Police are above the law. Even when they are off duty.

This is how the Roman Empire met its end. "
I disagree. The Romans became too multicultural in their own time. The people in the badlands didn't become assimilated before they overstretched all the way to Britain.
Do that know that the major freeways in Europe are on the foundations that the Romans built? They had construction engineers that knew what they were doing. The Roman aqueduct in Valencia, Spain is still usable if needed. It was built to last and is very well done. Visit the place and take pictures. There is a nice place to eat near by. Bath, near Salisbury, England is another place to check out. It's a big Roman swimming pool with columns holding it together and the same warm water flowing into it as it has for 2K years. Rome invented swimming pools.
Rome made 2 strategic errors. They didn't build 4x4 trucks for the roads. And they didn't make thongs for the women that like hanging around swimming pools:):)

Are you the author of those articles? They are very good.
And it is funny, the amount of transference, projection, used by the left in this country. They all refer to Republicans as fascists. It is typical of there behavior. If we ever need to know what they are up to, look at their own statements. I just wish a lot less fewer people believed them.
Back to the thread, I just love your state. I hope to retire there. If I can talk my son into moving, I don't think I could bear being that far from him. When I come back to the NE after being in KY, I go through an extreme culture shock. It is that different, that much more pleasant an environment. Here, the environment is downright hostile.

Driving IS multi tasking!"
Poeple that drive trucks should have their cell phones jammed. A few years ago, a guy was driving a bunch of chickens to L.A. on the 405 near the 101 (Ventura FWY). It overturned. 10 lanes of traffic stopped while hundreds of chickens ran around the place. He climbed out holding his cell phone. The same thing with a beer truck 2 years ago. Free beer. And a truckful of pigs. Near the I-5 and 405. You can't be distracted on these particular freeways. Drive defensively. Buy a big pick-up with a shell so everybody sees you.

No, I'm not the author. I googled 'fascism private property' and posted some of the better composed articles.
We moved to Oklahoma about 12 years ago because it's extremely homeschool friendly. Our daughter is in college now, so all I see are the high taxes and the strange control Dims have over a mostly conservative populace.

That's funny.....none of these laws cover the number one distraction, and I guess there is no cool way of mentioning it. You mean Highway Skulls?

Last summer I was driving down the freeway and I noticed a driver up ahead of me swerving like they were drunk. When I got up closer, I saw this idiot with a newspaper spread out across the steering wheel and a cup of coffee in one hand.
I honked at him and he nearly left the road.
