Wow. Just read this post from where I left it, and good god. I don't want to get in a flame war, but I just have to say something.
arch, you are an idiot with big words. You have no complete thoughts, you have yet to back up your arguments, and from the looks of it, all the intelligent people that WERE trying to help you make a good argument have left because you are just that stupid.
Red, you've been alot better than arch, but the only argument you disagree with is that the passenger was innocent. Should they have let the car go, simply because if the driver had just killed someone, the passenger was innocent? Should they have assumed that these are good, honest people, who just didn't want to be "bothered by the cops" today, and they decided to just NOT STOP, and run from them? Should we let people driving to work die before we go after someone who has been in the company of someone who commited a criminal act, and now is in the same car as them, without fight or attempt to flee?
Truely, this is just inane how far this thread has gone. Most of it is petty name calling, and it's hard NOT to do when there is such a huge showing of ignorance. Kremit, kudos to you for apologizing, but I should probably already apologize for this thread, since I know it won't go without a disagreement. Red, you are getting the point I believe, or at least are not posting any more incoherent arguments. arch will never understand why his arguments make no sense, and I will never understand half his posts, mainly cuz he typically posts once, responds to himself, and in that response just says something incredibly intelligent like "You're a moron", or "BULL SH*T"
Anywho, just had to get that out, and a pre apology for contributing to this little fight.
Oh and whoever said something along the lines of

Yes. They are risking their lives to protect yours. Why can't you just see that?
