A black man killed one white woman and injured another white woman. No mention of race.

If a white man would’ve injured/killed two black women? Seattle would be on fire right now.
would that be a bad thing?

They're not just laughing. They are hoping it sends a message to other protestors. I've seen lots of people on this board refer to humans as speed bumps. Even Heather Heyer, who was killed by a white nationalist. The driver who killed her had several fans on this board.

The other woman struck by the Jaguar, Diaz Love, remains hospitalized in serious condition.

A very good point.

Chalk up another one for the right wing domestic terrorists of America. Make no mistake, driving through crowds is the latest for angry fundamentalist Muslims in England and angry right wingers in America. Boy I wish I could put the two groups in a sack, shake it good and let them scratch each others eyes out.

Being a control freak is Fascist.

What if, instead of a frat boy in a Jag, it had been an aid car with a gravely ill or injured child?

there have been so many instances of innocent drivers being shot at by protestors it's really the safest means to escape. Floor it, stay alive!

Point taken, I changed it to be more accurate.

I agree, protesters should not protest on freeways, but no motorist has the right to administer the death penalty if they do.
Wow, that's not what I saw at all. Let's start with the fact that you have no idea whether or not he sped up, so you are already lying. Secondly, he went around the van and very clearly swerved to the left while most of the protestors were running off to the right, in other words, it looked like he was trying to avoid them. These two women were either trying to challenge him or were simply not decisive enough to leap out of the way.

After that he almost came to a complete stop.
