A commercial H*mmer is inefficient at moving cargo around; it is inefficient at moving people around; its main purpose seems to be to make pedestrians and small vehicles feel unwelcome on their own streets. If the H*mmer driver wants to "play soldier", why don't they just get some toy plastic soldiers and head for their own backyard sandbox?
Exactly. This is a vehicle designed for a specific task: killing people outside it - or in the case of the newer models, designed to LOOK like a killing machine. And those of us outside them who find them threatening and want them out of our communities are the wackos?!
