Michael Bowdre was preparing Christmas lamb for his family Sunday afternoon when a stolen SUV being pursued by police plowed into his northeast Detroit home.
"There was a big thud and then the house shook," said Bowdre, 32. "My first thought was my wife and three kids."

SUV Plows Into Hayward Home, Infant Hospitalized
In reading further in each of these stories the mention of a driver is made. My question is why does the media use the same format all over the country by leading with 'SUV Runs down pedestrian' or some variation thereof? You don't see this when the vehicle is not an SUV because vilifying the oversized, gas guzzling, aggressive, expensive and therefore exclusive vehicles is the main idea. The rich drive SUV's right?
I bet there are even some Christian rich people driving them. Man, what a two for one for our left leaning media if they could work that in. Don't be fooled by such ridiculous headlines that are written with malicious intent. These reporters are trying to send the message that SUV's = death. And it is no accident. Well, you know what I mean.
I gotta go fill up my SUV now.
