One of the best gags you'll ever see. A professional stunt driver pretends to be a meek woman at a speed dating event. Then she starts crushing fools. Nice job, Ford. There's only been one particular Mustang that I didn't embrace. That's because it was used for unfair practices by a guy attempting to overpay himself at the taxpayers' expense. Just as notorious stagecoach robber Black Bart learned, there is always poetic justice.

The Great Wall of China is not a decoration. That wall, forts, castles, and foxholes were created for protection from predators. People who live in a community do so with the understanding that they will protect each other - or pay taxes to afford efficient protection - from those who would burst the order of the community. When a person or persons within the community breach that pact, they are sent to another sturdy construction called a prison so that they cannot continue preying upon their community.
