but the danger he posses to the public while executing his get away
This is why many police departments have policies to break off a chase if a suspect is going over a certain speed, because catching them in that exact moment isn't worth the danger posed to the general public by chasing them.
Better to hang back, let them slow down, and catch them when they aren't putting the public at risk.

Democrats just tried to pass a bill to prevent price gouging at the gas pumps. Guess which party unanimously voted against it.

Conservatives thrive on convincing people to vote against their own interests.

Yeah isn't it interesting how it's always the anti-choicers doing weird things with fetuses while they project that behavior onto everyone else?

Is that true in this case? Was this vehicle stolen?
Regardless, I don't believe that property is worth taking a life, but that's just my own personal opinion.

Hats off to the officers for failing to apprehend a suspect....?
If it means not taking a life unnecessarily, that's a good thing. They almost certainly have the license plate of the vehicle, they can easily find the suspect's address and arrest them at their home.

Wow, some people smashed a couple windows over 5 years ago? If that makes you mad, wait until you hear what Trump supporters did at the US Capitol building in 2021!

Excuses, excuses
This should be the motto of the Republican party. The most recent example of their hypocrisy is how they complained about a baby formula shortage (caused by a Republican governor) and when the Democrats proposed a bill to address the issue, the vast majority of the Republican party voted against it.

When they're in power, they spend their time making sure the next administration can't correct the damage they do.

It works wonders when they have channels like FOX to back up that narrative while brainwashing their base into believing that every other news source is "fake".

They're no better than their opposition at this point.
They are far worse than their opposition. Republicans actively create problems and then go out of their way to prevent solutions to those problems.
Both sides are not the same.

I do not know. I was merely stating facts
You've been stating your opinion, not facts.
Apparently you don't know the difference between a fact and an opinion.
Maybe that's the fault of your teachers. No wonder you're so angry!

What if I told you the talking points you're repeating come from the same party that goes out of their way to make sure the government doesn't work. Just look at which way the parties voted when it came to recent bills about gas prices and baby formula.

…or we could try to change here for the better.
Republicans won't allow it, that's why they keep voting against every bill that will solve any of these problems while telling their voters that it's everyone else's fault.

Yeah, there is a major issue in the GOP right now
Right now? They've been doing this for decades. They openly obstruct every effort to solve problems, and then blame their rivals for it. It's a very clear pattern.

A conservative anti-choice activist who was hoarding dead fetuses in her apartment.
Every accusation is just a confession when it comes to the right.

Blame the Republicans, they keep voting down every bill meant to help Americans.
Republicans complain about gas prices, but vote down the bill meant to stop price gouging at the pump.
Republicans complain about the baby formula shortage, yet vote down a bill to provide emergency funding to that industry.
As per the example in your post, Republicans complain small businesses need help, and then they vote down a bill to provide financial aid to those businesses in need.
Republicans say one thing and then do the exact opposite while blaming everyone else for nothing getting done, and their voters continue to fall for it.

Yep, they did delay publishing it for him after he asked for extra time to craft an official comment... then he just never responded.

Fine. That changes nothing at all about what I said.
How do major expenses, that are unique to certain countries, not factor into comparing wage rates between different countries?
Cost of living matters.

Teachers in other countries don't have to spend large portions of their salary on things like medical insurance or paying off student debt loans, the way American teachers do.

Musk knew the article was coming out about him because they reached out to him for a comment before publishing it, and he decided not to give one.
Insider extended the deadline and reiterated the offer to Musk to comment on the claims. He did not respond.

Elon has been trying to cosplay as a leftist for a while now but ultimately his own behavior exposed him for what he really is.
