I agree. I think the blue/indigo/periwinkle color is different enough from other blues to stand out. And the patterns/striping of the other colors is far more interesting to look at than any of the other liveries.
It's a lot better than the solid color patch surround by black on the other cars.
You literally just defined the attributes of a currency. The only difference is that crypto isn't backed by a government.
Edited. See below. Apparently some crypto is government backed. There is no functional difference between traditional currency and (at least some) crypto.
I don't disagree one bit. The Border(TM) gets trotted out more than it ought to every couple years. That's probably why this issue will never be fixed--it's great at riling people up.
However, I think people should still be aware of the facts of the situation. At least if they actually care about the problem. Misinformation doesn't fix anything.
There were 50k more border encounters (illegal apprehensions) in December than the year before. In fact, encounters have been significantly higher than recent years since August (no data for January).
You can agree or disagree with the response to the influx of people at the border. But there is no denying there has been a considerable increase in traffic.
Here's a year old article referencing a 2026 entry I found after 30 seconds of Googling. One would think the season Andretti was wanting to compete would have come up in their applications.
It's a high crime neighborhood because criminals live there. Or more precisely, because it's a poor, gang infested neighborhood.
What you've said makes no sense. There are high crime neighborhoods like this all over the country independently of what Google maps does. There are also neighborhoods full of tourists that aren't high crime areas.
Particular conditions, in this particular neighborhood, lead to these particular crimes occurring.
So did millions of any other group of people you can think of; white, black, rich, poor, young, and old. Are they all uncompromising pieces of shit too? Is voting for Biden the mark of the beast, and once marked you're never entitled to government reforms?
Or is there some other purity test one must pass before being eligible for support?
We agree the current "boomer" policies are inadequate and should be changed, yes? Then is your position that improvements to the status quo should exclude people of a certain age because of how a portion of that population has voted?
If that's your position, then that's condemnation. The entire group is being excluded from the solution, despite only a portion having created the problem in the first place.
Apply that logic to any minority/disadvantaged/disenfranchised group, and see where it takes you. Should all Palestinians be punished because they didn't do enough to stop Hamas? Should black Americans born in the 1910s not have enjoyed the benefits of the Civil Rights movement because they didn't affect enough change in their youth?
Just wait until they say that about you. I don't know what your age is, but your generational cohort certainly hasn't done everything perfectly either. No "generation" ever has, and never will.
The will of the majority shouldn't infringe on the liberty of the minority. Might shouldn't make right.
Are you saying the actions of a portion of an arbitrarily defined group should condemn the group as a whole? I'll ask the same question I asked another commenter; are you okay with that same principle being applied to you in the future?
