Did you mean “shiftless” and lazy?
Your assumption would be correct.
Good ole whitey commits just as many horrible crimes. Strangely i rarely if ever see them here...these perps deserve swift justice no doubt. But they are far from the only ones out there..
The biggest disadvantage a vehicle with a manual transmission has is that they have virtually no resale value, a point that was driven home several times in negotiations for a car trade.
But it is a GREAT anti-theft device, as the perpetrator has little chance of learning the nuances of disengaging the clutch, moving the gear lever to the proper gear, and releasing the clutch in such manner as to pick up speed more or less smoothly, without killing the engine or causing excessive overrevving.
If you are good with the operation of a manual transmission, it is not necessary to even use the clutch once you are underway. Just let up slightly on the accelerator, slip the transmission into neutral, then with the throttle, match the engine speed to approximately that of the ground speed in that next particular gear, and the gears will slide into the next higher or lower ratio like a hot knife through butter. Double-clutching without the use of a clutch.
Syncro-mesh was the wussie’s way out, and destroyed the practice of this fine art.
Lucky girl
ATM transactions need to be upgraded so that crime victims when making forced withdrawals can send a coded message they are under duress
But good ole whitey isn't just 5% of the population committing 50% of the crimes. Remove the blacks from the crime in the US and our crime rate is lower than all of Europe.
It won’t ‘stop’. The Rapture will result in gang violence you can only imagine, as dead souls seek to survive not realizing time is so short for them all. The end of the seven years of Tribulation will however ‘end’ the dead soul attacks.
‘I don’t think Gen-Xers and Millennials even know how to use manual window cranks much less manual transmissions.’
Not true. My 17 year old grandaughter has a car with a manual
transmission.
I'll take perps for $500:
If 0bama had sons (and wasn't a homo) they'd look just like them?
“Good ole whitey commits just as many horrible crimes”
No, they don’t. National crime stats say otherwise.
Here in the USA that is probably the best anti-theft device you can have.
While we were on vacation, someone broke into our house and among other things stole my stick-shift Beetle. She got it about a quarter-mile before someone helped her push it into a church parking lot. It cost the insurance company $1800 to replace the clutch in a practically new car.
My dad made me learn on a manual & I was not happy. He did say that it could save my life if I happened to get into a situation where that was my only way out. I couldn’t even argue w/ him on that point!
Good luck with yours!!!
Not even close statistically wise..
Balderdash. Race war, schmace war.
That's just what the Enemy loves to do: pit groups against each other who should otherwise be uniting against it. Then they tear each other apart while the Enemy prospers.
Do you honestly think that 13% of the American population wants to go up against 70%? The vast majority of Blacks—like the vast majority of Whites—just want to be left alone and live in peace with their fellow Americans.
This "race war" crap is just what outfits like the Black Panthers—and their White counterparts—try to foment. It's a lie, and it will never happen in America. Nor should it. The only thing that can result from that is even more innocents being killed on both sides. Is that what you want?
"It's a trap!" Try to think like a Christian. Don't allow yourself to be manipulated by the Enemy...
LOL.
“I don’t think Gen-Xers and Millennials even know how to use manual window cranks much less manual transmissions.”
This Gen-Xer thinks that automatic transmission should be banned :-). I’ve *never* owned an automatic :-).
You got me on window cranks though ... I love power windows.
“ATM transactions need to be upgraded so that crime victims when making forced withdrawals can send a coded message they are under duress”
wouldn’t be hard to do, e.g., append “*” or “#” at the end of the PIN, ATM system auto dials 911 and auto-feeds ATM address to police.
1 out of 20,000...
the problem is that the vast majority of blacks believe that they have a vast majority.
