ClearedHot Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Absolute carnage at the holiday parade. Kind of crazy that in this day and age we have to speculate a terror attack, revenge for the Rittenhouse verdict or a horrible DUI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaputt Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 From the videos I saw it looked like the car got away, however I guess they have since found it. No word on suspect. Absolutely awful regardless of who and why that person was behind the wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disgruntledemployee Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 I had to go thru at least 6 news links before I found the name, but no pic. Look up the name, and finally got the mugshot. It's fucked up how much the medias hides certain details or pushes something hard. Out 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClearedHot Posted November 22, 2021 Author Share Posted November 22, 2021 So it was most likely wasn't terror, but still extremely fucked up. Brooks had left the scene of the domestic disturbance before officers arrived, and he was not being chased by police at the time of the crash, according to the chief. Police were drawing up five charges of intentional homicide against Brooks, 39, of Milwaukee, Thompson said. He has been charged with crimes 16 times since 1999 and had two outstanding cases against him at the time of the parade disaster — including one in which he was accused of deliberately running down a woman with his vehicle.

Clearly a victim of the system. Only shitty (can’t say silver) lining is the age of the fatalities was all age 52 plus. Praying for all victims.

Previous arrests include a felon in possession of a firearm. Lately there seem to be more and more stories of felons nabbed with a gun that should be doing time, but instead are victimizing the public. It is a shame we can't have Project Exile 2.0--for those who don't know, in the 90s the US Attorney's office teamed up with local officials in Richmond VA. Long story made short, if you were a criminal in possession of a gun, it was pretty much assured you were getting at least 5 years in a federal pen. https://ojjdp.ojp.gov/sites/g/files/xyckuh176/files/pubs/gun_violence/profile38.html You can google for the answers of why the return of such a hard-nosed policy is highly unlikely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone is so dangerous that society can’t risk them obtaining a firearm, then that person should be put in prison/secure hospital via due process. Gun control laws work about as well as drug laws…not very well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeloDude Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 So according to the left, Rittenhouse is a white supremacist for killing white guys trying to harm him, and found not guilty via due process, but this attack had nothing to do about race even though he killed all white people and is an actual racist…the silence from the left is deafening. https://nypost.com/2021/11/24/darrell-brooks-called-for-violence-against-white-people/?sr_share=facebook&utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_medium=SocialFlow&utm_source=NYPFacebook&fbclid=IwAR3xmYB9ZvEcIhb3exArNvbdiEBGnQEjFrSoFk7n3oGPb-5SBHb-A_q9GrA 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 What do you think their motivation in trying to hide those things is? To what end does someone claim to fight against racism but when obvious racism happens that doesn’t fit their narrative, why wouldn’t they cover it? What do they gain or lose?

kaputt Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Just imagine what would be happening in this country right now if a white man had mowed down black people at a parade and had social media posts saying Hitler was right and black people, including old black people, needed to be knocked the fuck out. Instead, it has already disappeared from the front page of pretty much every news agency. I mean look at this absolute garbage that MSNBC has as their top article right this second: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It pushes their narrative that whites are evil and everyone else is oppressed. The left's whole strategy is building a pyramid of victims, with straight white men at the bottom. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
