But by saying "safety features" you're talking about anything from the above to seat belts, proper lighting, anti-lock brakes and traction control. Those features save lives.

The key here is public education campaigns backed up with better enforcement. Not freaking out about "the nanny state" or "my freedomz" or whatever bullshit you heard on am radio.

Cars should have fewer safety features? So you want more people to die?

I feel really bad for the family members. One kid escaped to write a book about it, and it's basically a physically and mentally abusive cult run by the father. It's really a fucking sad situation.

Oh shit, here comes Maldonado!

It takes a few races to understand what exactly is going on, and to find a team/driver to root for.

Of course a car with no restrictions will be faster than a car with restrictions. Apply the same safety and fueling rules to those 70's cars and you'll see a completely different beast.

It's not that difficult to understand, and most commentators make a great effort to educate fans.

There's a huge difference between a leader and this asshole.

The Speed team is great. BBC isn't terrible, but I feel like the Speed folks aren't afraid to dive into the deep technical stuff. I really hope a few of those guys are carried over to NBC.

DON'T FORGET TO WATCH QUALIFYING!

It could be a combination of any/all of the following:

That's incredibly badass.

"Fat acceptance" means treating a fat person like a human being, not with holding medical advice. I don't understand why this is so hard to understand.

No, you missed the point completely. It's about overweight people getting upset when their weight gets in the way of receiving actual healthcare. The example of going into the doctor for a cold and being told to drop a few pounds is apt. Did you miss it by chance?

I am so sick and fucking tired of cars being painted the same color as the surface they will likely be driven on.

See, it's great that you give that advice, but good luck trying to get that message past all the others trying to make a buck off of bullshit.

I wish you'd quit assuming that when an overweight person hears advice about their weight that they automatically get offended or refuse to listen.

Have you ever walked through a large book store, down the "health and wellness" aisle? Have you ever looked for good, reasonable information about health on the internet? For every nugget of decent info there are mountains and mountains of bullshit. People selling this diet or that supplement or this exercise plan or…

This isn't a post about "the other side", this is a completely different situation. We get that your wife is trying to be respectful and I'm glad that folks like her are out there. Articles like this aren't about your wife, and there isn't some fine line between "telling your patient what they need to know to be…
