Only thing I'm waiting on is that there was a claim of explosives in the vehicle. If true, these were seriously incompetent terrorists. If false, chalk up another eff up for the mainstream media, especially Fox. Edited November 22, 2023 by Sabrefan1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is curious that only Fox is talking terrorism while all other sites are just saying no one knows yet. Of course, for most sites it's an important story that took place at the border and for Fox it took place at THE BORDER!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They buried it in the article rather than the headline just in case they had to backpedal. Fox always goes for the emotion based clicks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave it up to FBI official investigation to complete. Sad story in any case, whether it's terrorism, suicide, or freak accident. Thanksgiving tomorrow.

5forFighting Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 The knee-jerk reaction by the media got it wrong, again. All over the place it started out as terrorism, then a car bomb and in the end it was a dumb ass going way too fast. Why can't they research then report? Everyone tries to get something out first for the masses to gobble. It sends fear through many people who cannot handle any more fear.

6of1_halfdozenofother Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 If we're going to be wandering into the realm of speculation and unverified reporting, I'll throw out this possibility - maybe the guy decided to take his loan shark out for a ride... permanently. 2 minutes ago, 5forFighting said: Why can't they research then report?

However, media CAN not draw conclusions and refrain from narratives. But, it’s not news anymore is it? It’s info-taiment, so you buy more pillows and pee-pee pills and get a reverse mortgage.

The very first one (called Lee 1) still exists. It was restored and then eventually bought by a Nascar Driver who subsequently painted over the confederate flag when leftists gave him sh*t about it being on there... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get where you are coming from, I love classic cars to. However jumping a car is so much fun, we used to do it a lot when we were younger. Started out with Paddock bombs and did it with a few of our road registered cars as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you use to weigh the back end down? Sand bags or did you go Hollywood ghetto and dump concrete in the trunk like some of the stunt coordinators on that show did with the Chargers?

For starters, we didn't we put anything in the boot, we were young and didn't give a fuck, smaller jumps. Then as we got older we learnt from jumping our motor bikes the shape of the jump and landing was the most important thing, we were/ are farmers with tractor with blades to shape our jumps, then fine tune them by hand. When the jumps got bigger, we did throw some bags of cement in the boot. When I think back I am amazed that only a few of us died doing the crazy shit we did in car's, off our faces on drugs and alcohol.
