Is rolling coal still a thing? I may have been "targeted" today.

I drive a Prius. I was coming home from the grocery store today when this big pickup came alongside. There was a big (I dunno, 4-6 inch) metal tube or stovepipe coming out of what I always thought was a tool box located at the front of the box part. Lots of nasty black smoke came from there.

It makes me kind of happy that I might have triggered him. But I still think he's a jerk.

OTOH, maybe that's just how he rolls and it had nothing to do with me.

3. At the first NO KINGS! protest in our town, a maga jerk made 2 passes in front of us blowing black smoke at human level

During 2nd pass, some photos were taken. And a cop was observing.

Jerk got charged, indicted, and is waiting trial for endangering people

4. Yeah, "rolling coal" is the purview of morons who reject the science of glabal warming*

But sure, lets' dig up trillions of tons of carbon and BURN IT.
That can't possibly cause a single problem, right?


* I hate the switch to "Climate Change", since the spike in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is most definetly warming the planet. Global "heating" is a more accurate definition. But since Reich Wing idiots equate "global warming" with carbon credits or reduced $$$ or some other nonsense, we needed to soft pedal it by calling it "climate change".

5. I am inclined to think you were targeted. Wikipedia mentions the term "Prius Repellant."

Here is a photo from the Wikipedia page about "Rolling Coal"

6. Jerk who attacked our No Kings protest had the pipe for the smoke located under the step up into the cab

Definitely modified to attack people on sidewalk with his toxic fumes. Thinking that fact won't help him much when his trial date comes up.
