The crazed drivers are from Qatar and may enjoy diplomatic immunity.
Journalist Jacob Rogers says he tried to ask a man why they were racing and endangering lives, but the man cursed at him and told him to get off the property.
When Rogers tried again another time, he says the man said, “’F-America’ and he threw a cigarette at me and that was before he indicated he could kill me and get away with it.”
Beverly Hills police were called to the scene, but no arrests were made.
Investigators say they’re now trying to confirm whether any laws were broken and are looking into exactly who the drivers are.
Police say the men are from Qatar and may have diplomatic immunity, meaning they cannot be arrested in the U.S. because of an agreement between the two countries.
Steve Sailer writes: It’s probably not a good idea to go out of your way to get the Beverly Hills Police Department angry at you.
It turns out that videos of supercars with Qatari diplomatic plates in Beverly Hills are almost a genre on Youtube: here’s that annoying yellow LaFerrari parked, a nice satin white LaFerrari parked, a Ferrari 458 Italia cruising, and here’s a Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1, and Bugatti Veyron Vitesse Rembrandt Edition parked.
So you can see why, although no doubt the Qatari royal family and their friends would love to do more to help out tragic Syrians, they have to watch their bottom line closely: overhauling that burned-out engine on the yellow supercar isn’t going to be cheap. So maybe, instead, Iceland could be guilt-tripped into taking more refugees?
