Ever notice how many criminals use XMART BSO mountain bikes?
  Maybe we ought to ban those, being the most
crime-associated style of bicycle.  No one needs 18 speeds
to steal other people's things. One is plenty and coasting
is a suspicious act.

Someone???  complained about black pickup trucks blowing coal.
Shouldn't there be laws about the color of pickup trucks?

 I believe that when the original post was made Me. Muzi advised the
poster that there are more black pickups sold than any other color :-)
 

In fact, it's white overall:
https://www.motorbiscuit.com/1-truck-color-important-key-reason/
"The most popular color for 2022 pickup trucks is white, according to Kelley Blue Book. More than a quarter of new truck purchases are white, at 27%. Gray is in second place, at 21.5%, with black in third place at 17%. That means that 65.5% of all new pickup trucks purchased are those three colors. "
Although grey = black together are about 38%.
Parse that as you will. I don't take any meaning from it.
