You forgot time of day and type of riders. Taxi drivers often have to deal with drunks at 2 am. I think that increases risk a bit.

Citizens policed themselves which often resulted in 'certain types' of people being invited to neck tie parties.

The Republicans are already working on that.

"In that respect, sheer size begets evil deeds for some reason."

I have a corporation and so before creating it I studied some aspects of the corporate structure before creating it. That and observation has brought me to the conclusion that there are two factors, at least in the US, which turn corporations into sociopaths:
1) The only real mandate they have is to funnel money to the stockholders, and in this day in age the most powerful stock holders are the CEOs and BODs
2) Avoidance of responsibility is enshrined in the corporate charter model law. Showing that the CEO and BOD are responsible for corporate dysfunction, which often leads to people dying, is nigh on impossible. Esp. when corporate assets can be used to defend the CEO and BOD.

Until that is fixed corporate evil is almost a given.

But it is still wrong.

How about if you must take those classes to graduate and so must have contact with the instructor and deal with unwanted advances? Any instructor that does that is wrong.

Anecdii?

A lot of these guys get caught because they open their yaps. A lot of us old timers from the early days never got caught. When the 414's were taken down I know several people that avoided it simply because they actually listened to the "trust no one" mantra. Just like how the guys that took over WTTW never got caught because they did NOT open their big fat mouths.

So a tip from someone old..... earning "cred" is for noobs. Keep your mouth shut and you really reduce the risk of getting caught.

Have you ever seen a car? Tires are silent? that is completely insane.

only if the engine is designed for back pressure. you can get all you need from a sharp transition from head exhaust port to header.

There is a reason that top fuel dragsters have almost zero back pressure and open short straight pipes.

It sounds like crap. nobody wants to buy a Mustang or a F150 that sounds like a honda civic.

I would say Dixiecrats, who have long since fled to the Republican Party. The TEA party are their intellectual heirs, IMO.

They have lynched, raped, blown up churches, intimidated etc. Why are they not considered a terrorist organization?

I would call it terrorism.

It only sucks to the inane people. There are several huge technical communities over that they have a massively lower noise to signal ratio. If you want to talk tech and not cat photos, G+ is where it's at.

The Sport Touring community on G+ destroys the one on FB.
