..."


A little extreme, but you get the point.

[BFT3K]

[bronco67]

I've always noticed that most guys who drive big loud trucks are douches. Almost across the board jerk-offs. This cements it.

[Spudstr]

I drive a ram 2500 diesel... i also pull a 18k lb 5th wheel with it..

what kills me is these idiots with big disel trucks that are jacked up.. and don't pull/tow anything.

LOOK BRAh! Look at mah truckkk!

[Amputate Your Head]

I would love to do that to every shit box Prius I see driving 50mph on the freeway clogging traffic up.

[eipstudios]

It's called rollin' coal. Diesel truck owners spend anywhere between $1,000-$5,000 to thumb their nose at fuel efficiency, sometimes literally leaving greener cars in a cloud of smog produced by one or more smokestacks, according to Vocativ. That belching black smoke that covers the road is produced by hitting an installed switch that feeds excess fuel into the engine; a practice started in the rural motorsport known as truck pulls.

These days, drivers will roll coal to pollute, harass pedestrians and punish green drivers -- or really anyone else -- for their choice of car. It may seem like good old boy fun, but it's dangerous as well as dirty. These enthusiasts will often blind cars following too close or coming from the other direction, greatly raising the risk of a crash. Talking Points Memo reached out to Liz Purchia, the press secretary for the EPA about rollin' coal.


The idea of "rolling coal" has been around for a little while, but now it has become a full-fledged anti-environment protest. Essentially, diesel truck owners with a strong desire to preserve their right to be as thick-headed and inconsiderate as possible modify their trucks to increase fuel intake. Excess fuel inhibits combustion enough that any fuel which isn't combusting is exhausted as soot. These mods are expensive, so a person has to really commit to being this hateful.


The problem with rolling coal is not just environmental though. Exposure to diesel exhaust is also a health hazard. But, why would these guys care if people get cancer, COPD, heart disease, etc? I mean this is about FREEDOM and their RIGHT to pollute as much as they want because nobody likes the Prius.

Diesel exhaust and many individual substances contained in it (including arsenic, benzene, formaldehyde and nickel) have the potential to contribute to mutations in cells that can lead to cancer. In fact, long-term exposure to diesel exhaust particles poses the highest cancer risk of any toxic air contaminant evaluated by OEHHA. ARB estimates that about 70 percent of the cancer risk that the average Californian faces from breathing toxic air pollutants stems from diesel exhaust particles.

Exposure to diesel exhaust can have immediate health effects. Diesel exhaust can irritate the eyes, nose, throat and lungs, and it can cause coughs, headaches, lightheadedness and nausea. In studies with human volunteers, diesel exhaust particles made people with allergies more susceptible to the materials to which they are allergic, such as dust and pollen. Exposure to diesel exhaust also causes inflammation in the lungs, which may aggravate chronic respiratory symptoms and increase the frequency or intensity of asthma attacks.

The fact that you would LOVE to do this does not surprise me at all.

[Robbie]

So I guess the U.S. Govt. is the biggest Redneck Idiot Hillbilly on the planet:

"The US military is responsible for the most egregious and widespread pollution of the planet, yet this information and accompanying documentation goes almost entirely unreported. In spite of the evidence, the environmental impact of the US military goes largely unaddressed by environmental organizations and was not the focus of any discussions or proposed restrictions at the recent UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen. This impact includes uninhibited use of fossil fuels, massive creation of greenhouse gases, and extensive release of radioactive and chemical contaminants into the air, water, and soil."

[Robbie]

Oh, and don't forget about the Redneck Idiot Hillbilly cargo ships. Apparently just SIXTEEN of them spew more pollution than every car on Earth combined:

I guess pointing out that the dumb fuck "Rolling Coal" idiots have pretty much zero impact on the environment compared to the REAL polluters must have killed this thread.

These guys are doing it to be assholes. Mlitary, cargo ships and the rest of us pollute to 'use' energy for transport.

We don't blow it in people's faces which can result in serious health conditions. We don't blind cars behind us potentially causing accidents and we don't try to be inconsiderate because we don't like someone else's car.

The Prius drivers don't like pollution so they spend 'their own' money to do less themselves. They don't go harassing drivers of bigger vehicles.

These guys are douches plain and simple.

Why .... .

[Robbie]

I agree they are being "douches". It's a free country (sort of) so they can still make their displeasure known in whatever way they choose.

I'm just saying that the govt. tells the people to live "small" while they live LARGE.

They ride around in limousines and private jets and send the military all over the world polluting in such huge amounts that it's unfathomable.

And at the same time they scold us and tell us to live frugally. Drive small cars and "save" energy, etc., etc.

Looks to me like hypocrisy from the govt.
And the biggest reason that people don't believe that "global warming" is anything more than a scam.

If it were real, and going to destroy mankind...then why is the govt. not STOPPING the shit it's doing?
Oh they want you and me to stop our puny existence...but when it comes to their comfort or their military ambitions...it's full steam ahead and fuck the pollution. lol

That's not exactly a fair comparison. The rednecks are doing it JUST to pollute (and spend alot of extra money on gas I guess). Containerships, move thousands of tons of cargo half way around the world. The fuel that they need probably has to be pretty powerful stuff. Though I guess that if they could, they found find cheaper, greener alternatives to it sooner or later I would hope.

If the world is truly in the throes of "Climate Change" caused by these emissions and it's going to destroy mankind...then a "fair comparison" shouldn't even be in the equation now should it?

What use is cargo if we are all dead, right?

What use is the military if we are all going to die from Climate Change? Right?

If the govt. really believes that climate change is happening...then why are they only worried about the comparably piss ant amounts of emissions that we citizens put out?

Obviously they are NOT too worried about it. Almost like it's a complete non-issue EXCEPT for the multi-billion dollar business of buying and selling "carbon credits".

Makes a rational man think that something just isn't adding up...

I hear what you're saying, but I think you're missing the point. Look at it this way : Cargo ships, despite how much they pollute, are probably pretty efficient because they can move so much, so fast, so far, with "so much" being the point.

A bus is more efficient than a car because it moves more people from point A to point B. Even though a bus may pollute more as a vehicle, it pollutes less, costs less, and uses less energy, per-passenger.

Or to look at it another way, imagine if each cargo container was moved one at a time, on a truck lets say, from China to the US, across super long bridges. The amount of energy used and pollution spewed would be much higher than shipping them by a massive cargo carrying boat.

One of the most in efficient ways to move people is with cars because most of the time, a big 4 passenger car has only 1 person in it. The amount of energy it takes to get that person from home to work is maybe only 10% of what is used to move the car (Just a guess). The rest of the energy is lost to noise, heat and exhaust.

This is why the push towards fuel efficient cars or alternative energy cars makes so much sense: You should be able to get someone from point A to point B with less energy, or cleaner energy, or both. A 4 Cyl car does exactly the same thing as an 8 Cyl car does getting the guy from work to home, with less energy and less pollution. (Less fun too perhaps, but you get my point).

Peace.

Doing that shit to people on motorcycles or bicycles is going to get someone hurt or killed.

Then the real solution is not to import cheap shit from china and cut down on transportation. Go back to consuming what is grown, produced and manufactured locally and cut that part of the transportation chain out completely.

What is being missed is that these guys are making their point, just like environmentalists who like to preach from the pulpit. Both are equally as annoying, and most people who like to drive compact, efficient cars, or those that like to drive larger, less efficient vehicles, do so without bothering anyone about their personal choices.

That would be awesome. It's too bad we buy most of our stuff from China and overseas. It's almost impossible to find things marked "made in Canada" or "made in the USA" anymore.

In that case, I'd say that their point they are trying to make, is a non-point. No one is losing their personal choice. You can buy 4 Cyl or 8 Cyl cars, or electric, or whatever. You can't beat a Ford or Dodge 8 Cyl Pickup truck for power - even I know that. And muscle cars will never go away, nor should they. No one says don't buy Gas cars. What is being said is simply is that there are alternatives out there for people who want to save money and pollute less.

You're still missing the point, that's obvious because instead of even acknowledging their point (crucial step in altering behavior, meeting in the middle, finding solutions, resolving issues, etc, et al.), you simply keep talking your's.

Again, you show you don't want to curb pollution, you want to finger-point and argue while acting elitist for having a green attitude while driving a brand-new car that just dumped 20 tons of pollution onto the planet just to be manufactured.

well done.

oh, and cargo shipping in its entirety only accounts for 3-4% of all greenhouse gases produced globally.

He's trolling half of the time. You and I post what we actually think because we actually think it. Maybe we're fucking idiots but at least we are being who we are, instead of trolls that cannot be believed or trusted. Funny thing is when these guys want us to believe something real, how do you know that they are being truthful? And frankly, why even care if they are being truthful? They have already damaged their credibility by being trolls.

Agreed on both points.

[The Porn Nerd]

Every one of those idiots should be put in jail. Period.

How many of these coal rollers would object if someone took out a cigarette in a bar and tried to smoke? "Take it outside!" they would yell. LOL What a fucking joke.

There should be laws against doing this AND 98% of coal production should be stopped immediately. Look at West Virginia and what's happened to that beautiful state because of mountaintop removal.

Ah why do I even bother? Fuck it, carry on. LOL
