now if you the same to them, and they bust ya... you dont have the law working for you.
now there is a good chance they are getting some sort of federal funds to do all of this anti street-racing stuff. and most times, it is a USE IT OR LOSE IT deal and usually they cant use the money for anything else.
Do you remember that one cat with the motorcycle? Rosesetti, I think?

The car is a V6 Mustang (judging from the body kit of one right side exhaust and no rear spoiler and the wheels) with this color http://www.jwford.com/images/bigphot...hive_45061.jpg. So don't go racing or speeding around V6 Mustangs in Fremont.

Legal advice from dictionary.com?
Let me look it up in my Criminal Justice text book...
Entrapment is a bit more then just sitting at light and reving the engine. They have to provoke you to break the law in a manner that a "reasonable" person would be inspired to follow along. Reving a engine at a light, not so much. My grandma wouldn't give chase in that situation. Waving $10,000 and saying it's yours if you beat them to the next light would be entrapment.
The Glossary has it as: an improper or illegal inducement to crime by agents of law enforcement. I essence the officers have to create a crime where one would not have been.
Note: "Merely providing an opportunity for a willing offender to commit a crime, is not entrapment.
Thats why it's so easy to bust Johns looking for a street side booy call. All they have to say is "What do you want, and for how much are you willing to pay".

because there arent a bunch of people asking sacra-tomato for this exact thing.
wonder how they are getting cities to build skate parks? people organize and make things happen.
look at that track over by manteca that is about to open, after years of legal hassles. they had the time, money and ambition to open such a place.
how many of you are just waiting for some other guy to do all the leg work?
how many of you have tried to organize a group to get something started?
i bet the former more than the latter...

yeah your right about the skatepark analogy. But youd think "the legwork" is already being done by people dieing and driving recklessly. Like skaters chipping up marble steps in front of a city hall. Public gets sick of it and makes a skatepark.
some skateparks get put up automatically with little community help im sure (big cities) Just like dog parks, everyone has a dog, so the city knows that if they put one up it will be used.
But someone with the seniority has to step up and lead the way for the smaller voiced people (like me and you)
Arnolds head is too thick or something, he has Hummas and sports cars and is from a fricken Alp of some sort. Youd think he would come up with the idea on his own. He sure isnt helping OHV for 4x4s and dirtbikes thats for sure.
