Comment Passing a school bus is no joke in Texas (Score -1) 86

A school bus, with the red lights flashing, may NOT be passed on either side. This is to prevent children from being run over. Texas cops are quick to fine anyone who does, and it's hammered into your head in Drivers Ed.

In some states it's not a big deal, and so many of those people moved to Texas to get away from their states, only to turn Texas into what they hated. They don't learn.

It's actually nothing new.

I can recall back to Nixon where the same suspects used the same type of language for him and every R afterwards. There is absolutely nothing special or different how they see or talk about Trump.

It is -exactly- the same as how they have talked about -every- Republican and conservative for 50+ years. The only thing that changes is the name.

After Trump is dead they'll use the same language for JDV or whoever had an R next to their name. The person is just a place holder for their mindless hate.

It took years for dumb western execs and politicians to send manufacturing to China.

It'll take years to bring it back.

China didn't magically just know how to build stuff. They were rice farmers. We taught them. We're not incapable of training the next generation.

Start by ending the free money for healthy job capable adults in the West. They'll find something useful to do instead of smoking out and having more government funded children.

Mine isn't multiplexed so it can't talk over CAN Bus - you know because if you flip the turn signal switch, it turns on immediately vs waiting for the body control module to graciously do its thing. Also, if you use the signal momentarily, it doesn't automatically blink 3 times - you can even use the lever to blink out patterns.

Also, I do -NOT- want my car's HVAC to be touchscreened. Good 'ol dials for me, yes SIR, none of that new fangled stuff.
