    Goddamn I hate America. 12 year old kid runs away from home, and the solution is to put his life in danger PITing him on the highway, and then charging him with a felony.

    In Washington, a solid-blue enclave in the PNW.

      What were they supposed to do? A 12 year old in a car is quite the liability. I do very much agree that the law enforcement over there is shit

        Puget sound is for the most part, but drive to the peninsula or east of the mountains and it is a different story.

          Yep 😮‍💨

          But it’s like almost every city, bright blue progressives surrounded by morons who want to control how you live your life by their standards.

          Spokane, you don’t like how we live in Seattle? Stay the fuck in Spokane.

          I think that’s true but even in suburbs of Seattle what you hear around town is pretty 50-50. Maybe just the reds are louder per capita.

      “Precision” that often damages the f out of both vehicles, causes a rollover, or sometimes just doesn’t work.

      It’s only precise on the police training skid pad.
