Deep in the heart of Florida, Carlos owns a dozen vehicles, each one bigger than the last. Carlos and his friends belong to a group of exhaust fume fanatics called “The Coal Rollersâ€, who like to film themselves smiling as they inhale toxic fumes from their 4×4 diesel cars. It’s a practice that sometimes goes so far as to include modifying diesel engines to emit a thick black smoke that is particularly harmful to health and the environment. In online videos, they smoke pedestrians, cyclists and electric car drivers – anyone they suspect of being an environmentalist. “Coal rolling†is now banned on public highways. However, there’s nothing to stop them getting together to burn as much fossil fuels as they possibly can on private property.

If you cant win an argument….. do a backflip.
Most of these people are the epitome of stupidity and ignorance. They’ve made the US into the laughing stock it now is.
On pollution, we are not even close to being the second-largest polluter on the planet (China, India, Bangladesh, etc.). We have done more than anyone to rectify the by-products of manufacturing, and to minimize the impact of pollution on our planet.
On everything else – It's called Live and Let Live. You leave me alone, I leave you alone. I guess y'all enjoy going to jail for posting words online.
