Says everything I need to know about the perp in that when faced with a choice, do I stop and face the consequences for a crime I just admitted or.. run over a bunch of families......this is the choice they made.

Be warned there are videos out there. I got about 30 seconds into one and saw a little girl roughly the same age as my daughter nearly get run over. I couldn't take it. Other kids weren't so lucky.

Probably off his tits on something. What a horrific thing all round.
 
Seems like the dude was out on 1k bail for other violent offences and they are speculating that he caused this mess while fleeing the scene of ANOTHER crime.
Bail reform working as intended?

The era thread is…something else. Some deranged people over there.

I was scanning through, and I knew why there were bans handed out on the first page for "Speculation" and not details of the driver until the very last page....

Resetera now..

The purple shithole wanted to make it political immediately. With one racist poster even saying "sounds about white". The alleged perpetrator isn't white but they couldn't be bothered. They just wanted to be self-loathing/racist.

Then how did the cops miss those shots? :pie_thinking:

Saw some information on this last night, something about fleeing a knife attack. But how do you flee something and then decide vehicular homicide is a good choice.

Go read the Resetera thread.....how the fuck can that forum exist? And as a swede im i feel sorry that a swedish company bought that shitplace. Burn it to the fucking ground!!
I read it. Whats wrong with it? A couple dummies suggested it was politically motivated and were subsequently banned. Most users told those people to fuck off and not politicize it.

As for the supposed attacker, there’s videos of him admitting to sex trafficking in the past. He can rot in hell.

Only after the fact. Keeping up the illusion of being fair and unbiased.
The reactions from other users was immediate, and the nature of modding is that stupid shit gets handled after the fact. There’s a lot of reasons to make fun of era, but this instance isn’t one of them imo.

Can't wait to see how the media treats Darrell Edward Brooks.

Will be fun juxtaposing this to how they "reported" on Kyle Rittenhouse.

For one - saying that one of GOP goals are violent actions towards minority groups and disadvantaged people. I do not like the Republicans (or any right-wing party on social issues) but come on...

The suspect seems like human garbage, the video of him trying to justify sleeping with his girlfriend's daughter is some wild shit.

He basically admitted child sex trafficking. Combined with what he did yesterday, at best he’ll get life without parole.
 
And they got banned for it.
The fact that ‘they got banned for it’ doesn’t address the issue that, that place harbors and attracts radical lunatics, who perpetually have shitty, outlandish reactions to these type of tragic news stories… For each idiot that gets TEMPORARILY banned for a dumb post, there are probably five more thirsty idiots to post some ignorant shit at the next news involving violence and killings in the US.

I live in Waukesha and attend this parade most years. Luckily we were not there this year and the friends and families we know were are all okay.
I hope this doesn't turn into another politicized thing. There better not be one moment of sympathy for this pathetic monster.

It will be interesting to see the media coverage on this in the coming days. Tough to put the typical spin on this piece of shit.

CNN still hasn't said who the alleged attacker is even though it's all over everywhere else.

Just be glad they have their own asylum echo chamber to cater to their beliefs.

As for the incident, a tragic thing to happen at this time of year.

Just a reminder that we had people here posting that several army personnel that tragically died in a helicopter crash.... were actually killed in a firefight with the CIA and German police as they secured the secret servers that had rigged the US election.

And they were probably permed. Not temped.

You'd think politicians/organisers would be smart enough to cancel public events with large crowds the weekend after a highly decisive court case.

This was meant to be a community event. If anything, it brings people together. I would disagree, as WI benefits from these sorts of things. Nobody was expecting anything politically motivated at this, let alone a borderline terrorist-like event.

I hate the idea that we let vocal minorities or one or two bad apples dictate the state of affairs for the masses.
