I started the thread. Where did I say the driver was a white supremacist?

As to the unfortunate moron who got run over, she got what she deserved for trying to block a freeway in the middle of the night. Hopefully they let the guy go, he did nothing wrong. In a perfect world things like this would happen every single time our privileged friends on the left pull this kind of BS. At some point even they won't be dumb enough to continue doing it.

Suicide by ideology.

I grasp that you yourself wish the road wasn't closed, but I don't think you can call it ILLEGAL?
A mayor cannot close an interstate highway.

ANd here is diddonuffin, the perp.
Lots of media attention on him, NOT.. Wonder why
I doubt the Progressives will get the irony. Plus they defend a Far Left Media that shows its hypocrisy and far left bias daily.

Hope you're setting out the dinner ware to eat those words in regards to this incident.

This all happened over the lie of systemic racism.

If this had happened to my niece, a nurse, I would feel the same way. This phony cause and those who use it to indoctrinate young minds is what snuffed out all the good and all the potential in Ms. Taylor.

RIP Summer.
I agree that she was already on her way to being someone in the community. A vet tech is nowhere near an actual vet, but it illustrates something in that person that shows they have compassion and empathy, at least for animals. But, considering how many in this world don't give a toss about animals, I chalk that up to a pretty big signal of how compassionate and empathetic at person is.

I do not agree that she "should" have been mowed down, but a post earlier stated that they read the guy was running from the cops. So...did he "purposefully" mow anyone down, as so many on here are saying so that they can carry on for pages about how these poor little protesters are innocent in everything.

They aren't. They were illegally on the freeway. The freeway being shut down doesn't make it legal to protest on the damn freeway - your rights END where mine begin.

Three people have died due to allowing this anarchy, but remember, according to some posters on here, those were small areas, not spread out across the city. Ok, that small in that low amount of time, and already 3 people are dead.

Imagine if Seattle was allowed to go full on with any of this, like these protesters want. It would be far more than 3 people in small areas in a short amount of time - it would be hundreds.

Be careful what you wish for, people. And be careful what you condone - sitting back and allowing it doesn't make you any better of a person.

You edited your racist comment. It’s still bigoted and incorrect. Keep working on it.

Make no mistake. Blocking traffic is the latest for angry alt left lunatics in the U.S.

And they act surprised when they get run over. My heart breaks. And you support these losers. Cheers, mate.

In Texas, they can. A major can order the closure of any public facility due to safety concerns. Do you have a link for WA saying they can't?

States control and operate interstate highways within their borders; just because they receive federal funding doesn’t mean that the feds control it. This blunder is on the mayor (who could arrest all of these people and have the highway reopened) and the governor.

We all know why. I guarantee if it was a white driver, his picture would be all over the major news media.

Trump is right about the media. They are the enemy of the people with their race baits.
