That’s being rather generous…

That’s why they have to be exempted… They wouldn’t be able to do their job otherwise.

Except if you go far enough left, you get your guns back…

But… It’s observable fact…

Everything is bigger in Texas…

6’ fat dude here… 46" I think… maybe only 44…

They found a scam to replace stop & frisk.

The type of person to shoot up a political campaign office is a threat to their community and shouldn’t have access to firearms.

Kind of a pointless thing to say, unless you have some breakthrough methods of how to identify the type beforehand…

Fuck off.

Can’t be worse than Mesa PD…

More likely an improvement…

Years ago, I read the book Empire because I had been a fan of OSC and didn’t know yet what a dickhead he was. The book describes more or less exactly what you said, it was comical, but also kind of sad.

And when some asshole merges in front of you going 30mph when traffic is going 60-70 and there’s no way you can avoid it, so you bounce off him into someone else and it ends up being a 5-car pileup, it’s ok because at least he wasn’t speeding.

I’d say the odds of kids doing that are pretty slim, they usually aren’t that strategic when it comes to food.

Tell me you don’t have kids without telling me you don’t have kids…

Would the chase not be more dangerous than whatever you are being fined for ?

It’s not just cars, just recently cops in New York City shot each other and several bystanders on the subway trying to hit a guy with a knife they had been following over a <$3 fare evasion. Land of the free, home of the brave.

If we could count on unsafe drivers getting tickets, then maybe that would be acceptable, but that’s not how it works. It’s really hard to quantity “safety”. It’s really easy to quantity speed. It’s difficult to quantify what speed is safe, so in most cases, we pick an arbitrary number, which damn near everyone ignores. At least where I live, 5 over is a minimum, 10-15 over is common. So cops can pretty much pull anyone over at a whim. And they do. But they don’t make a dent in actual unsafe driving.

If only we had that, rather than revenue generation…

That works, just ask my two kids.

One of these things is not like the other…

Anarcho-syndicalist commune.
