Had to look this one up. I’m assuming this is what you’re referring to:

‘The term "moonbat" is often used to refer to individuals or groups who are perceived as alarmist or fanatical, particularly in the context of anti-war activism, environmentalism, and other leftist political movements.’

Then I double checked. Thought I had gone to the Clubhouse. Lol

Unfortunately I didn't have to look that up - I am surrounded by them and they are all rabid!

Whether North or South, Rural living seems synonymous with loud cars and louder motorcycles ( Harleys, 2-Strokes, and the Japan-ese bikes ).

Oh and a few racetracks.

Don't forget about the airports./

Which perfectly describes city dwellers like you WHEN it comes to drag strips, even when the drag strip was there long before their ticky tack subdivision was a realtor’s wildest fantasy. If it weren’t for the NHRA, IRP would be a distant memory.

I feel sorry for you guys in Oregon and Washington…..pretty soon you won’t be able to do anything there.

Sounds exactly what happened to Englishtown Raceway Park. Built mcmansions next to the track, then complain about the track. I hope every one of those homeowners that complained, dies of a$$ cancer.

Precisely. Only NHRA intervention saved IRP years ago.
