‘The Anderson Police Department thanked the people who helped find and apprehend Ashby, though it did make clear in its press release that “it is generally safer for citizens to contact police prior to engaging criminals.”’

Just checked. One of the changes that made the “Holiday” was Strato bucket seats.

I went to an Autocross with a guy in a bench seat Tacoma. Kept getting yelled at by the track workers to keep my arms inside the car... had to explain that it was necessary to keep myself from sliding around.

I remember hearing the early days of racing with bench seats they would put a 2x4 through the seat to the dash to prevent the old slide across

I didn’t even think about that (my old C10's bench has been replaced with buckets), but that would’ve been even funnier. Trying to stay in place with both hands on the wheel of an old Olds

LOL! My ‘81 C10 is the same way.

The highlight of the only SCCA event I ever went to was the guy tearing around in his late 80s RWD (and very unmodified) Ford Ranger. The love that guy got from everyone from M3 to 911 owners was great and the reason the car enthusiast community is so awesome.

This is my kind of content.

undercover officers pretend to be dope dealers, waiting for eager customers to approach, and then arrest potential buyers and seize their vehicles

Simple: When Cop says get on the ground, you do what the Cop says. Even if you’re a Cop. And maybe the other Cop won’t shoot you.

You’ve never been to a WalMart in the south, have you?

I was more confused by the fact that I’m a 19y/o college sophomore and just got accused by a random internet commenter of being an out-of-touch, uneducated old person based on a joke about a misread word.

I’m...not even really sure what to do with this response.

“Their plan was shit and it failed.” 

I’m a white dude raised by a single Mom (until I was 11 and she ended up with an uneducated assbag who liked to hit me whenever I made him feel stupid). What the fuck is your point even?

I’m a middle aged white lady. This sickens me. I only raised one kid—a girl—but if I ever learned she did something like this I’m not sure she would be allowed into the wider world again. I don’t have an answer except to speak up to other white people when shit like this happens. There is literally no excuse for this…

While I’m neither a Beckizilla nor a Chad, I am a white parent of white kids. If any of my kids, or any of their friends, were involved in anything like this, I would beat the white off of them.

Time for the obligatory, when are white people going to do something about their communities so shit like this doesn’t continue to happen. Where are the fathers? Why aren’t the mothers doing a better job at raising these thugs? How do they manage to have such a sense of entitlement. Wypipo, you’re raising your…

Chad here. Shit like this is one of the reasons I don’t want my elementary son playing football in our West Texas town, and also why we moved him out of private ‘Christian’ school to a public school. This is generationally wrong. These kids are wrong, their parents are wrong and their grandparents are wrong. I don’t…
