    Prius Schmius.

    The big 'Yikes!' for me, being near Seattle, is that he was never prosecuted for his gun crime here, due to miscommunication somewhere between police and prosecutors. And when investigators for his security clearances finally learned of the arrest he didn't disclose, SPD refused to release the incident report, so the federal investigators knew only that he deflated some tires, not that he did so with a gun.

    So many warning flags, already actionable until existing law, wasted by bureaucracy.

    :rolleyes:

    Somehow I don't think this one is going to stick.
    We do have our little PR problems, but I really don't think that people are going to associate Prius Drivers with mass shootings.

    Wasn't there a white Prius that was somehow involved in the Boston bombings? I remember seeing it in a lot of the footage.

    Before that. When they were thought to be on a campus, and there were very long shots of nothing happening, and there was a white Prius in the foreground.
