.MASSHOLE.Ferguson is a shit show right now. Normally I support the police for their actions but this is a whole new level. It is like it is out of a movie.
Whats going on over there, seen a few things about it, but I'm too lazy to read into it.

Young black male (18) shot by the police saturday. Different stories about reason, one said he was dangerous and threatening, other says he was putting his hands up and shot for no reason. The cop's name has not been released, and now there are riots. Subsequently, the town has turned into a police state. Armed SWAT vans, riot gear, snipers, the whole 9 yards is patrolling the streets. They have declared a no-fly zone over the area for any non-police helicopter so no news helicopters can get a picture. That means any news is coming from on the ground reporters and two as of a few hours ago were arrested. They were sitting in a McDonalds charging equipment and such and were told to leave, then arrested for no reason (according to their twitter). Both work for reputable newspapers as well (Huffington Post and NYT I think).

milk_manPeople go ballistic when stuff like that happens
Agreed, but it is a complete overreaction by the police to bring out that kind of firepower. It is not helping the situation that Al Sharpton is preaching to the black citizens of the area. Some reacted violently initially, but the majority is peaceful protests. It is bad on all sides, but as a governmental force, the SWAT teams and such need to be better.
Pretty amazing wiki page. Everything about their startup, growth, success, and current state is pretty amazing. Sounds like a place that would be great to work at and for.

I was able to attend a Q show when I worked at a shop in MN. It was amazing to say the least, would've been much better had I been of age to consume alcohol. Drive up with the owner and senior wrenches drooling over the catalog during the ride, place your order after entry using convenient computer terminals, browse all of the vendor's booths to nerd out on tech info or just to collect swag, eat your weight in free food, at the end of the day just drive to loading dock to allow QBP employee to load your order into your vehicle for you. All and all it was an awesome day for a 16 year old shop bitch.
If I were still in MN, they would be an awesome company to work for, not to mention all of the biking possible in the greater cities area, both mountain and road.

Made them? Fuck I hope he did it right or you will blinding other motorists unintentionally. Usually HID's aren't supposed to go in stock housing...
