The Media's Chickens Come Home to Roost in Wisconsin
American Thinker.com ^ | November 26, 2021 | Matt Keener

The child is dancing—bopping around in front of her family to the tune of the marching band passing behind her, as the pompom on her Winter stocking cap bounces right along with her, blissfully unaware that she narrowly avoided death or serious injury until after Darrell Brooks has already sped past her in his red Ford Escape towards other parade attendees and participants.

It is Sunday night in Waukesha, Wisconsin, a quintessential American town hosting its annual Christmas Parade in their Norman Rockwell-esque downtown area.

Seconds later, Brooks starts to weave through the parade route, plowing his SUV into and over 48 members of a youth dance squad, the band, “The Milwaukee Dancing Grannies,” and others unfortunate enough to find themselves in his path, killing at least 6.

Two days earlier, roughly an hour away in Kenosha, 18-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges in a case that many could argue should have never made it to trial. The jury ultimately found what freelance journalists and original source video on the ground seemed to show immediately following the shootings—he acted in self-defense.

In Waukesha, the media’s sins may well have come home to roost.

You cannot draw an entirely straight line between Brooks’s radical actions and the Rittenhouse verdict. Still, Brooks’s social media accounts and online posts make a strong argument that they are connected. They include multiple references to BLM, George Floyd, violence towards white people, and displeasure with police and the Rittenhouse decision.

The WashingCIA Post has never heard of Darrell Brooks, but they are aware a Red SUV killed some people.

BAD Red SUV! BAD CAR!

The left,and Fox news, always proclaim we are a democracy.
But when the outcome of their democracy is opposite of what they wanted
.they go insane..well,insaner.

The media feeds them junk food for the soul.
And weaker minds after consuming this junk food for months on end
..snap.
Their brains are no longer functioning properly.
They are irrational.

“Anchors” from CNN and MSNBC might as well be right in the car with Darrell Broken.

When the Wokesters blame Whitey for America’s evils, don’t be surprised when someone takes it out on Whitey.

Why has there been no calls to ban cars? Especially assault vehicles? You know, the ones that hold more than a pint of fuel? Or weigh more than 20 pounds or drive faster than 3 mph? Why? CARS KILL!!

“You cannot draw an entirely straight line between Brooks’s radical actions and the Rittenhouse verdict.”

Yes, you can - the media cooked up the Rittenhouse story as a racial thing despite knowing that self-defense would almost certainly be applicable in the case - and despite knowing (but downplaying) that the aggressors/targets were all white. They stoked the fires of the race war, no question.

Was the gas tank a high capacity tank (more than five gallons capacity)?

Was it a “red Ford Escape” or a “Red Ford Escape”? It might make a big difference.

Common American misconceptions,

The United States of America was created as a democracy.

Capitalism is a form of government {an evil one at that).

Socialism is wonderful but must exist as a form of government.

(The truth is that anyone who believes in the SUPPOSED great maxim of socialism FROM EACH ACCORDING TO HIS ABILITY, TO EACH ACCORDING TO HIS NEED is free to live by his belief without permission from anyone.) All he need do is simply produce all he is able to produce keeping only what he needs for survival and giving the rest away, line forms on the left for volunteers.

That would make a good “cartoon” for someone to draw.

I have said similar.
In America one should be free to be a communist.
If they choose to be.
Find like minded people and have at it.
In fact, there has been successful communes going back to the 1800s in the US.
What one is not,or should not be,free to do is force others to participate or pay for other’s choices.
