You have the right to be ignorant of the meaning of Libertarianism, and I have the right to call you out on your ignorance.
As any good libertarian (which I am not) would declare, this is "tyranny of the majority".

A common prinicipal of libertarianism declares, "There need be protection also against the tyranny of the prevailing opinion and feeling, against the tendency of society to impose its own ideas and practices as rules of conduct on those who dissent from them..."

Yes, I know I exaggerate the point.

You're not the first.

I can't find the thread and someone may have already pointed this out, but a bit over a year ago (maybe a little more) someone (can't remember his screen name) posted about having put monitors in his Elise headrests (with pictures posted and everything ) and the thread got so out of hand with derogatory comments about him, his wife, etc that it was closed. He stopped coming by as well.

Hopefully that is not happening here (I've only read the first page).

I think it was 808elise......and here's thread explaining why you can't find the one you're looking for.


Another disappearing thread?

Another reference to it-
In need of a high output alternator!!

Thanks, Tracy.

I thought I was either not searching correctly or losing my mind.

I won't tell you which is more likely .

And I was wrong. Looks like 808 still comes around. Last activity was yesterday.

I can't keep reading this thread. Really. I stay away from it. But a quick review tells me it is going over the edge. No, it has gone over the edge. Disagree with the idea all you want (collective you). No need to tell the person he is an idiot and doing so (assuming you feel you have to), is breaking the forum rules.

Yeah... we're not making laws preventing people from putting monitors in their headrests... we're just giving them the negative attention they paid their hard earned dollars to get!!!

A true non-conformist is hard to find. If we jump to conclusions and fall prey to our own prejudices, we'll never know.

I don't give a rat's arse what anyone else does to their car. Different strokes for different folks. That's what makes the world go 'round.

It's strange to be sure but not so nearly disturbing as when the roadkids dropped Richard Simmons, nude in a salad, on us unsuspecting readers.
