I was agreeing with you, just making a sarcastic point..

I don't know, I would imagine ferraris and lambos, but I can't see them but you can hear one car from most of kowloon peninsula where everyone is packed in tight and its otherwise quiet at night.
sometimes Japanese r(a/i)cers are noisy two, but those are with stupid exhausts that sounds like someone left a phone next to a massive subwoofer with the power on

Would not like that one bit. I used to live in Ma, where the streets are just barely big enough for 2 cars and I there are two idiots playing chicken right in front of my house that side swiped 2 of my neighbors cars opposite of me and took off.

they are allowed up to 4 wives so they can keep doing this under pretense they are looking for their next wife.
I've seen this. They send their veiled wive to shop with her overseer at the most expensive shops, while they go doing this. The men party, the women stay home.

No one is against supercars, people are against jackasses driving the said supercars. But saying "we are against Arabs" wouldn't sound politically correct, so they make it sound like it's an issue with the cars.

Also anyone noticed how one guy said the Great Britain is basically poor because there are casinos, bars, etc. BUT the main reason they go there is to go to all those places and party.

So many supercars

Do the residents not realize it is their wealth that helps the city's Economy and London? If the politicians would to do anything their economy would take a hit. That is one reason I believe the cops are not obliged to do anything and if a resident would to do that, they would get hit...hard! Sucks to be a resident there but seems the only way out is to suck it up.

Its the same situation here in Canada, except gas prices are even higher. I wish it was a "petrocracy" like Venezuela, where gas can by bought for 0.13 cents per gallon!

so then, it is the US gov's fault for hoarding and buying arab gas?
also, use the bus/metro.

Also, I strongly doubt that in their shareholder meeting (or whatever) the points raised on why they should charge more is "being a tool in London".

You just sound jealous of their wealth.
