Oh my god thank you for this, I posted that comment and then never got back to my computer to check Jalopnik due to work stuff. This made an entirely too shitty day WAY better.

Years before 9/11 I traveled to NYC, and decided to take some pictures of a local parade. I had no press pass, nothing, and I just started clicking frames. A cop pinned me to a wall after squirting off about 10 pictures.

One the one hand I fucking hate the NYPD.

Whenever anyone complains about traffic enforcement being about revenue enhancement I cannot wish enough ill will on them strongly or quickly enough

I fucking hate california so much. Anywhere else and cops would mind their own damn business.

Actually, most likely someone never submitted the green form environmental impact statement in triplicate for getting out of bed that morning, paid the appropriate carbon credits and evironmental pollution fees, and failed to bribe the right people the appropriate amount to gain the required permit to operate said…

Mmmmmmm, Audi Quattro. Easily the runner up for hrrrrrnnnnnggggghhhnm.

Only when it comes to things they don’t like such as guns, business regulations, the environment, etc. As far as the inane laws and organziations meant to control as much of your lives as possible because government always knows better than you and you should be thankful for what you get from the government, oh they…

Because California is an authoritarian wasteland that apparently has a lot of people who need authority to have control over people’s lives.

This is the oppressive State that CA has become. Left to their own devices, they will consume the populace with Governmental power. Here is a prime example...

As a citizen of CA I can confirm that DUI can be from anything - the I stands for Influence (Caffeine, drugs, emotion, etc).

That’s the government for you.

What’s amazing is you can take blood from a person for no reason other than suspicion.

Put me on the jury. Five seconds after we retire for the verdict, we’ll have it. Not guilty to the tenth power.

How many of those executives have had any say whatsoever in not investing in crossovers?

You should’ve taken a video so Cookie Monster would be dancing in your response too.

“Otherwise I’m not sure what that paragraph is trying to say.”

Common theme when it comes to this Ballaban character.
