Absolutely - I ride a "push bike" to work for at least half of my commutes. And for those of us on bicycles, the "local smog" element of the motorcycle is disturbing, since we are breathing in everything they are putting out. When even a fairly modern motorcycle or scooter goes by, the amount of pollutants coming out of the tailpipe is clearly more than a car, based upon the nose & lung test.

It's a shame that his motorcycle most likely puts out more emissions than that SUV.

"Are motorcycles a less-polluting alternative to cars? No, in fact, motorcycles produce more harmful emissions per mile than a car or even a large SUV. The current federal motorcycle standard for hydrocarbon emissions is about 90 times the hydrocarbon standard for today's passenger cars."

As far as the other side goes, the FBI terrorism experts cleared them and the airline still banned them from flying.

The airline owns the plane, not the FBI. The airline broke no laws. They can kick you off for chewing the wrong flavor of gum. As far as the plane goes, the pilot is GOD as long as you are on that plane. Don't like it? Toooo bad. Suck it up.

You just Foxwined the thread. Anytime a poster pulls out Foxnews as some hatemongering right-wing nutjob site that spreads hate, you automatically lose the argument. Double-negative points if you use the alternative spelling of 'Fauxnews'.

Idiot.

You. Farking. IDIOT.

Islam is a RELIGION (being generous with that statement), NOT A RACE.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. Go buy a dictionary before you shove your foot any further down your throat.

STFU, STFD, & HAND. HTH.

What does an open pocket of flat bread have to do with anything?

Shut up, troll boy. Either you are a crappy troll, or you really believe what you just wrote and as such are wasting the oxygen that could better be used by someone with functional gray matter.
