I am American-born and white as Wonder Bread, and I still flinch every time I see a squad car of any kind. I guess everyone has forgotten that a large portion of good policing is knowing who the hell to leave alone.

First time I was pulled over I was picked out of a pack of cars and by the end of the stop I had a gun pointed to my head for fumbling to get my wallet out.
I’m guessing with $17 Billion to burn, they need to travel a little further out. “Spread out, boys! We’ve got brown people to arrest!” - Border Patrol, probably.
No surprise. Courts are willing to defer to basically anything police say constitutes “suspicious” behavior that justifies a stop. If you look at police, that’s suspicious. If you avoid looking at police, that’s suspicious. If you are driving a clean vehicle, and are driving carefully, that’s suspicious…
What a surprise.
Racial profiling and being thinned skinned assholes, gotta love the border patrol. I wonder how many of them also think they are the punisher
Neutral: My wife and both volunteered several days at our local vaccine clinic and got our first shots a couple weeks ago. Our second shots are next week. We were super excited to feel safer when we were out in public but then, of course, multiple mass freedomings happened over the past week. So “just when you thought…
Having no money is extremely expensive.
The US inflation rate is actually normal to lower than average and is trending down.
1st: This is Jalopnik, no one here buys new cars.
That’s not how NPOND works at all.
SEMA show cars are some of the most overpriced crap.
I saw the title and immediately thought “Either there’s a lot less Accord under the skin than meets the eye or someone hit the “9" key an extra time by accident.
It’s a bit amusing, but to own and drive this, you need to be in on the joke. Unfortunately, the nearly $30k asking price is a far bigger joke.
So, this is pretty obviously meant to be a show car, and absolutely nothing else (it doesn’t even have seatbelts or headrests). Which makes me think: how do you even begin to value a show car? The fact that it’s a 1997 Accord isn’t doing it any favors. The rarity of the wagon bodystyle is the only thing it has going…
It’s clean, it’s a somewhat interesting show car, but you know what it isn’t? Worth $30k.
Who is voting NP on this? WHO? Banish them!
