What's a few more deaths for a failed policy?
https://www.yakimaherald.com/news/local/troopers-say-suspect-in-sunnyside-crash-that-killed-2-children-wasnt-stopped-earlier-because-of/article_4f184fde-b87c-11ed-8cfc-ffe9397ccb35.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=user-share Quote: A Washington State Patrol trooper first spotted a man accused of killing two children in a drunken driving crash speeding an hour before. But the trooper couldn't stop Keith A. Goings because of a state law that restricts police pursuits, a State Patrol spokesman said. "Under current legislative law, (speeding) does not give us enough probable cause to start a pursuit," Trooper Chris Thorson said Wednesday. Goings, 20, of Springfield, Mo., was first spotted driving east on Interstate 90 at 111 mph a mile east of the Thorp exit after 6:35 p.m., Thorson said. Because Goings was only speeding, troopers could not engage in a pursuit, Thorson said. Roughly an hour later, Goings apparently got back on Interstate 82 near Sunnyside heading east in the westbound lane, Thorson said, and his 2007 Ford Mustang collided with a 2012 Nissan Altima that was heading east, according to a State Patrol news release. Two children in the Altima, ages 6 and 8, were killed. _________________ NO DISASSEMBLE!

Libs deny there is a correlation. It's laughable.
