Yup. I believe the traditional way in congress to resolve these sorts of disputes is to attack with a cane.

Look, I know that Trump won't get kicked out by the Senate. I know that the poo poo doesn't matter and I'm happy with thoroughly being entertained by how much this whole thing blew up (lol even Giuliani has shut up).

But every time I hear about Senate Republicans talking about this poo poo, I catch a whiff of mattering. I put the conviction chances at around 5% and I think that's climbing on a daily basis. STOP GIVING ME HOPE, YOU STUPID FUCKS

Probably a bad idea to let the national security apparatus choose who gets to have oversight over them and with what information available. Guessing that would turn out even worse than our current poo poo show.

Generally not in a cupholder. poo poo tends to go flying out of there in a lot of crashes.

The only volunteer firefighter I know desperately wants to be a cop but he's too dumb to even pass the academy. So instead he's a correctional officer and a reserve deputy in some Oklahoma town of 12 people

not wearing a seatbelt and getting into a high speed crash or rollover generally ejects people from their vehicles, thus not having to worry about entrapment.

The side effects of being ejected aren't really all that great though

colachute
Mar 15, 2015

If you’re going fast enough that a rollover would damage the frame of the car so much that being trapped by your seatbelt would be a hazard, then wouldn’t getting launched be even worse?

Aren’t modern cars sturdy enough for rollovers at non-you’d-die-anyway speeds?

The dinging in cars worked. I used to not wear my seat belt. Then I started wearing it to get the car to shut up. Now it’s just force of habit.

Yeah I can't imagine that being launched through your windshield at 60+ mph would be very comfortable, not to mention the impact with literally everything else.

Turns out that humans are barely clever apes that have a hard time envisioning things that could kill them!

Oh i know its a TERRIBLE place but im assuming anyone who uses the "what if im in a crash bad enough to gently caress up the seatbelt" logic as a reason to not wear one wouldnt put the knife in a smart place either

We did have two idiots who tried to hit a kangaroo with their 5 ton (might have been a 7.5 ton?) Rollover in Australia who were saved due to not wearing seatbelts. Rollover sheared off the top of the cab, but they both got launched out of it due to not wearing seatbelts. Had to be airlifted and were hurt real loving bad.

Not something to make life decisions about not using safety equipment over though.

We demand to be taken seriously

The D.A.R.E. officer for our school had a husband who refused to wear a seatbelt so she had us all write him a letter about why he should do so. She gave him the pile of letters and the first kid had said “please stop doing drugs or whatever it is you are doing” and he was baffled about what was going on

My sister rolled her car over the weekend and would probably be a pile of broken bones instead of bruised up if it weren't for the seatbelt. Wear your seatbelts idiots. Also don't text and drive.
