"Stop laughing," the department chief said in an interview with WLMY. "This is a wheel problem for us."

The officers have been reviewing security footage before beginning material investigations so that they can hit the ground running.

Eventually their investigation will come to a skidding halt, as they are burning rubber trying to find the suspects.

Return just the wheels, the tires need to be examined further and will take an additional 6-18 business months

Just cut them open, plenty of smugglers put bricks of product inside.

They weren't stolen .... they can be fetched and returned from their last known location in Afghanistan

After six months the tires are sent to the city dump.

City Waste Landfill? City Police Precinct? Easy mistake when all these departments just look the same, you know.

Tires can't be criminals, they are inanimate objects. Only humans and some higher intelligent animals can break the law.

You'd think that but in the American legal system corporations are civil rights bearing people, you're not related to your parents unless you maintain the same address, and objects can be suspected and tried for criminal acts and assumed guilty until proven otherwise.

When was the last time a corp was sentenced to death and executed?

My point is they are super citizens, with more rights and privileges and less things binding them.

The argument that corporations have civil rights is how the Supreme Court justified eliminating anti bribery laws that curtailed political funding from corporations.

It's better if the police budget is spent on replacing tires rather than purchasing even more unnecessary surplus military equipment which they will then try to justify using.

Doing this saves lives, the taxes pay for the payouts in wrongful death lawsuits so this saves money.

All of this would take maximum less than a week to be reversed and paid by residents taxes.

That's a week less with fewer cops beating and killing innocent people. Maybe it's worth it to avoid paying taxes out to grieving families and disabled victims in settlements.

You're right, it is an unpopular opinion. Maybe keep it to yourself next time you decide to let your fascist flag fly.

The part that really shocked me is that it got even upvotes and downvotes... Mask off, I absolutely admit that was a troll shit post, I didn't take it seriously but I also took it seriously enough to not add a /s. I expected to be downvoted to oblivion, I didn't expect it to be on par. That's a litmus test for ya.

Edit: Until I downvoted myself that is, now it's 6 up and 8 down. Seriously though, glad you pushed back against that.
