SUVs: weapons of mass destruction?!

Hysterical quote from a resident of San Francisco's Castro, Mark Lauden Crosley, when asked by the San Francisco Chronicle if driving an SUV contributes to terrorism as Arianna Huffington and Americans for Fuel-Efficient Cars' Detroit Project supposes in its controversial ads:

If you've ever seen a Ford Expedition or Chevy Suburban run a stop sign or red light, you understand that these things are weapons of mass destruction. Between the arrogance of guzzling imported gas like lemonade and the killer potential of those high bumpers, surely this is what Osama would drive.
