Then they should not drive on those roads. All this, a swoillen secret police force in facemasks, tactical gear, and with enough armaments to occupy Ireland, is regarding people who are, statistically, more law-abiding than citizens. And to do this, new ICE recruits comprise nearly 60% of the entire agent force. (We went from 10,000 agents to 22,000.) Many, if not most, of those recruits meet the prior standards which had to be modified to achieve the desired force size to terrorize cities whose populations did not vote for Trump. And all of this shit is at taxpayers' expense

Let's begin with a discussion of WHY God is angry with ICE...

It happens naturally, sweetie. Hell, if its cold enough, boiling water will freeze. People who live there learn how to deal with that at their mamas knee.

I mean shes basically making it sound like theyre completely incompetent. As soon as tenperatures drop below freezing, our drivers become so bad at controlling their vehicles, it could literally result in their deaths. Maybe these people should switch jobs if thats the case.

Just a message that they should go home.

Geez!

(2,980 posts)Under certain conditions. Depending on how the freezing endpoint is defined. Depending on the container, dissolved gases and potentially other factors.
Unfortunately, the hot water freezes faster is taken as a generality, and that just isnt true.

(8,948 posts)Tailgating savagely, stopped in the middle of the road for extended periods without hazard lights showing, pulling out without signalling, accelerating away madly and turning abruptly at intersections without signalling ... they're total roadhogs and a danger to all even without any ice.
