Certain types of youth from the St. Petersburg area tend have a habit of stealing cars and making national news when they inevitably wreck the car while running from Police, which prompts their previously non-existent parents to come out of the woodwork to hold press conferences so they can blame the racist police for the deaths of their little angels.

It's been referred to as an "epidemic" and certain lawmakers have actually had the audacity to introduce legislature that would hold motorists responsible if their car is stolen after being left idling, unlocked. He also said that women who wear provocative clothing should be charged with entrapment and incitement if they become the victims of sexual assault, saying "If you wear some skimpy ass hoe uniform, there's a chance some men are gonna take that the wrong way, and you could trick them into making a serious mistake." I made that last part up. Only a moron would think victim-blaming is an appropriate response to the car-theft capital of the nation that St. Petersburg has become.
