That is the way that the Irish drive
Yeah no sht! I was there, and those narrow, stone wall lined roads, and then a car barreling towards you down the middle of the road and swerving away at the last second.
My joke to the wife was, "Red Leader, this is Gold Leader. We're starting our attack run." (Then I had to remind her it was from Star Wars)

Why did the motorcade have to speed so fast?

Seven years old. Never had a chance at life.
May the Almighty receive him into Paradise with open arms where he will cry no more.

What is she doing in Camaroon? The UN is in NYC.
Well, I guess Camaroon does have oil.

One 7 year old boy?
She’s looked the other way while hundreds of thousands of Christians have been slaughtered in Syria and Iraq. No big deal to her.

And Obama will offer the parents a million dollars for a life.
Of course, we can’t sue Saudi Arabia for over 3,000 because that would be unAmerican.

Its a vip security motorcade. In rural areas they generally go much faster than urban areas. For security reasons.
I can ask the same type of question. Why did the kid dart out in front of the truck?

I used to commute through a neighborhood where kids would make a game of running out in front of cars.

It is possible given the conditions that they were going too fast.
It’s also possible that the kid wasn’t paying attention.
However, I’m fairly convinced this would be handled entirely different by the media with a republican.

Fair enough...
But I remember a few years ago US military hit a woman in Iraq, on video...for similar reasons they could not slow down for any reason. The outcry from the left was swift. In particular a guy named Cenk Unger was raging mad. I suspect he will react differently to this incident.

No question it would be spun differently if it were a republican administration. It would be different if the ambassador was a man as well.

I hadn’t thought of the male/female thing, but you are absolutely correct.

Just when you think it can’t get worse it does.
