An Open Letter To The World From A Car Enthusiast

17 Aug 2017

Dear world,

There’s no point in trying to dress this up with flowery language, so I am going to get straight to the point.

If you think that it’s OK to use cars, trucks and other automobiles to demonstrate your hatred of others by attacking innocent people, you are sick and depraved. It frustrates me, yet leaves me full of guilt, that the very things for which I have the most passion in life are being used as instruments of evil.

Cars are a very important part of my life, and that of many others. My existence has been deeply enriched by being a part of car culture. Cars have brought many good people together around the world. Please don’t turn them into a machine destined to tear us all apart.

In solidarity with the victims of vehicular attacks around the world, including those in Paris, Berlin, London, Charlottesville, and Barcelona,

Kyle Ashdown

I am not trying to say that running protesters over are ok, but they are blocking the road way so i think it is ok to nudge them a bit to get them out of your way, not purposely head done the road at 70 mph. I don’t understand why people would treat other people and there cars that way by running them over. That is very wrong especially with the victims of Paris, Berlin, London, Charlottesville, and Barcelona.

Yes. I totally agree with you. These people that use cars, objects that bring us pleasure, the pleasure of driving, to kill innocent people are a disgrace to petrolheads all around the world. Rest in peace!
