I once watched a group of guys in the U-District pick up a smart car and place it (right side up) on the sidewalk. I don't know if they were trying to free up a parking spot of just pranking someone.

And so the war between the Ultra-Rich and America continues.

I'm guessing these assholes won't go after Hummers and BMW's. Yes make sure the middle class knows you hate them, but don't give a shit about the super rich. It's "We are the 99%" not "We are the unemployable by choice, even though we grew up in privilege."

What political statement could that possibly be? Smart Cars are not a sign of privilege; they're small, affordable city cars. The only statement being made here is "I am a douchebag". Probably frat assholes.

And Will in Seattle thinks they're really puttin' it to the Man. What a fucking idiot you are, Willie Boy.

Thanks for putting this out there...not to warn Smart car owners (like me), but to inspire douchebags into copycat crime. Really, um, thanks.

Do we know that they didn’t just roll over and die from embarrassment?...

"They're unsure if this is a political statement or just garden-variety vandalism."

garden variety vandalism

Next question.

I wouldn't mind doing this at 7:30 am in georgetown, where 3 of those are parked in the no parking lane and traffic is backed up for a mile on airport way.

@1 Place that story 40 years ago, and insert "VW Beetle" for "smart car", and you have a timeless story.

So throw a brick through Vermillion and you're a vandalizing d-bag, but tip over someone's car (an eco-friendly car) and you're making a political statement. Fuck off.

@6

You know, the mass of the vehicle in question might have something to do with it.

Dumbass.
