I didn't know all that about the president's car. When you need to start carrying bags of your blood type around, maybe the system has gone too far? Like, maybe in a functional system, the president should just be able to walk around normally?

"The Beast" always carries the president's blood type. Normal thing in a democracy

I mean, it makes sense for the secret service to be paranoid about cars after JFK

[-] CantaloupeAss@hexbear.net 18 points 2 weeks ago

They don't have to look outside of DC to find the people who arranged that, maybe the car wasn't the issue lol

Yes but when Kim Jong Un walks among his people freely that's because of the cult of personality and totalitarian state, we Americans have the freedom to despise and hate our leaders that they're scared of us. /s

that “beast” pic makes me want to do a 90s style action movie with generic Eastern European bad guys where the plot revolves around the fact that the drivers side window does open 3”

Poisoned dagger fitted onto a colonoscopy camera.

They first cause a roadblock in the motorcade using IEDs, and take people in the crowd hostage as a human shield around their specialist to control the camera.

The hero is an ex-troop turned traffic cop who's wife and daughter are amongst the hostages, now fighting for his life to save his loved ones and also his family ( kelly ).

Secret service can do a J turn? That's scary

Not everyone has the time -- or the skills -- to do the Burton Guster Maneuver

Secret service says they can. In reality they would try, probably flip the vehicle, or hit something and be totally stuck. We've seen this year what secret service training looks like

The narrowest J-turn was performed in a Renault Twingo, between barriers set 3.78 metres apart. The diagonal length of the car, 3.70 metres, meant stunt driver Terry Grant had a gap of 4 centimetres (1.6 in) on each side. This happened at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, UK, at the PistonHeads show on 11–13 January 2008.

that is really fucking cool
