The human mentality towards others has been this way for longer than ANY of us have been alive. You already know this, but these days we are trying too hard to find the blame that things such as the car, guns, money and other material items are victims to OUR already natural habits. It's called.. drum roll please... The EGO! :O yes folks.. the ego. YES, cars do provoke us into unleashing this beast called the ego, because they are sort of.. in a strange way, tanks. We usually feel bigger and more in control of others, so no they don't help. But they are in no way the cause of humans acting hateful. I've been in the store getting a jug of milk and bread before.. when a lady basically shoved her way in front of me before I could get to the cashier. I said in a joking way "haha, I've just got two items.. mind if I go first?" All I got was a sneer and the good ol fashion "are you ****ing stupid" look. She ofcourse had an entire cart full of things.

Anyways. I wasn't trying to bust your chops.. just saw an opportunity to rant about something I find important.
