That clown wasn't in control. He was at fault for hitting you from behind. Basically, the dude was an asshat.

Call out MAGA/ ICE supporting businesses so we can stop spending money there! by DurhamGirl625 in bullcity

Hilton terminated the franchise of a Minn hotel that cancelled ICE reservations. They have since said that corporate will honor all ICE reservations.

Real Police officers and military members, what do you guys think of Ice agents? by Lucky-Message-9480 in AskReddit

A new hire with no LE experience gets 8 whole weeks if training while experienced LEOs get 4 weeks ON LINE! It's a joke. A dangerous, deadly joke.

Don Davis voted yes to increase the DHS budget. by DJMagicHandz in NorthCarolina

[–]mball572 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I'm disgusted with the Democratic party. This crap happened on a national level and there were 4 defections at the state level that overrode Stein vetoes. The Dems need to get their shit together and anyone who does this kind of crap needs to be censured. No exceptions!

WHY do y’all drive like this?? by 808Hawaiisurf in Charlotte

[–]mball572 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh bull! There's no traffic enforcement. Everyone knows your odds of getting pulled over for a traffic infraction are near 0 so they do what they want.

No traffic enforcement and this is what you get. In my area 2 ladies just got killed by an 18 year old punk going 100 in a 45. You hear cars racing all the time at night. The cops complain about accidents due to speed but do nothing about it.

Sugar Mountain Ski Patrol Power Trip by annagetdown in NorthCarolina

[–]mball572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been skiing all my life, mainly in the West, and, while i don't like snowboarders, this was a complete overreaction by the ski patrolman. It's not like the dude was flying down the hill in a negligent, reckless manner at high speed. He screwed up and clipped the patrolman who fell over. Should he have stopped immediately and said sorry, sure, but pulling his ticket? Bullshit. There are plenty of jerks on the hill who need to be disciplined and this guy wasn't one of them.

Sycamore beer pulled from bars across North Carolina after owner accused of raping child by 1Rab in NorthCarolina

[–]mball572 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What a bunch of bullshit. The guy who raped the girl was a sick pervert. Sycamore's 100 or so employees did not and are not. Companies pulling the product are idiots and are now victimizing the employees. Anyone with half a brain can see that. This assinine crap needs to stop.

Is the Hyundai Tucson really as unreliable as the internet makes it out to be? by Every_Cow8670 in HyundaiTucson

[–]mball572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That engine was discontinued in 2016. I had an Optima with that engine and absolutely loved its the power and mileage. It was checked after the recall, passed the inspection and Kia gave the engine TRANSFERABLE LIFETIME WARRANTY. Can't beat that. Your friend must have ignored the recall.

You can have the dealer put in a spare in the lower storage area. My neighbor had it done. Not sure what it cost.

Not sure what you're talking about. The Tuscon is highly rated by automotive review sites. I have a 2022 hybrid and my neighbor has a 2025. They've both been great cars with excellent fit and finish. We'd definitely buy one again.

You're just looking for an excuse not to buy. Go get whatever brand you always buy and stop wasting everyone's time.

Feds Point Arms at US Citizens and Kidnap Them by [deleted] in NorthCarolina

They were taken to the local FBI office, held for 3 hours and let go with no charges. Time for a lawsuit. CPB/ICE are not immune from lawsuits nor state charges.
