You can care about the environment without treating a stranger's fill-up like your personal TED Talk. People are allowed to buy gas and drive their families around. What they are not required to do is stand there and take a sermon from someone who walked up uninvited. The hands on the car are the line. Once you start smacking somebody's vehicle, you have left speech and entered something that can turn into a real problem in a parking lot. And telling a man he maybe should not have kids is an ugly thing to say to anyone. It may be partly performed for views. Even if it is real, that is not a conversation we would want anyone starting next to our car. Say your piece if you must, keep your hands to yourself, and leave a stranger's family out of it. Disagree with the car. Do not put your hands on it.
