  10. If only they were so quick to old officers accountable for their felonious actions.

  11. Whoo! Making donuts! Murica!

  12. Thinking we should put an age limit on driving cars … Driving like this is just as bad as being careless with a gun

  13. Lots of talk!!!
    Now walk the walk!
    TAKE THE CARS, it removes the hazard.!!!
    Hierarchy of controls!!!

  14. No need for new laws for, God sake!!!. Enforce and enhance existing laws pertinent to vehicle operation, and public safety. Simple stuff here. And yes, confiscate their cars, sale them and give money to charities.

  15. But I can do in the video games lol

  16. They need to ban these high capacity cars. No civilian needs anything bigger than a golf cart. Cars are to blame here.

  17. Keep voting for Democrats maybe it will get better

  18. Alex choi would be proud you used his clip of his tesla ❤️ 😆

    Mark Meadows Guilty and Contempt
    Dan Scavino Guilty and Contempt
    Civil Contempt For Trump Is Pending
    Civil lawsuits For Trump Are Pending
    Jail Time For Trump Is Coming: he stole white house documents and gifts to America from foreign officials. oh and he is the insurrection leader

    Now you know what the future with Trumpism will continue to be like !! More mass shooting will happen if DOJ Garland doesnt arrest all top Trumpists.

    No person is above the law! Listen to former DOJ Eric Holder, you can and need to prosecute Trump.

    since January 6 2021 not one single Republican lawmaker has been held accountable for their insurrection actions. they will win re-election if not arrested and they will cause more chaos and mass shootings. Put an end to the evil Trumpist Republicans and support the good Republicans and good democrats.

    DOJ Garland is ending democracy by not prosecuting all top Trumpists.

    MAGA Trumpists are ramping up their war machine to lie about their insurrection! Dont believe the lies!

    ….

    More Very Disturbing Trends –

    1 Law enforcement has NO OBLIGATION TO HELP ANYONE

    2 Law enforcement cant be prosecuted for Not doing their jobs

    3 Law enforcement can legally lie unless they are under oath at that moment; their oath is meaningless

    4 The District Attorney will side with the cops almost always

    This is just normal Trumpist behavior.

    Texas Shooting Coverup …..over 18 armed evil trumpist c o p s had over 11,000 live rounds of ammo and they waited. and waited…..while people were being killed. it took the border patrol to take out the shooter…. how sad is that?

    when will these evil trumpist cops be fired and arrested? they wont because they have qualified immunity!

    nothing will happen to these evil trumpist people unless the locals keep up the pressure and the cops and politicians involved leave!

  20. Okay, this is unacceptable but….sentencing kids to 15 years in prison for being stupid is a little much. They need discipline not complete destruction of their lives

  21. This mayhem is absolutely dangerous.

  22. "Up to 15 years in prison," or as low as a $15 fine.

  23. Los Angeles set trend now Copycats everywhere

  24. Of course the hooligans know they won't be arrested, defund the police so the Democrats gun laws cannot be enforced ahahaha 🤣

  27. Give the a lot to do these things because as for me, I'm not stopping 🤷🏾‍♂️ and they won't catch me

  28. Losers with bikes. Just hit their cars…they don't have insurance.

  29. The mayor of New Orleans need to have a curfew from 8:00 pm until morning for young people ages 12 to 22. give out high tickets , and have the drivers cars impound. America this is what happened when you take out God and the Bible from schools.

  30. The green pants lady at 0:13 needs to sit on my face.

  31. Cops all talk no action,waste of tax payers money

  32. They need to make dedicated spin ring to cut the crap out on main streets! Why do you think they made drag races anyway???

  33. Har inte polisen vapen att använda mot muppar som ex förstör polisens bilar mm?
