The same posters who were ready to hang Rittenhouse for "murdering 3 black men" are now demanding we "wait and see" why a black career criminal drove his SUV thru a parade of mostly white folks, killing and injuring dozens. It may have been a defective brake pedal, after all.

For example:
I guess his brakes failed? Only the gas pedal worked?
He was going FAST, and if I’m seeing the video correctly, he stopped in the middle of the crowd? Didn’t continue forward doing the maximum damage? I’ll watch it again to see when the brake lights first come on.
Don't go cheerleading that one just yet. You missed out on the thread last night about this topic, where several people, including this one, immediately pinned this on a white guy, some of them saying snotty things about that guy, and MAGA, and Trump, and other nonsense - because they had no idea who 'Sam Hyde' is.
Who the hell do you think I mean by WE? I mean EVERYONE.
I posted that message to someone who I disagree with almost all of the time. Someone who I hope now WILL GET IT. EVERYONE is guilty of this and it's a good time to sit back just a minute and recognize that. The only thing that changes is which direction the knees jerk.
I have a higher goal in our political discourse than "but they were wrong last time, now it's my turn!"
I think this situation is likely to be a little more muddled and complex than the early hysterics will account for. We don't have to know the whole truth now... Just don't say something you might be shown to be wrong about later. Easy :-)

Yes. And now they’re on here saying how “sad” and “awful” it is, but it was all just a tragic accident.

I saw it. now those posts are all down the memory hole.

It's funny how leftists put away their pitchforks and call for measured, reasonable actions when it's a black person who caused the atrocity. It usually just means they are trying to buy time for the spin machine to wind up. I say you should lead by example the next time the shoe is on the other foot. Words are cheap.
His Facebook posts confirm he hates white people and wants violence to come to them. He made sure to include old white people too.
Gotta love "logic" these days:
Person 1 : white guy shoots white guys in self defense at a riot that contains large numbers of folks who are supposedly there to support a black cause.
Conclusion: white guy is a "white supremacist"
Person 2 : black guy mows down a bunch of white folks and has social media posts, self written rap songs, etc expressing racist views
Conclusion: now hold on, let's not jump to conclusions, we can't assume it's racial, it was just the continuation of an existing crime so therefore not a big deal.
