Although the article makes some good points, I think it misses a lot of others and ends up feeling more pro-Apple than was maybe intended.

Hackers, who can destroy hundreds of peoples lives without them even knowing it’s happening... Yeah why would we want them in jail forever?

Looking through your posts, it would appear the wastes of society is you.

Fucking brits.......another example of coddling the wastes of society..

It’s almost like the rest of the civilized world thinks the USA is not so civilized.

Having studied law in the UK, I have come to learn that no, UK prisons are not as bad, or “medieval” in comparison, but they are definitely close when you compare them to most developed nations. I’m not making a value judgment on whether that is a good, or bad thing, it’s a prison, they aren’t supposed to be great…

“holds dual citizenship in the UK and Finland but resides in Britain”

I thought Jeeps were for off-roading. Land Rover has the same problem selling FWD Range Rover Evoque in some markets that can’t ‘rove the range.’

I don’t care what anyone says, this is the greatest time to be a car enthusiast. Right now. It has never been as good as this. The amount of variety, performance and luxury available is absolutely incredible. 800+hp Challengers. 700+hp Grand Cherokees. 700+hp Shelby Mustangs. 700+hp Corvettes. All with factory…

So many people didn’t bother reading my follow-up right below my original comment. I didn’t realize he was doing 90 over.

In my mind, he overcooked the corner on a spirited drive, lost control and hit a tree. THAT doesn’t seem to fit the punishment. At 90 over, it does.

I live and work near Worcester - I see that shit on my RT 9 commute DAILY. I’m never shy about telling someone to put their phone down. Hell most of these idiots don’t even try to hide it. I’ve knocked on quite a few windows while on my motorcycle and told people to put their phone down.

Heh, I just commented almost this exact thing in the thread above. If the judge is basing the punishment on the outcome (which it seems he is) then we need to up the punishment for crashing while texting and driving. If he is basing it on doing 90 over, then lets see all of the people who are caught doing that in…

I think we will see a turn soon, more and more people will be made an example of for reckless or distracted driving. I watched a woman next to me as I was commuting west on I-90 from boston after work with her huge phone mounted on the dash and she was watching the news.

All y’all saying that the age of consent is 16 have no idea what you’re talking about. A minor is a minor, and laws about corrupting/harming/endangering a minor swing into full effect.

The guy clearly made an awful mistake, and will pay a heavy price. I get that. But I do think there is a measure here of disproportionate sentencing.

Goddamn... I’ve gone that fast on public roads before TBH. but never near anyone and never around a turn. Still seems a bit harsh punishment wise. He didn’t hurt anyone other than him and the girl. And didnt destroy any property but his own.

Kristen, do you even like cars? Or is this just a paycheck for you? Who fucking cares about the inconsequential auto show swag. No body here cares you didn’t get one or that someone is selling chintzy free shit on ebay. We care about hearing about cars. This isn’t about cars. This is about you and the seller being…

I just google-mapped this Auburn Greens, and I notice that it’s all 4-plexes. The HOA is basically the landlords’ association. The tenants obviously have zero say in anything. Of course the HOA is not going to give a darn about the residents’ dignity or privacy.

What’s making it a “pain in the ass” to deal with? I’m genuinely curious to hear how this could be a bother. It’s not like he’s warming up his Cummins at 5 AM, or putting up obnoxiously bright Christmas lights in November. It also seems like street parking isn’t an issue there, considering there are tons of empty…

Fuck that. You rented it. You made the tradition.
