Memo to "Filthy Cars" Anonymous:
Let me tell you about my country. We have a constitutional democracy in which, more or less, we are free to do as we please with the resources we have. We are also free to visit any part of our country. Residents of one state are not permitted to treat those of another state less favorably. And we certainly can't treat people from another part of town like second-class citizens. Why,to do so would simply be un-American.
Tell us about the country you live in.
