“Has YOUR car recently been engulfed in flames and rammed with a Subaru??? Come to the collision experts at CrashChampions!”

I love Oakland but then stupid shit like this happens on a semi-regular basis and the police department seem useless to stop it. The Oakland police department is literally just a half dozen city blocks from this. The response should have been nearly immediate.
 
Secondly, to add to the stupidity, do the people whom are…

I would probably just not take my family to these types of events.

I saw that too and thought “well, there’s my dose of irony for the day...”

Sigh. This is the kind of shit that’s really ruining car culture for the rest of us.

That’s not a riot, that’s a failure of civic institution (or a success of systematic disenfranchisement I suppose.) I would argue riots have ostensible political causes or goals. This is what it looks like when communities and their constituent families don’t have time or money to raise kids, nor institutions to…

Why doesn’t the airbag deploy in that Subaru? Special “Street Takeover” edition Outback?

I would love to see the cops do this: after the takeover happens, cops surround and block in all participants, then call in an army of tow trucks. Then make a “terribly inconvenient” series of “paperwork mistakes” that extend the time in impound.

I’m not the biggest fan of cops using tear gas willy nilly, but this seems to be a very good time to break it out. Block off the surrounding intersections, and move in.

In Minneapolis this was classified as “mostly peaceful protesting.”

Hell of an ad for this business though:

That’s not a street takeover, that’s a riot. 

Articles like this need to lead with how many people were arrested.

There is such a lack of empathy and kindness in the world we are living, this is truly sad. I am not an expert neither did I study about this topic but a lot of people just seem to not care anymore about others, I am not sure why.

Any of the specials. They are fantastic. 

The entire Vietnam episode.  That was the peak and everything since has been chasing that high.

Lots of celebrity men recommend books mainly 1 book the BIBLE but still thats probably one of the most popular ones

Alot of YA (which is what it’s all about) storytelling for boys was supplanted with long form narrative videogames over the last several years/ few decades. From a literary viewpoint, young men seem derive more benefit from journaling (or commenting as this site seems to demonstrate) but I agree that there’s a lot to…

I read the same way I go shopping: I do it frequently, I just don’t feel the need to join an entire fucking club for some reason.

You don’t need to join a book club to read a book. I fact, I’d rather not.
