Could have a point. If the road signs are printed really fast, some minority slow readers (move lips and sound out words) might have trouble reading them and cause accidents.

The only thing we could go after was his car insurance company. We did but the settlement was puny. The guy had very little. The detective assigned to the case was wonderful and spent a lot of time with my son and said his hands were tied thanks to DA Gascon. He was killed in CA. and we live in MA. Friends who are in law enforcement said he would not have walked in most other jurisdictions.

The underlying message, with which liberals and POCs vehemently agree, is that traffic regulations—and laws and any kind of regulations—are inherently racist. The concept of an orderly society with rules and social norms is designed to perpetuate white supremacy.

Even the signs are racist - this Don't Walk sign only applies to black people, dontchaknow.

There is a clothing designer who lost her suitcase in an airport in 2018. She realized the airport was not to blame when she saw the luggage thief posting pictures of itself in her one of a kind designs on Twitter. She posted several pictures of him in her outfits and jewelry. To me, that dude personifies the Biden administration.

Specifically, according to Buttigieg, "black and brown Americans, tribal citizens, and rural residents" are "much more likely to lose their lives — whether it's in a car or a pedestrian being hit by a car."

There are fewer urban fatalities because it is more difficult to have a fatal accident in a traffic jam.

In the country, there are no cross-walks, because there are fewer intersections. That is racist. Miles and miles of farmland are racist. Miles and miles of grazing land are racist./s

The Democrats are all nuts, and they complain about Republicans. Members of the Administration shouldn’t be making ridiculous statements. The statements become facts. This supports another false narrative.

Pete Buttigieg is a very special type of moron.

Is he a natural moron, or does he have to work at it?

Bingo! I point that out to my wife every time we are on the interstate. it also applies to the BMA who decided to ignore the stop sign while driving a bank car with no insurance before crossing the highway and plowing into my drivers door. Fortunately an other BMA told him to hug this trap as the collision was his 100% fault.

Well he has a point. White lines on one side, yellow on the other, makes racist blacks so angry they can’t drive straight or drunk. All the speed signs are white. Stop signs red and white. They can’t read, so filled with hate.
