I remember in the late 90s the cops in my large city caught flack for buying SUVs in a city with no offroading and zero hills. They gave the same reason. Now all the squad cars are SUVs.
Are car manufacturers actually making cars anymore? Seems they all shifted to SUVs.
They just make themselves look like such dweebs with that.
Did it work though? Would be fine for an investment if it actually worked...
I’m more surprised that D.A.R.E. still exists.
Even when I was a kid in the 90s, it was largely known then it was a massive failure.
By highschool, most of the kids doing drugs renamed it Drugs Are Really Expensive. Probably didn't help that the police officer assigned to the high school was known amongst the students to be selling drugs to the students.
Just say no!
Ha ha!
I like how they're trying to encourage people to say no to drugs with an expensive vehicle from a company headed by a notorious drug abuser.
Say no to drugs or you will approve of shit like this "car"
The only way that makes any sense.
Screw Elon. Stop spending tax money to support his endeavors.
Maybe just... Defunding the police just a liiiiitle bit wouldn't be so bad...
Im joking btw dont hurt me or argue at me ;-;
You know you're on Lemmy, right?
We can recognize that lowering their funding won’t get rid of their unnecessary expenses
Hahah, people don't see it right away. Here you'll get trashed for not saying it with your chest. Honestly, I'm happier than a pig in a donut shop
They do need to defund them if they are paying for this shit.
HONESTLY.... not a bad idea ffs. Its like taking away the cookie jar when a kid gets too greedy. "You'll get the money back when you stop buying useless shit with it"
Police also shouldn't be out for 5150s but here we are. At least suicide by cop is easy
Because this viewpoint exists I died to crime.
Thanks a lot
yur welcome :3
Wait but thats illegal
Huh. I came specifically to say "Defund. Them."
Shoulda used that money for a one-off Anti School Drug Event.
Could've used the money for supplies and lunches for the kids.
Nothing would drive me to drugs faster.
Unless you need to go through sand to get to the drugs, or it's raining.
Or your deal is in a carwash....or you have to off road. Ors it's too cold...
Oh good, now you can get away with crime if it's raining
