I have difficulty believing a black dude in his 20s would intentionally run over a group of BLM protesters.

He made two attempts to stop, but was force to flee after protesters began attacking his car. The police didn't bother adding a hit and run charge.

My theory: a closed highway at night, cops too busy with other matters, an expensive luxury car. It would be pretty tempting for a guy in his 20's to go for a rip believing it would be clear of traffic.

Lol let’s just ignore the part where he went around obstacles, was obviously driving somewhere he wasn’t supposed to be and ignored the lights of an emergency vehicle

Are you being obtuse on purpose?

But muh cars getting scratched, better runs over some people at 60mph... wtf really?

I just watched that and the first thing that came to mind is how he describes civilians as "sheep" and himself and the other cop as "wolves"

I get that he's trying to help, but maybe he has to reflect on his own mentality first? He should be seeing himself as "a person with a role in society" and civilians as "people with other roles in society"

Not wolf and fucking sheep.

Yes, really if your obtuse head would look back to the 92 riots and watched people that got drug out of their cars and beaten you'd be on the gas pedal and not the brake pedal. Continue on with your holier than thou.FailFishFailFishFailFish

Your white privledge clearly shows having never known fear due to the color of your skin.

The fuck are you even talking about?

Doesn't matter what colour your damn skin is, you don't need to take off down an empty highway at 60+mph, there was no one even near him when he swerved around those police cars and hit those people

Fucking moron

Whites open-carry allowed in state capitol in Michigan, blocking entrance to hospital during the height of the pandemic and barking in the face of cops = Patriots exercising their rights.

Blacks open-carry in street of Atlanta = "Totally unacceptable", "Mob rule".

Put 2 and 2 together yourself. Don't let anybody tell you their opinion. Otherwise, stop calling yourselves "conservatives". Ideology or political leaning has nothing to do with the lack of critical thinking and absence of intelligence.

So with all the lobbying to have food products changed. uncle bens, aunt jemima etc..

what the fuck are they gonna do about "crackers"? :lol

Jmac 07-09-2020 11:41 AM

“Cracker” isn’t really the same as it’s derived from “whip cracker” as opposed to other derogatory terms which were used to describe oppressed populations.

So if its derived from something else its fine? Guess nig, nip, cracker etc are back on the table boys!
Or is it only "oppressed people", but then whites sure as hell aint always living pretty in non-white countries.

Double standards dont work. Negative Racism is negative racism.

What proof do you have that he intentionally targeted protestors?

- It was a blind corner at night and protestors commonly wear dark clothing.
- none of the vehicles blocking the road appear to have police lights or markings.
- there were likey signs saying the highway was closed, but I haven't seen any evidence to suggest there was signage explaining the reason for the closure or warnings of protestors on the highway.
- He seemed not ok with damaging his luxury car by avoiding a collision with those vehicles, also fleeing from the mob when they attack his car, yet he is ok with using it to run down protestors?
- he swerved to avoid the bulk of the group of protestors
- he immediately pulled over after striking 2 of them. Protestors then swarmed his car and began attacking him so he drove off.
- he stops further down the road and is again chased and attacked before driving off again.
- when police arrive he immediately asked if those people were ok.
- the police did not charge him with a hit and run, likely because he made attempts to stop and showed concern for the well-being of the struck protestors.

No one but him knows why he was on that closed highway. Given his age and how I often see reckless driving from young owners of expensive cars in the LM, a closed highway, with assumed little police presence (observing protests in the city core), would be irresistible.

I'm more inclined to believe he is some punk kid with more money than brains, than a black version of Charlottesville.

Now could we not discuss this without insults?

My first post about crackers? clearly a joke.

The second post about those words being on the table, clearly not serious about those being useable.

although nip is probably the most comparable because its derived from the word nippon (meaning japan), it is used negatively,thus is racist.

Double standards? yea, cuz they are fking stupid atm.
