Came here for this. Weekend editor can’t don’t math good.

Civil forfeiture should nauseate every last person familiar with the concept. Yes, it disproportionately targets and affects minorities and the poor, but even beyond that, it’s a quintessential violation of due process. The burden of proof is basically nonexistent. Recourse and a defense are not guaranteed, and it…

Agreed. Username being extremely relevant, motorcycles are my real love in the internal combustion world. But there is no match to Jalopnik for motorcycle people that I’ve found, so I’m here every day for my articles on things that go vroom, and every couple of weeks there’s a Lanesplitter post for me.

“This [car reveal] looks like [completely different car that looks nothing alike] just look at the [generic car part] that’s totally a ripoff from [favorite manufacturer that just started that styling trait last year] what a piece of shit company ugliest turd ever” click argue reasonably click argue less reasonably…

Except when Miata is always the answer...

Don’t get me started on them. It’s always “brown manual diesel wagon or GTFO!”

What about the people of Jalopnik ?

My understanding is that a stock exhaust is legal, as the manufacturer had to get it certified in that manner. My Fiero got pulled over back in the day for being too loud (Yes, laugh it up), but I pointed out to the officer that absolutely every single part of the exhaust - from header to tailpipe - was completely…

Yeah, sure.

Her response is the one that is conditioned into women from birth: give them a chance to do better. Sick of that shit. One and done, people.

The town laws are usually 50-200ft which is bullshit. I can hear anything from 50ft away. Hell stock Abarths are loud.

Breaking News: Payne receives Medal of Honor from President Trump.

I disagree with this. Intervention by a third party would have escalated the situation in unpredictable ways (especially if the intervening party happened not to be white). It would get you arrested at best, killed by a hyper-paranoid, power-tripping, gun-carrying nutcase with the law on his side at worst.

I hate that you’re likely right. In our society, nurse Wubbles is most likely to get the result of the department taking appropriate action by suing over Detective Payne’s conduct. I share your doubt that any internal investigation will have teeth to change his behavior in the future, but a sizable settlement payment…

Everyone who didn’t try to intervene should be fired too. Why did they let this happen? Like that security guy talking on his phone - what about doing your job? You’re witnessing a nurse on the hospital you work for getting assaulted!

As-fucking-if.

Once Payne and his superior who pushed him are fired and unable to find another job, then I’ll believe in that “goodness of society”.

Yup, those V10s are LOUD, but there’s a slightly subdued quality to them compared to anything like a Supra with straight pipes.

If they are from the factory, you should be ok... unless you stay for half an hour revving, just under the windows of someone else’s grandma.
