In rush to exploit fatal Pride Parade crash in FL, left calls it ‘act of terror,’ attack Gov. DeSantis

Following the crash, prominent far-left activists like Amy Spitalnick prematurely described the suspect as a “domestic extremist” and blamed his alleged actions on Florida’s “anti-riot” bill that protects police and citizens from actual extremists.

Signed into law by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in April, the bill grants immunity to drivers who are forced to drive through a mob of violent road-blocking extremists to prevent themselves and their families from being attacked and potentially killed.

Leftist had to get the narrative out first that this was an act of Domestic Terrorism, most likely by a White Supremacist.

"Terrorism from white supremacy is the most lethal threat to the homeland today.”

Pride comes before a fall,
And a haughty spirit before DESTRUCTION.
God’s Word serves as a warning!!

My bad. It was a gay chorus guy as were some of the cyclists.

Video footage of the suspect being arrested showed that he was wearing a Fort Lauderdale Gay Men’s Chorus t-shirt.

In addition, the chorus’s president, Justin Knight, issued a statement Saturday afternoon confirming that the driver was indeed “part of the chorus family,” according to Miami station WPLG.

“Our fellow Chorus members were those injured and the driver was also a part of the Chorus family. To my knowledge, this was not an attack on the LGBTQ community. We anticipate more details to follow and ask for the community’s love and support,” he reportedly said.

Maybe he was "miffed" at an ex

A driver in a pickup truck reportedly crashed into the participants of a gay pride parade in Ford Lauderdale on Saturday, killing one victim, critically injuring another and reportedly almost hitting Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Democrat.

Where is Ford Lauderdale in Florida?

Thanks Pollard: Fort Lauderdale Gay Men’s Chorus... president, Justin Knight, issued a statement... “Our fellow Chorus members were those injured and the driver was also a part of the Chorus family. To my knowledge, this was not an attack on the LGBTQ community. We anticipate more details to follow and ask for the community’s love and support,” he reportedly said.

Oh HFS:

The driver is a confirmed (gay) member of the parade who told authorities that his foot became stuck between the pedals.

Maybe the driver just fell asleep while waiting for the parade to start, his foot slipping off the brake and on to the gas pedal.

When have facts and data ever mattered to these people?

All that matters is their false agenda: White Supremacists are the biggest domestic terror we face as a nation:

Attorney General Merrick Garland on Tuesday declared white extremists the greatest "violent extremist threat"

And, they've got to "prove it" by false claims.

If this was a parade with the proper permits then the law would not apply. If she did it intentionally then she needs to be prosecuted.

And that's why the story has disappeared from the narrative.

As predictable as the sun rising in the east.

LOL, actually that address puts it near Ft Lauderdale High School and the old Sea Watch restaurant, where some scenes from the movie Donnie Brasco were filmed.

A friend had the parking concession there and at Cap’s Place over in Light House Point.

Parked cars for him for a while after the army, kept me in shape and in beer/gas money til I got a better job.
