      What has? The article literally never explains what the fuck it’s talking about. I would assume it’s not referring to the common English definition of turning on cruise control.

            By selectively applying it only to the people you were targeting, like most racist-ass laws put on the books by white people in the US.

            See: The gun restrictions Reagan put in place while he was governor of California and POTUS.

        I am American; my first language is English.

        I would never define “cruising” as “turning on cruise control”.

        “Cruising around in my beamer” does not mean that I turned on cruise control in a BMW…
