Car Chases

Since the bizarre O.J. Simpson car chase, it’s becoming a too-frequent event to see all the local TV stations spending an hour or so covering more of these activities. We see these many jerks being followed by myriad police cars and news helicopters. The dangers and nuisance created for so many drivers by these dumb and dangerous characters warrant prompt action by our dedicated police.

Why not ask the media to quit exploiting these actions, since for some numskulls it just promotes more bizarre acts. Also, it would seem that the police could shoot out the rear tires as soon as lanes are cleared of traffic. Yes, the culprit might get hurt, just like any other felon might get shot, but better this than endangering many innocent people’s lives.
