There’s ‘no evidence’ showing that politics were involved in an incident where a man fatally struck a teenager with his SUV following what he admitted was a ‘political argument.’ Cognitive dissidence. Very likely that both of those statements cannot be true at the same time.

If it was an “accident”, why did the victim phone his Mom telling her he was being chased moments before he was mowed down?

Killer (alleged) could say “All the MAGA extremist Trump supporters look alike to me.”

You think the cops will tell the truth? They’re going to side with their liberal masters every time.

Wow! I had no idea about his judgement. Didn’t know that federal hate crime charges could lead to the death penalty, either.

“...sentenced to life in prison plus an additional 419 years in July 2019. He also pled guilty to 29 of 30 federal hate crime charges to avoid the death penalty, which resulted in another life sentence handed down in June 2019.”

TDS is not a defense for unlawful killing.

I heard that A hole didn’t think he did anything wrong. That’s some twisted morals.
I wonder what would happen, if the young guy really WAS a Republican extremist ? (there is no such thing) Maybe the chump would be head of the FBI next week. I am sure he would walk. He still might.

There was definitely a prior interaction of some kind because the victim phoned his mom twice about Brandt. The first time was to ask if they (his parents) knew Brandt. The second call was that he’s being chased.

I think what the cops are saying is that they have found no witnesses to corroborate the alleged “political” argument and no friends or acquaintances that corroborate the claim that the victim was a MAGA extremist.

That first phone all could be an indication that the interaction between the two was more personal in some way as yet unknown.

“No evidence”?

I guess the killer clearly admitting it in his video confession isn’t evidence.

What happened prior to the MURDER shouldn’t matter in this case.

It clearly was not self-defense. The boy wasn’t threatening the man’s life.

He ran a guy down in order to KILL him. -Murder.

Doesn’t matter if there was an argument or not or what it was about.

The dead guy can’t tell HIS side of it.

In any sane civilization, if you get mad at a person because they think or believe differently from you - enough to hunt them down and kill them, you deserve a noose.

I think you could very well be on to something.

This is where they want to go with it all.

Brandt was released after two nights in jail after posting $50,000 bond Tuesday.

He left the scene of the incident and then came back to call 911 , according to a the affidavit, which has been widely shared on social media amid widespread public outcry over the incident, which was initially perceived as political.

Leaving the scene of a fatal accident and then getting bail? Maybe in a small town in ND ...
