<i>Subhash Arjanbhi Modhwadia</i>

If people with muslin-sounding names can have scooters, we have already lost. They will infiltrate and live among us to throw their shoes at us without warning. This is not the America I grew up in.

Should add that Chait concluded: <i> ...But the defendant's apparent ability to operate the car at all while drunk, having sex and being partially in the backseat is a pretty amazing feat of multitasking. </i>

I was confused, as "scooter" made me think of the Rascal variety rather than the moped-like variety. But the scooterist's name didn't look like the old fat white person type. The ability to throw the scooter down cleared up the confusion, as he could obviously walk. Still needs moar trucknutz.

I suspect the scooter was more Honda Metropolitan than Rascal. And "Subhash Arjanbhi Modhwadia" sounds more Gujarati than Homo redneckiensis.

i bet this was actually a collision b/t a cool scooter and a fat SUV driven by wife of mamma's little meathead.

It's a good thing his scooter didn't have the gun rack option.

It's actually a Gujarati Hindu name, I believe.

Oh, wait, knowing something like that means I'm not really American. Sorry, I'll turn in my passport.
