You must know only feral teens. Not all teens do this. And none should. You are clearly an enabler of this craziness.


It’s not enabling craziness to understand that this is what bored, disadvantaged, young people spend their time doing.

This intersection is where Brent Kavanaugh's country club (whose dues came under scrutiny during confirmation, because it was a huge chunk of his salary) is located. It looks like it was late enough at night that all events at the club would have concluded by then.

I know a guy in his 50s who does these. He’s a doctor with a serious midlife crisis issue. So he’s bought all these cars and hangs out with these kids thinking it makes him look cool.


There's regular car meetups, often known as Cars and Coffee. Everyone parks their cars in a parking lot and people walk around and look at each other's cars. No violence or trouble. People are even reminded to leave the parking lot quietly and not do burnouts and so on. I know a lot of men in their 50s who attend these.

None of them would participate in the lawlessness seen on the video (plus it took place after their bedtime).

Tbe police are in a tough situation
If they chase the cars and a pursuit ensues and the car being pursued kill’s someone it falls on the police. If they chase the cars and the car crashes and it’s a kid, the police look bad.
I feel for this officer, it must have been terrifying.
We need much stricter penalties in place for these street takeovers. For drivers and participants.
It’s not a red state/blue state issue.

It's 2025. These kids attend schools with extracurricular activities, academic supports, meals, counselors, social workers, educational guidance, and caring adults. Quit pretending we're in the 1950s.

Most of these are not minors. Idk why you’re all harping on that point.

How do these disadvantaged kids afford cars and gasoline? Where are their parents? No curfew?

The 50s guy I know definitely does the takeovers! He posts about it on social media. It’s very bizarre. But, he engages in a lot of other very risky behavior, like sleeping with sex workers.

It’s absolutely frightening and also very loud (will shake your house). These used to happen a lot where we used to live downtown in dc - I’ve been caught up in one with my kids coming home from school. I don’t know why it’s socially accceptable to get annoyed by motorcades, but for these beastly pageants we’re supposed to bark and clap like seals. These “men” are developmentally stunted, dangerous and disgusting.

So, as suspected, this isn't a group of teens as OP presumed.

These programs are being cancelled because people do not want to pay enough in taxes to fully fund the public school systems. We needs casinos, data centers, and new taxes to fund the wraparound services that will keep these youth off the streets and busy.

Wow, ppl really are soft. Only a matter of time until innocent bystander is injured or killed....Oh they're just teenagers living a tough life. They're doomed and only trajectory is down - you think tomorrow they'll suddenly start doing their Math homework and going to school?

Send them to the Everglades prison

There are no innocent bystanders. Just people watching these youth suffer.
