I totally get that fact. I also think that it would not be bad to copy some things from other countries to make the cities in the States more liveable without car dependency. There's enough space to do that.
Whenever I'm in the States I hate the fact that everything is a 20 minute car ride away. I understand why road rage can be a thing if you spend so much time in the car.
I think we should stop calling them conservative and say it like it is. They are (far) right lunatics that fear everyone and everything that doesn't fit their narrow point of view and outdated values.
I'm just guessing, but in my country you get towed for blocking escape routes. Maybe your local fire department can help you understand what is possible to do.
Some sort of bad lemmy clone
