Why tire pressure is SO important!
« on: April 26, 2014, 0120 UTC »
A little bird pointed out to me that in this video of the Feds busting 106 in Boston, at the 40 second mark, it appears that the marshall's right rear tire is flat. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, I'm sure.

He obviously didn't top up his tires during the crucial week around the full moon. You can't defy the laws of the universe and not expect to pay for it.

It doesn't appear flat. The SUV looks more or less level on top. There is a curb to the side of the thing.

However, Freak Radio Santa Cruz *did* de-pump the tires on the federales' vehicles when they were raided in 2004. Might have also helped that the mayor was yelling at them, too, with a bullhorn.
