It's finally happening, Democrats blame automobiles for rising car thefts: You just can't make this stuff up. These cars make you steal them.

I guess not. Please tell me how a car can be stolen without human intervention?

Apparently you are too stupid to comprehend it.
They are not keeping crime under control, instead blaming the victims.

LOL! You're really going out of your way to show how political inhibitions can easily portray one as a complete fool.

Calling another person stupid is quite rich when you obviously have your head way, way up there!

"You just can't make this stuff up" is the most i***tic statement to have been verbalized. This is why that i***t Sean Hannity uses it all the time because he's a moron. Not implying that you are a moron, it's just a moronic statement I get so tired of hearing.

Baltimore is a haven for criminals.
Only i***ts can't figure out that it is the lack of permanently putting away dirt bags and not enforcing laws and wanting to defund the police.
All loser democrat policies.
Yet morons, i***ts and slugs blame the car.

Hey, Dave zero, give it a rest. You continue to bore us. Get some fresh material or shut your fly trap.

They are charging Kia and Hyundai with failing to meet an industry standard: "failing to equip their vehicles with industry-standard vehicle immobilization technology."

No, the cars don't make you steal them (and the Dems aren't claiming this), but they lack standard anti-theft protection that a reasonable car buyer would expect the cars to have. It would be similar to selling cars without proper seatbelt mechanisms, or electric appliances without standard insulation on the internal wiring. Something not easily detected until a problem occurs.

True they are not keeping crime under control. But they aren't blaming the victims (the owners whose cars are stolen), they are t***sferring blame to their co-enablers (the auto makers) who make auto theft easier.

Maybe Kia didn't think anybody wanted to steal their cars. 😃

Your feeble attempts to misinterpret the issue are cute.

Quite difficult for the politically impaired folks to digest.

Yeah, ignorance breeds boredom and you're a great example.

You're apparently have no clue what the thread is about or you wouldn't have resorted to such a stupid personal attack, but then that's quite typical of you.

The more you talk the dumber you look. Put away the political hatred and recognize this has been in the media quite frequently and the companies are responding.

So you can’t answer the question? For someone of your self perceived intelligence I figured it would be easy.
