    Green 666 by isotope rays is NOT forgivable; it leads to permanent hell. 666 is given with World Passport with no name on it (grey plastic card). Police 666 people on highways. Food stores and prisoners/insane asylum folks (released by the antichrist) 666 people too. Reject vaccines. Don't go into UFO to be “healed” by evil demons. Hide with Orthodox Christians to escape 666; leave all electronics behind so that antichrist's minions can't track you; burn documents as documents are from Satan.

    Source(s): According to the Last Prophet (aka incarnated ARCHANGEL URIEL aka saint healer VYACHESLAV KRASHENINNIKOV) if the last descendant rejects mark of the beast, then his/her direct ancestors go to permanent heaven. To reject mark of the beast, one needs to hide within a 10-15 people group without electronics/documents. Documents are from Satan; burn them. Electronics can be used to track you and to show the antichrist (even on old broken unplugged TV set from 1970's using Tesla's ether); forgive me.

    First, there's no "E brake" on any vehicle. There is a parking brake that you are supposed to set when you park the vehicle even if it is an automatic transmission most importantly if you are parked on a grade or slope. 

    No parking brake can be used as an "emergency brake" to stop a vehicle, it simply wasn't designed for that and is totally inadequate for such a purpose.

    You may have burned up what was left of the parking brake shoes, also, when you reach the boiling point of the brake fluid you will have bubbles in the brake line and or brake caliper and or brake cylinders. You'll have to have the brakes inspected and have the fluid bled out of the system to get the air out.

    Your e-brake cables are seized in their housing. You likely have a brake fluid leak and the brake fluid was burning on the exhaust pipes. The e-brake didn't cause the brake pedal to go down. Put the car up on a lift and check all the brake lines for leakage.

    You smoked your brakes. Get them inspected ASAP.

    So, you probably badly overheated the rear brakes and the seals in the rear brake cylinders probably failed.

    You have worn out your rear brake pads. Time to have new brakes pads and more than likely new rotors installed on the rear of your vehicle.��
