Got me thinking again, cause of illegal content on site Options

[macavely]

Yes people Mac is thinking again .. I know its been a long time right..

but this post got me thinking why is street racing blocked? , in that thread this post got me thinking

^forum rules
The one that posting about street racing breaks:

1. Keep your posts clean. These forums, like the rest of the site, are designed to be a family-safe environment, and that means that you must watch your use of obscenities. This also means not attacking others in your posts. You must respect everyone here. If you're not going to post something helpful or respectful, don't post. This also means no pornography, sexist, racist, hateful, or illegal content as well.

because street racing is illegal, it breaks rule 1, therefore it is not tolerated on this forum.

NOW IF THIS IS IN THE WRONG SECTION SOME MOVE IT FOR ME>> THANKS

The illegal content part just gets to me. If you really think about it anyone that post illegal mods done to the celi, is in turn adding or describing something that they have done that is in one way or another not lawful. Sure swapping an engine an engine into your car is not going to get you in the same kinda trouble, street racing will get you into. But it is still braking a law (which by the way i think is a stuipd one to begin with).

Just something i was thinking about and felt like posting, not intended to offended anyone, Just get thinking alot right now.

It may also have to do with the fact that street racing endangers lives, and not just of the racer, whereas a mod here or there is a matter of personal taste. However illegal mods can be, what you do with the car after the mods is strictly in the realm of responsibility. Like owning a gun. Its legal to own a gun (of course not available in all states and subject to registeration) but what you do with it is where the line is drawn.
