Screeching Anti-ICE Protester Too Busy Being Mad to Realize Her Car Is Rolling Into a Lake

RedState-

My colleague Jennifer Oliver O’Connell has a weekly feature called “Feel-Good Friday,” in which she highlights those feel-good stories that remind us there is good in the world and, more importantly, we can be the good in the world if we choose to. It is a lovely series that I hope you are all reading whenever it goes live on the front page of RedState.

However, while it is true that we can be the good we want to see in the world, sometimes forces beyond our comprehension recognize that, amid all the bad going on, sometimes we need a little help finding joy. So, for whatever reason, those forces saw a great need this Sunday morning and gave us exactly what we needed during these trying times: An anti-ICE protester screeching about an illegal getting arrested only to discover she forgot to put her car in park. more

    “Maybe the car was just trying to commit suicide to get away from Porky!
    The springs on the left side were screaming ā€œHELP!ā€”

    …just a little side trip here. In a former life I was a suspension and alignment guy back when cars were mostly RWD and ALL the angles were adjustable, so I had a lot of different things I could do to tailor the ride to the driver and how the car was used.

    One problem I saw kinda often was a guy would complain it pulled to the right. I would test drive it and not feel it, so set everything to spec and turn it out after another uneventful test drive, only to have it come back with the same problem. Over time I learned to look at how the PASSENGER side seating was broken down and try to meet the customer in the waiting room to discuss it…and, ideally, get a covert look at his wife.

    This was not out of purient interest, but rather to see how large a lady she may be. With or without the visual cues I would ask the guy if Wifey often rode shotgun, and if yes, either find our lardiest guy to occupy the sister seat on the rack with it returned to spec, or simply mod the caster and (to a lesser extent because tire wear, the camber) to make it pull a bit LEFT when driver only so when the scales to starbord were forced down, the net result was STRIAGHT.

    This worked really well for a bunch of years, until I got out around ’05, but by then most things were some variant of MacPherson strut and most adustment was no longer available, certainly not caster.

    Nowadays the kids have all this self-driving, anti-skid, lane following malarkey that I imagine complicates the alignment process quite a bit; but it also seems likely that it can do something to compensate for the FWA (Fat Wife Angle), so there’s that…

    Sooooooo… with all that intelligence why not have it light a FWA light on the dash when Wide Ride gets in?
    Followed by a WTF light if she’s over 400Lbs!

  3. …I thought for a minute that, had she not been so nasty the ICE guys would probably have helped get her car out of the lake, but then it occurred to me that, had she not been so nasty, it wouldnt have ended up in the lake in the FIRST place…
