Once they pulled at gun, it’s game over. Sorry, but I’ll consider that an attempt on my life, and all bets are off. 

You referring to the Bremen pliers or the Pittsburg? The latter are junk.

The original Petersen Vise-Grips were the excellent, after Irwin bought the company, and was later themselves bought by Rubbermaid, the factory was shut down and production moved to China. The tools were then made from pot metal, and the jaws were too soft. After Stanley Black & Decker bought Irwin, the pliers seem to…

You bring up a good point about the glide path. It strangely hits close to where he is, but the thing is, he didn’t need to bail so soon. These planes can glide for miles. Even commercial airlines can glide a long ways. I am not a pilot, (I have flown a plane before), but I can tell you this: losing an engine isn’t as…

Thais was obviously staged. Convenient cameras to document everything, no real attempt to restart the engine as far as I can tell. Most of all, he never once looked scared. There was never fear in his eyes.

Since people who use autopilot like this clearly don’t want to drive, their license should be revoked for a good decade or so.

All it takes is for one company to see that there is demand, and ramp up production. The rest won’t want to miss out on the market and things will be back to full swing as fast as they can do it.

He should have taken some personal responsibility and bought a more fuel efficient vehicle.

Inflation is affecting everyone. Nobody has a moment to spare. Maybe this is why the “don’t tread on me” crowd is gaining traction in some areas. It’s hard to let things slide, but you have to, or you’ll burnout.

He could have brought a tarp, folded the rear seats down, put the tarp down, then put the tree on the tarp, and probably could have closed the gate.

BFD. V22 Ospreys and F15 Eagles fly over my house lower than this.

So they got themselves into an unsustainable situation, and want to blame everyone else for their poor choices.

And this is way I am against self-driving cars. People who are already lazy and extremely stupid will simply be encouraged to be more so.

It would be a real shame is someone beat his face through the back of his skull with a crowbar, and kept hitting until there was nothing recognizable as a human head.

No big deal. Golden showers are very presidential, after all.

In America, property damage is unacceptable....unless the police do it.

It’s perfectly safe. The tire cushions the impact.

I wish they would ticket people for using aftermarket LEDs, LED light bars, and color headlights on public roads.
