I agree that there are quite a few d-bags out there that feel the need to over-compensate thru their tailpipes. And there are even a few that are too loud that just dig the way it sounds. I actually refuse to take my baffles out because the one time I did I felt it was excessive (before you label me a sweetheart, understand my pipes are pretty loud without them... though I don't feel they're obnoxious, and neither do my neighbors). I also feel that these people risk the very rights they proclaim to support and protect with their recklessness. Especially when you consider that beyond the occasional run-in with a cell-phone cager loud pipes do absolutely nothing to make you safer. THAT SAID, no amount of whining or lobbying SHOULD enable the constabulary to violate a constitutional amendment. Enforce the laws, fairly... but to single out a segment of the population is a tragic inequity. I daresay such a thing wouldn't be tolerated if the group were BMW drivers or soccer moms.
