I agree, many in the comments here blame the driver and passenger and no one is really asking why do we have these checkpoints in the first place? Are these checkpoints proven to work? Are our tax dollars and resources getting a reasonable return on investment to stop every day citizens miles from the border to ask…

As someone who commutes to NYC on a regular basis, I would like to see NYPD officers (and whatever they call those unarmed meter maid-like folks who are supposed to be directing traffic but just sit there instead) actually pay attention to traffic and active safety threats that occur on a regular (almost every traffic…

When your entire argument is about fair enforcement of the rules, showing perceived examples of unfair enforcement isn’t whataboutism.

If that’s the case, the BMV should simply say, “Thanks for making us aware, we are revoking those too.” but it doesn’t say anything like that has happened, thus it’s not exactly ridiculous to assume that those plates are still out there despite being brought to the BMV’s attention. So... not whataboutism at all.

Yeah, that 100mi from the border covers something crazy like 2/3 of the national population.

The amount of discretionary police power given to CBP in that rather arbitrary 100 miles from the border limit is frightening. I live close to the border in Washington, and things here tend to be pretty mellow compared to other places, but the presence is always felt, and I’m told that folks in the Latino community…

They don’t even know why they hate him, either. Biden is about as middle of the road as they come. But the white wing media and the treasonous crowd has told them, repeatedly and for years, to hate Biden. So they do. Ask them why and it’s just a sputtering bunch of nonsense.

I feel bad for anyone who lives their life this way, waking up thinking of ways they can stick it to whoever is on the opposite side of the spectrum.  Great way to go through life.

When your entire pathetic identity is about bashing a president you don’t like..

Wonser and his lawyer are playing the whataboutism card essentially saying the Bureau picks and chooses what plates it what’s to approve. His suit points to examples of vanity plate phrase approvals like “FDT” and “FU TRMP.”

Pontiac actually had an identity until the day it died,

But at any time Elon could get his panties in a knot and start interfering. And that has to be a risk.

Not to be pedantic, but this construction can also be used as couching language to call out actually bad things, e.g. “not to be anticapitalist, but”. It’s more about being responsive to an audience’s perceived biases/beliefs.

Just a few days ago, up in Albany, some moron driving an ATV on a pedestrian path hit a student, and now she’s in the hospital in a coma with a TBI. Alexa Kropf, University at Albany student from Floral Park, in medically induced coma after hit-and-run - Newsday

I’m normally on the ACAB side, but I’m really struggling to be displeased with what the cop did here.

The bench seats are not certified as meeting Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards

How did this dumbass even become a Deputy Commissioner? These morons who work in public capacity and earning hundreds of thousands of dollars should be publicly called out for stupid shit like this. Not in twitter comments, but on actual live television. Next time he’s on air, journalists need to ask him to explain…

To the NYPD and Mayor Adams:

can’t wait to try out the new i4iM70i

HP lets me down every day at work, it should be no surprise they let me down here.
