Tommy Shane Steiner, a mostly retired country singer, has been flying and landing his private helicopter at an Austin shopping center to “ward off” people who he said were breaking into businesses.
Steiner told KXAN that he likes to commute to work in a helicopter, a sentiment he has shared on Instagram as well.
“Austin traffic is bad, so I’m doing my part to make it a little better by not being in it. #ecowarrior,” he said in a post of a video of him flying over downtown Austin.
Ok, so he’s also a moron. In case anyone was wondering.
I think they’re referring to the #ecowarrior hashtag. I’m sure the original was supposed to be a tongue in cheek dig at the #fuckcars crowd but it’s definitely wrong that a local helicopter ride is better for greenhouse gas emissions than one car in normal traffic
