“The rioters must have known they were risking their lives.”

The organizers may have been counting on someone plowing through the mob to get some headlines. The individual rioters are cannon fodder.

"Lefties have been looking for another Charlotteville moment, it gave a lot of sympathy to their cause."

Really... I have searched myself up one side and down the other, and the only thing I "feel" is a bit of....satisfaction...

Donald Trump has been proven right about Charlottesville. The call to tear down statues has now extended to Thomas Jefferson and George Washington.

Some people wanted to preserve the past statues and they weren’t white supremacists.

Meanwhile the media tells us that there were good people among the thugs hitting people in the head with skateboards and stomping on their skulls and setting fire to businesses and government buildings and vandalizing synagogues etc.

One named Summer, one named Love.

The ironic symbols of the Mayor’s “Summer of Love.”

EVOLUTION IN ACTION.

Just the first ‘cases’ of the coming culling of the arrogant and stupid.

Nature abhors a vacuum head.

The Gov. of Washington and Mayor of Seattle have encouraged a climate where concerns about public safety are being ignored.

Rioters are called “protesters”, and a s&$%hole commune is being called a “summer of love”. My gosh, what idiots the people who live in Seattle/Washington State have elected!

Didn’t some mayor say it’s a summer of love? Ironic that protesters Summer and Love got mowed down. Summer Taylor died, while Diaz Love is in bad shape. No love lost here. 2 down, thousands more to go.

And the Driver must have been a Blue Oyster Cult Fan:

On the night we ride, this ain’t the summer of love.
This ain’t the garden of eden
There ain’t no angels above
And things ain’t like what they used to be
And this ain’t the summer of love
This ain’t the summer, this ain’t, this ain’t
This ain’t the summer of love

I think the state police said there were no signs of inebriation.

I assume the driver was a “white supremacist.” Even though he’s black.

If I were alone on the highway at 1:40AM (which is never) and found the Interstate filled with an illegal croud blocking it and starting to attack my vehicle, I’m sure that I would have the “flight” reaction at some point.

Btw, the driver of the car was black.

According to the MSM "news" headlines, he was a white supremacist, although with black skin.

SUVs do that all the time. Or so medialiars would have us believe. “An SUV struck another vehicle...” No mention of a driver, who was clearly being held hostage by this tool of white supremacy.

Who were the idiots who parked the cars across the road, perpendicular to the traffic? Surely they can be charged with manslaughter or terrorism. What were the people milling around the interstate going to do to the stopped motorists? Was the interstate open or closed? Where were the police? Were the police looking the other way, like they initially did in CHAZ/CHOP?

shed no tears...

protesting on a dimly lit dangerous freeway @ 130am ... crazy

bums often wander on this stretch of freeway downtown and get hit all the time...

the driver is black (and a bum too).

Here’s a Google Streetview of a random I-5 on-ramp in Seattle.

Note the small white sign below the Freeway Entrance sign:

Pedestrian, Hitchhikers, Bicycles Prohibited

These folks should have heeded the signs.
