Default Just wrong on so many levels

So I am watching The Closer on TNT the other night and one of the detectives owns a 4 door EF Civic. Very clean. Just has the "look" of being in mint condition.

So as they group of main characters enter the diner to eat out walks at the same time a group of Hispanics who are in the middle of an argument with their girls.

Now mind you The Closer takes place in LA (Los Angeles).

So as the main group sits in the diner eating the group outside gets even more heated. The girls take off in thier boyfriends car leaving them there.

And guess what the boyfriends look for a car to steal and they walk up and steal the ... EF 4 Door Civic

As if I didn't see this coming as soon as the first scene of the detective showing his car to be the EF Civic and using a Club of all things as security and then the group of Hispanics walking out the door into the parking lot.

It's just wrong on so many levels.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Yes, stereotypes exist for a reason!
Even I get the urge to steal my buddy's civic coupe every once in a while..

(sorry, I have no idea what the acronyms EK, EF, EG, or any of that junk means)

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

well I am Angela as in chi town brat and nope won't be up tonight, not feeling well.

back on topic ... well they also stereo typed a Honda CRX in a commercial but I can't remember which one

then on Medium last season they had a beautiful 1st gen CRX that wouldn't start for the owner ... yea right

for some reason hollywood has turned a little bit of their focus on Hondas especially those of the EF generation
