Go on tangents much??? What do taxes have to do with illegal street racing?


Whenever you DRIVE down a public street with other people on it, there are tons of crap that can go wrong. YOUR statement is wrong, because if you are racing it doesn't just magically make it dangerous, where there was no risk before.
Dude, you live in a parallel universe where common sense doesn't seem to thrive. Whatever. If you think for a minute that you guys street racing down ANY PUBLIC street doesn't exponentially expose both YOU AND INNOCENT people that may be on the same road......then you and I have nothing further to discuss.

Bottomline is that everyone one of US, notice I said US, needs to own up to the FACT that when we engage in this type of activity that it very well could end up hurting INNOCENT people that are merely driving by.

And yes, I have coverage on my car if I am speeding, run a redlight, talk on my cell phone, get a BJ, or read a book while driving. If I go to a drag strip and wear all of my safety equipment, then hit a oil spot on the track that sends my car careening into the wall....then no, it's not covered.
Name 1 track that let's oil spills sit on the track.


Also, I don't race my car on dark streets behind a warehouse.
No? Then I guess you race down well light, ie. well traveled, streets then?



You are taking a situation with a GIGANTIC gray area and making it very black and white. The problem I have with this, is that society focuses on the wrong things that endager people. We harp and harp and harp on how "safe" it is to follow traffic laws, but there is no punishment for being a fucking RETARD. And that is really the issue, more than speeding or racing, or whatever else.
While I agree with you to a certain degree, what we are talking about here is different. Example: The BIGGEST RETARD ON IA, i.e. Thacker the bragger, didn't think his all mighty chariot could ever lose a race let alone fly over a curb at 100 mph and end up in a ditch. But both DID happen......right or wrong? So therefore, even RETARDS don't think it can happen to them yet it does. Hence why there are rules that wouldn't apply to you or I, yet are needed for RETARDS like Thacker. Follow me?
