"Involuntarily Childless" is a term I'd apply to people who can't have children for medical reasons and not people who arranged their lives such that they were unlikely to have children.
Is that ideological or biological?
I think it's because they know what to expect, so there's less fear of the unknown. They already know what to look out for, and they already know people inside. Plus, life for an ex-con is pretty hard on the outside.

I wonder if that's really a problem or if it's the same group people getting manipulated over and over.
I can see Google paying just about any reasonable price to avoid discovery in this one.
Cyclists are supposed to come to a full stop as well. They're easy to see stopped right at the corner.
Looks more like a dune buggy with legs than your classic Gundam, but still... pretty cool.
Exceedingly small numbers of civilians hold M-16s legally in the US. If there are M-16s going over the border the source is military or law enforcement.
