ASHLAND — Twenty-six Amish who refused to pay their fines for violating a law that requires flashing lights on their buggies appeared in court on Friday.

Once there, Ashland Municipal Court Judge John Good ruled out the possibility of jail time for them and instead said he would impose liens on their real estate.

I am looking at all the comments and sub comments and realizing almost all the people commenting don’t realize this is posted in fuckcars.

The entire point of this community is to point out how cars have screwed everyone else from using roads and paths that at times predated cars. Most major city’s could add good bike paths and lighten the traffic by using bikes or any other non vehicle option.

This is what happens when a large chunk of lemmy users browse via all.

The worst is when people come from all and post discriminatory comments in a group that is specifically meant as a support group for vulnerable people.

I hate cars, but I hate dumb arguments even more.

Oh I realised what sub this is but that makes shit arguments not better. This subject makes the sub look stupid, it shouldn't have been posted.
