When the little kid jumps out at the end, I laughed, even though I knew what to expect.

DENNIIIISSSSS!!!!

That's not bad driving for a little guy.

Adding video to channels (Law) - requested by MrFisk.

Any kid this desperate to avoid church in Salt Lake City is definitely a future sifter

Title and description are overkill...

"Kid steals car to avoid church" would be more accurate and probably get more views.

Horrible title. High speed? The fastest it looks like they were going is 50, and that's only at the end on an empty road. Average speed was 20mph - 35mph. Fascist? How so? Oh right, just for a catchy title. The cop at the end isn't even chasing the kid (since he appears to run in to his home). I like the video, but I hate the submission.

"Investigators say the boy is too young to charge with a crime. They just hope his parents keep a closer eye on him. "

Damn those cops for chasing a car that's running stop signs and driving erratically!

Edit (again): Not sure if your title/comment was just tongue-in-cheek. In which case, I overreacted.

Ten bucks says his parents will misconstrue this as indicating a lack of Jesus-juice in him and will probably arrange for private visits with the priest or something.

WOW Id say that young man drives better than some adults!

Oh I see what you did there with the title and the description and the Maaaavin flaaaavin... Waaay.

I could see a number of the people on the sift calling the cop fascist though, they seem to think that any cop doing bloody anything is The Man getting Down on innocent citizens.

Bah and humbug

I laughed my ASS OFF when I saw that door fly open and that little midget goes scurrying away!

But seriously, TRBM? Fascist? Beating and Tasering? Wtf? No vote until you fix that shit.

Fascism doesn't work like that. By definition, you need a mass movement, as opposed to a few cops.

i don't give a shit what the title and description say...that's some funny fuckin shit right there

It was/is very tongue in cheek.

Title sucks.

How about, "Man fleeing cops drives so fast he goes back in time.".

Not only am I impressed with how well that kid drives, but even more so that he knew his way home.

i think there's a scratch on your record

Of course the title was an attempted joke. That doesn't make it a good title, but imo it does remove it from being vote-worthy.

YES.

The title should have been this.

I laughed out loud at the kid bailing at the end. Looks like he even managed to get the thing in park!

Even so, I know it's a silly thing to get all Principles on, but I'm reserving my upvote for when the comment and description are changed. I get the joke, I just think it's unfunny.

Geez Louise, people. I love you all, but you seem really cranky whiney about the title and description. Kind of like a bunch of fundie christians when somebody makes fun of their (fictitious) lord. If Jesus Christ himself can take a joke, so can some silly cops.

Vote or don't vote, it doesn't make any difference- it's just another video. The title and description stay. If I changed it now, this fantastic thread wouldn't make sense any more!

If the kid came from a rural setting that could explain his good driving. We drove at a really young age to feed cows so maybe that little guy did to. I always thought fighting with my brother was the easiest way to get out of church...even if it lead to a beating.

Wow. They drive that damn far to go to church? There are at least three churches within a mile of my house. I attend none of them, but really, driving that far is an awful waste of gas and effort just to sit there and be bored out of your mind while the established brainwashing machine works to ensure your devotion to madness.

But seriously, it has to be said: That 7-year-old drives better than most women/elderly/asians!</fascist>

He has the future of a race car driver ahead of him!

I give my vote SOLELY for the title and and description.

But I suppose the beating and tasering is off-camera, yes..?

I never could figure out why the inconsistency in mens rea in the US. Oh well, rather funny to see none the less. I'd personally say that if a kid(no matter the age) is stealing a car to avoid going to church, there's some deeper social problems that need to be dealt with.

Tags for this video have been changed from 'hi, speed, chase, utah, seven, years, old' to 'low, speed, chase, utah, seven, years, old, Preston Scarbrough' - edited by MycroftHomlz

The description is completely wrong. The kid was on the today show for dag's sake.

The title is hilarious. Very topical because of the "fascist cop" video that was promoted yesterday. Though I guess if you didn't see that you wouldn't get the reference.

Tongue is very obviously planted firmly in cheek.

Dangit. I softened my position and upvoted so that I could justify a little tribute, only to be foiled because I wasn't cynical enough to realize I had a dupe.

I understand the title and description were intended as a joke about our oversifting of abusive cop videos. But still it's irritating since you can only discover that by doing research into it.

Not that the description seemed plausible. But what is plausible on the internet is that the poster is a paranoid misinformed libertarian or a troll. Most commentors seemed to assume that.
