Babies? 

I refer to all Chinese restaurants as Panda Dumpling. 

Deadspin remembers. 

And just to make it more comical, we have helicopters all over the place that can keep an eye on any fleeing vehicle for ages. Hell, my tiny ass little town has a police chopper. 4000 people.

Not really true.  Pulling a gun starts an immediate escalation that cannot easily be slowed down.  If both sides have pulled a gun, the chances that someone getting shot are astronomical.  One side being unarmed makes it far more likely they will immediately disengage.  At that point, an unarmed traffic cop can send…

Well, it would force them to be far less aggressive.  Cops can flee situations that have turned too dangerous, instead of shooting people who fled them because the cop stuck a gun in their face.  Cops get shot at traffic stops because of complacency, not because they were unarmed.  If we need a concession, a car gun…

I see it's time for a body search!  Why?  Well, you look real nervous, son, gives me a good reason to search you. 

Sounds like Wilkes county

Same.  We flattened the initial curve, had some "reopen" protests that were apparently also 2a protests at the same time, then we loosened restrictions a couple weeks ago.  Surprise! We now have our first true spike building. 

I'm also curious.  I've gotten pretty settled on a triple trumpet of some sort as my next bike (although a local barbershop owner has his lightly customized old Bonnie for sale on his shop floor and it's effing gorgeous). 

I always give jags a little bump just for being a jag. I know they're frequently shitty, often underperforming, and sometime downright ugly... But they're always a Jag. 

They drive a jag.  I can guarantee they also put the word "philanderer" on their dating profile. :p

I think the general counter argument is that there may be a problem with reducing car fatalities by 30% if it increases pedestrian fatalities by 10% (or some other arbitrary number). 

We used to have a couple of real old oak trees in the front yard up in New England. We called them the “drunk catchers” due to the bar up the road. Caught one headed for the living room maybe once every 2 months.

My closest was a few hundred pound of decorative pavers in the trunk of a mustang.

It’d be much easier on us, in a way, if it was ALL cops, as we wouldn't need to be concerned about the morality of tossing them all on the street (or whatever worse fate you have in mind).  Our local department has been blocking traffic for unscheduled marchers, saluting them in solidarity, the chief came out of hq to…

I *believe* most departments are set up to where certain officer who are essentially designated interceptors get high speed training.  Around here, they're the ones who get to drive the G8 cop cars.  Maybe not most departments, but at least some.  It's still possible that even with the training, they still don't get…

Our local major town has had ZERO problems in its 4 days of protests. The local police directing traffic throw their fists up with the protestors, the local police chief met with the March on hq steps and spoke of her support for their grievance. When the March took to the highway, the cops simply drove up and blocked…

If they were needed elsewhere, they wouldn’t have been driving through a suburban protest to begin with. It wasn’t a surprise to the department.

According to the first amendment, the right to assembly is guaranteed.  So no, cities like to say they require permits, but no such permit is required according to the bloody constitution we all love so much.  Except those cops that are beating and arresting journalists and peaceful protestors.
