Honestly, some of these already exist. For example, Jaguar/Land Rover has been doing this for years. The AJ series of motors from these last few years were all originally based on the V8. That supercharged V6? Yeah, it’s the V8 but with two cylinders missing - the block is the same length and size. In fact, it costs…

Good Lord, the paying for the ad free experience is already on the way, it has to be.  I got goosebumps when I read that one.  

Is this the funniest AOTD? It’s gotta be up there.
It’s also the most terrifying AOTD!I hope no manufacturers ever see this...

What about an EV battery that locks you out of some of the available range in your battery unless you pay extra?

BMW is already beginning to charge for heated seats. Welcome to hell.

You mean a radio?

Cops didn’t kill anyone. The driver of the stolen car tried to avoid spike strips and crashed into someone. 

Why would I nuke the town?

Cool, so it sounds like you have a workable policy for what pursuits should look like, their threshold of acceptability, and how you would account for missed opportunities to apprehend person’s of interest. 

Strongly agree. Then criminals may have killed a person and that would be horrible. This way the cops killed a person and we all know that’s totally fine. 

So if the cops never pursued the car, and the suspect went on to rob more people at gunpoint, and possibly shot and killed one or more people in the process, I’m assuming you would agree that “it is unfortunate that those people had to die, but at least there was no police chase!” Right?

And now they’ve found that BLM-supporter terrorist’s vile, racist tweets and facebook posts:

He had Trump-hate, BLM-radicalisation material on his social media, and he even had a write-up there of how to mow down people with your car and get away with it.

“..In no situation (out of desperation or hatred) is it OK to sacrifice human life...”

Being compassionate and loving in this case means finding a judge to appreciate that a woman-beating POS belongs in jail, not out on chump-change bail. But this is America and such beings are thin on the ground, so here we are.

If it was him I hope he gets the chair. The judge who let him out on a $1,000 cash bond should be stripped of their title and disbarred. This is a cascade of failures leading to a senseless loss of life. 

Nobody pushes someone into driving down a parade route. This is such hot garbage. If the suspect had any shred of decency, he would have stopped before hitting anyone, not continued driving after hitting person after person. 

Never let the facts get in the way of a good story. 

“for those looking to keep score based on political persuasion and such.”

You imagine the dude was going to be doing a lot of knife fighting while he was driving his car home?
