[oldballs]

Probably has a silencer and a brake on it, too.

Certainly .....that's Tier 5 EPA requirement!

The only way to deal with a bad tractor is to hit it with a good one!

Dozens of people could have been killed. The only way to stop this madness is to ban or heavily tax diesel fuel so the mentally ill won't be able to get their hands on a tractor and threaten the lives of innocents. Only one or two cylinder tractors should be needed and allowed. No Constitutional ammendment is gonna give them killers a free pass. The guverment has gotto do somethin real quick.. The copy-cats are already forming internet forums on how to best do this with tractors never directly intended for farming. OMG. God help us.

Amtrak train from Pontiac and Detroit to Chicago hits tractor in Michigan

I'm set! I have a two cylinder garden tractor and a John Deere 70 gasser and a John Deere "R" (diesel) but I expect my JD 3010 will be put on a banned list!

When tractors and trains are outlawed, only outlaws will have tractors and trains.

It was probably a "3" cylinder tractor ... but since it isn't politically correct to comment on something as different (queer) as a diesel engine with an odd number of cylinders the government won't act and we could be held in contempt for discussing the wreck :mur:

Does that mean queer 3-cylinder engines can't get married?

Armed guards at every railroad crossing....

They just can't be married to shuttle transmissions in certain (used/reconditioned) states

That was a good read.. Youz all funny!

Actually, this is all sad in today's reality. Maybe we could do what my college dorm did? They put a ban on any even involving more then 5 people, unless you were given a permit. This was really tough for us when we ordered pizza considering we only had about 2 dollars each, but at least least it would be tough to have a mass anything....

No, but during the first snowfall each year there was a huge dorm on dorm snowball fight and usually at least two pizza delivery guys would get pummeled and their pizza stolen.
