Look here, fucker!

Can't we all just agree that street racing, in its primary definition (a bunch of jackasses running on public streets) is illegal, dangerous, and sophomoric at best. Like Nick keeps saying, being hypocritical doesn't change an argument. I may speed, I may go around corners fast, but I'm always alone. It's never a contest with another person; that ego, that focus on "winning" is what kills innocent people. If I'm a hypocrite, I can live with that, but I won't stand for someone trying to justify some moronic late-night dick-swinging that kills people on a regular basis by comparing it to me rolling along with traffic at 10 over.
And yeah, California is bad (that's one of the reasons I love my wagon, it slips under the radar with all the import profiling) but other places are following. As much as it sucks, administrations have to get funded somehow, and streetracing task forces are an easy way to get a ready-made budget hike. We all pay the price because some failed abortion rams his "race car" into an innocent family pulling into an intersection. We get profiled (at least in CA) becuase these wastes of air associate themselves with us, even if we want nothing to do with them.
