Carlos Ghosn Arrested Again in Japan

It's amazing how a leather wrapped steering wheel changes the experience at the wheel for the better (it seems to make for an almost different car from the model with a urethane steering wheel).

Another thing to think on is the evidence bullet proof? Sadly, the same type of people who have said an eye for an eye, death penalty if you took a life have convicted others with hate in their heart only to have science prove the convicted innocent.  In this regards I wish all guns had palm / finger tip readers to confirm who last fired the gun. While others might say the death penalty is cruel, how is it when the person if proved beyond a reasonable doubt took a life? What about serial killers who are sitting for life, a burden on society in jail because folks feel there should be no death penalty and yet they took multiple lives themselves. Would it not be better for society if that person was no longer around, a burden on the tax payers? Many good questions to be asked. Lets take this a step further, auto makers who due to a focus on profits take shortcuts on safety of an auto, who should be held accountable for the deaths related to their products and how do you hold them accountable? An example of profit before safety, FORD PINTO Details of the Pinto's flawed fuel system: Location and construction: The sheet-metal gas tank was placed behind the rear axle, a design common at the time, but the Pinto's tank was made with exceptionally thin walls. It was held in place by two metal straps. Vulnerable parts: During rear-end impacts, bolts protruding from the differential housing could puncture the thin-walled tank. Additionally, the fuel-filler neck could tear away from the tank itself. Internal cost analysis: Internal Ford documents revealed that engineers were aware of the risks in pre-production crash tests and considered inexpensive fixes, including adding a rubber bladder to the tank. Alternative designs rejected: Engineers considered safer alternative designs, such as placing the tank above the axle (a design used on the Ford Capri), but this was rejected due to cost and styling constraints. Final design choice: Executives opted not to make these changes after a cost-benefit analysis concluded it would be cheaper to pay out potential lawsuits and settlements than to implement the repairs.  So who do you hold accountable for the deaths?

Is it truly awful to wish death unto another human being?  No matter how vile the recipient of the death wish is?       This is a question one has to ask oneself.   It is truly perplexing because one has to have deep personal reflections with oneself and how one wishes to go about living one's life and how one views life...    And why do I ask?   https://www.foxnews.com/live-news/charlie-kirk-shooting-suspect-tyler-robinson-arraignment-9-16-2025 Alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson charged with murder; prosecutors to seek death penalty   Because life and the reality of living on this beautiful but sometimes deadly planet of ours has all kinds of little ironies in it.  Me personally...I am not really against capital punishment.  It depends.  Death penalties are complicated.  When I was in high school, we had debates on capital punishment. I flip flop on this matter often.    About Tyler, "oh well" would be my response if he is (truly) guilty and is sentenced to die for killing Charlie.  An eye for an eye.  If he is not the killer, then obviously he should be set free...    "But you wished death on another human"  is the battle cry for many. "Yeah well...I didnt pull the phoquing  trigger to kill Charlie" would be my response...  I didnt say racist, sexist, bigoted disgusting shyte toward my fellow man not having empathy for kids dying in school shootings either...  I am not sooooo far right that Charlie was not far right enough for my hatred towards my fellow human beings.  As far as me being leftist woke, I am not that either.   As far as me being a good Christian. I am definitely not that either. I am Christian. But I am also a human being first and foremost. That means I am fallible. I am not perfect. I try to be good. I sometimes fail. And that is OK. And when I die, God will judge me.  Do I judge people? Every damned day!!!!  I also swear a lot lately...  But I do not use God's name in vain...   PS: Remember though, HATE speech is what Charlie Kirk spewed.  Deceitful words is what came out of his mouth.  And THOSE things have consequences attached to them.  And if a society wants to normalize hate speech and deceit, well, hate and violence will be a normal way of life in that society. Be careful what you wish for... ironically speaking.   About Tyler... So...the question is:  Do YOU wish the death penalty upon Tyler if he is guilty?  Be careful on how you answer that.  Dig DEEP DOWN and think about what your TRUE feelings are...  Do not tell me or anybody else your feelings.  This is personal.  But you will probably be surprised that you may also be a hypocrite...  And THAT is THE answer that I was looking for today...    Kinda like Charlie...that 5 minutes of life he had left when he got shot and bled out.   Did he think about all that hatred bullshyte he spewed?    Did he think about his wife and 2 children when he was dying and did he correlate all that with his shytty phoquing far right ideology?   Yeah...something to think about indeed.
