Sheriff departments are also notoriously corrupt, drunk with power, and frequently far-right. Here’s a blog I subscribe to about them.

And here’s a phenomenolly reported podcast on gangs in sheriff departments in LA.

And if you want to read the journalist’s work rather than listen to the podcast, here’s where to find that.

I’ve listed these three links enough times that I’ve now saved them locally so I don’t have to look them up via Google each time. I strongly recommend checking them out.

I wonder if they were taking notes from John Deere and the automotive industry or will it be the reverse here soon?

Just imagine all these vehicles that could be bricked for not going back to the stealerships for outrageous prices on parts and incompetent service.

Also the vehicles that could be disabled for not paying for device protection plan that allows your vehicle to operate safely. It would be a shame if your vehicle stopped working on your way to work or the hospital.

I suspect Tesla, BMW, and John Deere are the closest to this reality.

I sure hope the government doesn’t help with another great cash for clunkers national program to get rid of more cars too old for these measures. Sure is a great way to drive new car sales though…
