Time to stand up AMERICA.
He has not been the same after they forced him out of the tonight show. He made BO jokes, thus the NBC bigwigs were told to get rid of him and look what we have.
Actually Leno's Garage is really not worth watching either. I like my cars, but to keep this hobby going, you don't have some super rich guy showing off cars that normal people will never be able to have.

I'm Irish and live in the City of Chicago where they still call it a 'Paddy Wagon.'
Been waiting for my apology from the City for 61 years.

  When different ethnic people come to the USA they often bring cultural practices "foreign" to "us". MANY of those practices are ILLEGAL! Now it seems we can't even talk about about those practices without being called racist. If the USA is SO racist , why not go back to THEIR country?

     It's like having a really bad neighbor who doesn't take care of their own swimming pool, so after their pool is no longer habitable, they jump over your fence to swim in yours!   

     Oh, and while their there, complain that your racist because you didn't also supply them with one of those drinks with the little umbrellas and a straw.

Follow the money he's protecting his pocketbook.

MANAA's Aoki said he appealed to Leno's new employers at Fox, where he hosts the game show "You Bet Your Life," initially offering them an ultimatum of firing the host or MANAA would approach sponsors to boycott the project.

"At the time I did those jokes, I genuinely thought them to be harmless," Leno said in a joint press release with MANAA leader Guy Aoki. "I was making fun of our enemy North Korea, and like most jokes, there was a ring of truth to them."

So the bottom line is he told the truth and is now apologizing for it.

Oh well I guess I'll just keep the pile of original SHOGUN document's I have and the original 001 Production tag. He's always claimed his car was 001 but it's 003. I gave him that tag years ago. Last time I saw the car he still hasn't put the tag on. I guess it ruins the story. The first one built (blue) was Beck's demo. That got serial number 2  because the guy who bought the second car (red) paid extra for it to be 001. Leno's (silver) is 003. Chuck got the tags in time for 4-7 to have them installed. The yellow prototype never got a number.

Elsewhere the Paddy Wagon was referred to as the Black Maria's.

I recall that term for the Police Vans in Philly when I was a kid... but it was more of an Italian area of the city, I had no idea of the origin of that term
I'll try to remember to check with my kids and see what they call those vehicles today?

^^^They are probably forced to name it something like:

"Unlawful and Unkind Fascist-Ruled Vehicle of Eminent World Destruction...and keto tofu bar."

They will be defunded and sold to junk yards. Can we still call them junk yards? One mans junk is another mans treasure, we could be offending some one.

Imagine what the native Indians to North America thought when European settlers arrived...

     You don't have to wonder, the bow & arrows spoke clearly.  Human behavior really hasn't changed that much!
