26 (uk: yorkshire) is really, really bad. In fact most of the regional uk ones are really bad.

The country based ones seemed pretty good to me, anyhow.

hit the nail on the head pretty much. I like most his movies, but he's not coming out of this interview well.

I personally find his attitude pretty childish. He reminds me of a scumbag politician who sidesteps answering a serious question because he's worried about what impact it could have on his career later. He could have given a succinct and mature answer and moved on, but no, he raves for almost 3 minutes and turns it into a narcissistic power trip. If he was a leader he would have had the courage to defend his point of view by giving a fucking answer.

not convinced this is real. mainly due the speed it crushes (like a crisp packet - never even seen a bottle of water made that flimsy), and as bryce said, you'd expect a little residue afterwards.

How to Unlock your Car in 10 Seconds

sirex says...

That sucks, but I guess it makes sense. Generally, avoid through roads, anything which has footpaths which cut between roads, or areas which back onto open area like railways and playing fields.

In my opinion, the best you can generally get is a dead end steet / cul-de-sac. Thieves generally aren't fond of them as you have to leave the same way you came in, and cruising them for potential targets looks overly suspicious.

It is the only strait cut through from one road to another so people cutting through see the car all the time. "Oh look we can do something and be miles away before the owners get outside"

When a person says something like "they can defend themselves against oppressive government" as a reason for gun ownership, you know they're a nutter.

...As if some stay-puff monster with "Mr. government" is going to roll down the streets and you're going to spontaneously gather a makeshift dad's army of rednecks to thwart it.

fwiw, I also find it pretty amusing of the argument that americans should be so proud of the strength of their democracy, holding it up as the benchmark by which all others are to be judged, while at the same time so scared that their government might turn tin-despot dictatorship at any moment.

Also, do people not find the notion terrifying that its got to the point that an argument is being seriously tabled that the only way to stay safe is to have at least one person carrying a gun whenever people gather, just in case someone rolls in deciding to waste everyone in the place ? Isn't that the very definition of addressing the symptoms, not the cause ?

Lastly, as an aside. Yes, cars are dangerous and when you allow anyone to drive a lot of them drive like crap and think it's ok to drive high or drunk. It's almost as if we should work on removing humans from the equation. Oh, we are.

I think your issue is you're expecting a balanced argument to be made within one sentence. Sure every sentence is biased, it's how to use them that makes a fair argument.

If we live in a world where media only allow people 5 seconds to speak, don't expect anything but arguments.

If anyone disagrees, I challenge them to write a single sentence free from bias. It's impossible. I hope someone tries.
