The family of the piece of shite that got shot and made the other car wreck should pay for the damage.

No need for the innocent party to have their insurance rates go up cause a piece of shite wanted to steal.

Never swerve to miss something, just hit it.

If you're talking about a deer, sure hit it.

If you're talking about a semi coming straight for you, also still don't swerve. We need more idiots off the road.

Word, you got to rack up them points. But how many points does one get for hitting a corpse?

None, the truck owner gets the points in this scenario. Rightfully so.

The BBC posted the earlier story (last month?) of the Texas mother who shot the carjacker in the head. If you recall, her small child was in the car that the guy was trying to steal.

A lot of the comments were criticizing the mother because they felt that she responded with a "disproportionate response" and how she would be charged with a crime in the UK. It was a great example of the cultural divide between the US and the UK.

You don't have to go all the way to the UK to find the cultural divide on such matters.

ABC 13 reports that three suspects in total were allegedly involved in the attempted carjacking at a Houston apartment complex, and at least some of them were armed. The owner of the truck says the suspected carjackers tried to run over him before getting trapped in the parking lot because the exit gate to the complex was closed.


Is English this writer's second, or third, language?
