    The same place it says it’s for civil forfeiture. This being said the police officer does have a ticket in hand which implies some sort of safety violation.

    This comic could be taking place in China. The same scene could play out. Nothing specific to injustice in the USA here.

        If your state doesn’t do safety inspections that’s something you should talk with a state legislator about.

          they officially are done, but only in the major citys and people living pretty much everywhere else is given exceptions. Safety inspections seem like a weird idea anyway, how does the government know what is safe for my usag of the vehicle. Is a lack of coolant a safety issue? What about a missing bumper? A half rotted frame?

        If I was driving dangerously it would only be just that I be punished proportionately. Same goes for everyone in every country.

        If you call that boot licking so be it.

          Who

          Is

          Driving

          Dangerously?

          Assumptions in your head don’t count anymore than anything else in there.
