Off topic but Jesus Christ dude, don't go buying used tires. You're asking for a catastrophic blowout.

Never skimp on things that come between you and the ground. Tires, shoes, mattresses, etc.
no no Jorge says that used Mexican tires have an impeccable track record, no one has ever come back to complain!

Im laughing myself silly at the 3 word comedy act of used Mexican tires fuck me, they must sell those with the second hand Polish submarine screen doors.
 
Then there should be plenty of counter-protests in support of ICE. Hell, you wouldn't even need ICE, since the people should be ratting out illegals to the cops themselves if illegals are unpopular.
People who support ICE have jobs to go to, bills to pay, and families to spend time with. Even if any of them did go and counter protest the world would ruin their lives and they would be put in prison without trial for at least 4 years.
 
You’re not wrong, but this is basically what every hipster says, when you point out that they rail about capitalism, but carry around a 3000$ MacBook and wear ironic 500$ sneakers.
the guy here wasn't talking about frivolous spending on luxury goods, but about necessities of life (keeping your car working)

economic incentives are real, shaming people for responding to them in a rational manner might make you feel righteous, but at the end of the day it's pointless.
any one persons purchasing decisions make zero difference on the overall situation, but they have a large impact on his own personal situation. bleeding yourself dry to spite the spics who neither know nor care about what you are or aren't doing simply isn't a winning move.
it's kinda like arguing that people should stop driving cars because oil comes from nasty arab muslims who hate america and use their oil money to fund jihadi mosques around the world, or to stop buying electronics because doing so puts money in the pocket of the chinks and their commie party who runs glowops against the west.

the core concern is valid (being economically dependent on hostile foreigners sucks) but trying to boycott half the economy on your own is not the way to address this problem, you're literally only hurting yourself. the way to address it is collective action, organized action, political action at the nation-state level.

Enough about tires.

Wish you were here with us, Gehenna. Pour one out for a real one.
Perhaps the thing that bothers me most about mortality is that at some point we’ll never get to find out what happens next. I hope when all is said and done we all get to enjoy some heavenly popcorn and keep watching the show.
 
Depending on what sets he grabbed, he was likely able to sell them for way more than whatever the nigs breaking open the self checkout cash register were able to get.
At current-day prices, any lego set of any size or theme procured by less-than-legal means would instantly trigger the felony larceny threshold.
"Officer, I was just trying to protect these innocent minifigures from abuse at the hands of the true n'gger-do-wells."
