Yeah like those people who vote to keep immigrants out and then find out they need to clean their own shit out of the toilet.

You keep saying that...until the Muslims become numerous enough to start enacting and enforcing sharia law....

There's already swaths of area, neighborhoods that are growing in France and Great Britain that are so ethnic that it is dangerous for cops or non-Muslims to tread in those areas.

It's a disease that is spreading,...you're losing your culture and eventually your countries if you don't do something.

It's not bigotry, it's self preservation at this point.

Why is it never the Republicans who have to appeal to moderates?

These days...especially lately, the Democrats have pulled SO FAR left, that the majority of Republicans ARE the moderates.....

I mean it was getting bad but when you add the DSA on top, the Dems are waaaaay of base to the left, enough to make almost anyone look 'moderate'.

Can you back your car up on a skinny dirt road on the face of a cliff with complete assurance? I know 2 people who have killed a child while backing up. Children don't stay in one place like statues. They wish they had cameras in the back.

I've been driving for about 40+ odd years.....never had a car with a reverse camera.

So far, it isn't been a problem I've run into (no pun intended).

I've been IN some cars that have them, driving...and well, I really don't use them then either...I'm so used to actually turning around and looking BACK while reversing to stare forward at a screen.

A lot of cars now have features where they lower the fan speed on the HVAC system when a call comes in. They also override it for alerts from the car (like when it's trying to warn you that you're going to hit a pedestrian because the car is momentarily pointed at them on a slight curve, and even though they are on a sidewalk with a raised curb and everything). They can always find some reason that a feature might need that kind of control.

I do NOT need or want those features.

I wish to control as much as possible manually on my car and do not want it doing stupid piddly shit like that....turn fan down for call?

When it's this fucking HOT, I will willingly talk louder or tell the idiot calling me I'll call back later when I'm NOT DRIVING anymore......you know?

You should be eating the plants directly vs. converting an animal into human food which is inefficient and environmentally destructive.

Somehow I don't see low and slow smoking beets and turnings on my log burning offset smoker is going to give me quite the same thrill and pleasure as briskets, pork shoulders and ribs....

Frankly , I've always cooked for fun and flavor, never efficiency....who cooks for efficiency, except those that dont' have functioning taste buds maybe?

The question is - what about brown-skinned people or people with a "funny accent" who are eligible to vote

Then you have nothing to worry about.

If approached, comply...calmly, present your credentials, don't run, don't fight back, etc.

Pretty much like any other interaction with the authorities if you aren't a wanted criminal.
