Less hostile when in context.

Cars are already subject to noise restrictions. So effectively loud cars are banned. There is just little enforcement for most of it.
Let's refocus the police funds of shooting or falsely arresting POC, and instead ticketing and enforcing the loud car situation.
Who needs cops? I believe CA passed a bill to trial automatic enforcement of this issue last year. Detects excessive noise and photographs the license plates just like speed cameras.
I’m waiting to see where they will trial it. I haven’t heard anything recently.
Agreed. Take 90+% of their funding, and use it for preventative measures instead.
Is that true? They still send them out.
This article says the opposite though.
I am not a lawyer and I have wondered about the constitutional questions of these. But according to this the courts have largely allowed them.
Now it seems like you are reaching. Ballot initiatives have nothing to do with whether they are constitutional or not.
Our po-po don't shoot POC (generally) but we still have loud cars.
I know what I'm saying is not objective data, but where I live I hear a ton of motorcycles that are tweaked to remove the silencers and noise protections
