The person who drove a car into a group of Black Lives Matter protesters in Seattle early Saturday morning and left two of them in critical condition has been identified. The Associated Press reported that Dawit Kelete was behind the wheel of a white sedan that swerved directly into the protesters marching on a local highway, hitting two women. A graphic video circulating on social media showed the point of impact that violently flung the victims’ bodies high into the air over Interstate 5.

I didn’t hear about the warlord. Is that the Raz guy? If so, I thought I heard he was funded by Arabs and had a lot of money...any truth to that?

“...at much too high a speed.”

Give him a speeding ticket and a participation trophy.

In another Twitter post, Larry claimed that the incident was a “purposeful attack.”

Maybe Dawit just hates women.

They crossed the line from protester to rioter when they chose to create a roadblock on a major highway.

Read an earlier report the driver got through a protest check point.

Lemmie guess, the driver had contra band in the car and was surprised by a Police checkpoint, so the driver floored it to escape Police

No big deal since the DA isn’t prosecuting anyone involved in that CHOP thing.

Probably develops an immediate animosity to anyone who impedes his Jaguar.

Yup, too high a speed in theory.

However, considering what these crowds have been known to do in situations like this, I don’t blame him for not slowing down.

Likewise, anyone who standa in the street in the dark, is asking for trouble.

I’m guessing they were betting someone would not hit them, because.

They were wrong.

Maybe next time, they’ll know why their moms told them to not play in the street.

They obstructed a black man fleeing Police

Blocking I 5 a major interstate highway should carry a long prison term.

On the other hand, patriots should block all roads in and out of Seattle or, any of the other troubled spots in this nation until this crap ends.

Starve them, imprison them in their own shiiitholes until reality sinks in.

Had it with this crap.

No quarter.

The protesters who were hit were also identified. Summer Taylor, 24, of Seattle and Diaz Love, 32, of Bellingham both suffered multiple injuries.

Summer of Love turns tragic for Summer and Love.

Mayor Durkan has repeatedly encouraged these dangerous situations, when what she should be doing is PROTECTING the public.

She refuses to take responsibility for the results of her actions. Protesting is fine, according to her, until they protest at HER HOUSE.

The woman's self-absorbtion, dangerous irrationality and refusal to take responsibility pushes her into the sociopath category.

Yes, raz simone. Warlording must pay pretty good because those weapons in his trunk he was handing out weren’t cheap.

The reality is that the white women will pay for the damage to his car. They were in the wrong, no two ways about it. But the black man will need to fight the hit and run charge. His best defense is that he left the scene of a mob. Others were there to help the victims and he was concerned for his own safety. I am not sure if it will work, but that is worth a try. Its valid. I would not get out of a car there.
