    Haven't checked it, but those are 3rd world countries. Probably full of Trump supporters and doing research on YouTube. Jeff van Gundy should have a word with them.

    and your point is irrelevant to my point.

    You just like to argue semantics.

    You didn't address what i said MY point was.

    You think im trying to separate the two.

    Im saying there aren't any cops on the road to deal with either and both cause issues on the road.

    Stop your bullshit man….smh…

    No. It's the opposite. I think your post confused the two by using them interchangeably.

    Yes, both cause issues on the road. But if you think about it even a little bit, you'll realize that cops on the road are much less able to stop one than the other.

    Reckless driving, yes, cops on the road will have a decent chance of observing and stopping before an accident occurs.

    Road rage is entirely different as it tends to be much shorter in duration - 'that jackass cut me off, I'll show him!' You have to have cops literally everywhere to catch that before it causes an accident.

    You'd have had a decent point if you'd concentrated on reckless driving, but instead you mixed in road rage, and quoted a road rage article.

    It's not semantics. I understand you want to have people say 'yeah, that's right!' without worrying too much about whether what you actually said makes sense, but this isn't where you go for that sort of affirmation.

    um ive called the cops over a dudes road rage. Less cops means longer response times.
    Argue semantics with someone else.

    Hm ok. Sure seems like you go out of your way to get butthurt when defending the anti vax crowd. Even though you are vaxxed yourself. Weird.

    I think for the most part people are the same in real life as they are here.

    I think I'm pretty similar in real life and online. Probably less likely to call someone out on bullshit in real life though. Mainly because most of my family is very conservative, so I know how to avoid that subject in real life. I mean, who else here has hung out with @MARIS61 and @ABM and both of their wives, and had a great time?

    I have been a nervous wreck, including when driving through mountains, but not in a wreck. A fender bender in Berkeley Bowl market parking lot.

    Using engineering, which must be alien to you, 2.4 says you are using one decimal point. This means that 2.4 is 2.4 and that 2.4 + 2.4 = 4.8. In other words you must use the first digit after the decimal point in your calculation.
    Did you not learn the lesson about the difference between the physicist, the mathematician and the engineer? Engineers rule, baby.

    Seriously. This tweeter about Scandinavian concerns went like it didn't happen. Just few posts after some of you said, that people with vac concerns ignore facts you show them.
    That is exactly, what I ment, saying that both sides are the same. Let's just ignore this tweet, so we can throw some more shit on each other after it will be forgotten.

    1. Unusual Whales is not a twitter account I follow for medical or sports information.

    2. No link to an actual article.

    I did look at this twitter account and I'll admit, they have some pretty cool whale gifs.

    And if you want to throw shit on me for not responding how you want me to respond over a tweet with what you consider facts in it that's cool with me. Throw away!
