So that’s the way this thread ends? Well that sucks.

Truth. I had a friend in high school who's parents bought him one as a first car. The mailbox light alone made traffic on the highways slow down. When he put the light bar on the roof as a volunteer fireman about a year later, it seemed like EVERYBODY got out of his way.....

Thank you for speaking up and sharing your story. I have a family member who recently announced that they are trans. To say the least, its been an adjustment for me to think of them in this new identity. The family is very supportive but we occasionally goof and call them by their given name and use the wrong pronoun when referring to them. We are trying our best and they understand that we are new to this and that we are pretty ignorant, if I'm being honest, about their feelings and what they are going through. I am so proud of them for giving us a break and allowing us to learn how to unconditionally love them in this transition. That said, I think your attack on the person who posted the joke was pretty brutal and over the top. While I am supportive of people who are trans, I am still not and probably never will be totally understanding of what it is to be trans. It will take time, generations possibly, for society to come around. I think it would be a mistake to automatically label people as exhibiting bigotry, discrimination, hatred, and maliciousness. It could be that they are simply ignorant and lack understanding. While unfortunate that we all just don't all get it and act sensitively and appropriately, expecting immediate understanding and acceptance is probably unrealistic. Attacking those who appear offensive through lack of understanding or ignorance is not going to expedite anything. Thank you for your service. All the best to you. |

Did we all just get the Dave Chapelle treatment? I still don't have a clue what it must be like, to be trans; (forgive me, I just can't wrap my mind around it as it isn't something I'm accustomed to) but I can now tell you how Dave Chapelle feels.

Discrimination hatred malicious = A people or person that disagree with Dave90TT There you go. That should straighten this out for you. It’s always best that we just lay out the truth. It may work for some people but not for all. I get just as angry when a person tries to label me as a hater because I don’t buy into and support their lifestyle. What’s good for the goose…… |

my cousin got a old cop car , and he got pulled over by a cop, and got a 3000$ fine because he didn't remove the spotlight and the laptop tablet holder.
Apparently he was in the auction contract that you need to remove everything related to cops. Hate it or love it, I had fun on the highway with those leftlanehuger, people were moving from the freaking left lane |

Side note, that's ridiculous that that isn't allowed. I have a permanently mounted system that holds an iPad for navigation. Because it isn't on a Crown Vic this is somehow allowed? Plenty of folks with aftermarket lights installed on their vehicles without issue. Something isn't adding up. |

When my bro in law was young - he worked for a car place that bought auction cars. You had to know EVERY trick to not get hosed by people who didn't want to put a cent into them. His favorite was one where thy ran out of gas getting the car home. After towing it in - they got it up on the rack and it had a milk gun with gas in it - and NO fuel tank. Fuel sender was wired together (old float style back then) to show 1/2 tank. They had to add that to the list of things to look for. LMAO!
