    Next thing you know, they will require some sort of car safety harness.

    I noticed that with my rental car in Ireland. I figured the shutting the engine off was a
    Fuel saving measure.

    if so it worked as we got really good gas mileage.

    CircleTheDrain is desperate, resorting to convenient lies concocted by Clay Travis, the inept version of Joe Rogan/Glen Beck and the like

    I'm sure Elon and our own resident Elon-lite will condemn the Trumpian Thought Police...

    https://thehill.com/homenews/campai...p-urges-jail-sentence-burning-flags-protests/

    “You should get a one-year jail sentence if you do anything to desecrate the American flag,” Trump said Wednesday on “Fox & Friends” when asked about the protests.

    “Now, people will say, ‘Oh, it’s unconstitutional.’ Those are stupid people. Those are stupid people that say that,” the former president continued. “We have to work in Congress to get a one-year jail sentence. When they’re allowed to stomp on the flag and put lighter fluid on the flag and set it afire, when you’re allowed to do that — you get a one-year jail sentence, and you’ll never see it again.”

    Flag burning is of course protected under the First Amendment. Why would you want to get rid of it anyway? It serves as a useful marker of people to avoid.
