    Driving a car is a license to kill… Same with the gun.

    Somehow these two things remove any personal responsibility from the perps.

    There is a lesson in there about race btw

      If that’s the case, I dunno from which third world hellhole you come from. In civilized countries, you’re facing big boy penalties if you injure someone while driving.

        The United States is a first-world hellhole, thankyouverymuch!

        And it will 100% remain so no matter what happens, except maybe if Trump takes over – not because of him fucking up the country, but because of him withdrawing us from NATO.

        In Germany we say “If you want to murder someone, do it with a car”. It’s infuriating how car drivers get away with it or get incredibly light sentences for maiming or killing people by using a car here.
