Comment Guidelines
Consider yourself a Takeaway contributor. Add your perspective to any issue by leaving comments on the site. To keep the discussion constructive, we have a few basic guidelines:
Be civil: Please respond insightfully and respectfully. There is room for disagreement, but please disagree with people's ideas. Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
Stay on topic
Keep it short: Limit your posts to about 150 words. If you have to scroll to read your comment, it's probably too long.
Review your comment: Think of this as a mini-essay. Good grammar, spelling, and punctuation make it easier for everyone to understand your ideas.
Links are OK, but don't paste articles: If you find a relevant article, include a link or an excerpt. Copying the whole thing could get us in legal trouble.
We welcome your thoughts, but we reserve the right to remove or edit comments for guideline violations, including excessive length. Thanks for being a part of The Takeaway

They have motorcycles that are being used for police departments in New York, in Boston and Sacramento in test program that runs on electricity, that can go 60 miles per hour. Why do we have to worry about converting to natural gas?"
