Ashlee Coronado, a 12-year-old who attends Waukesha STEM Academy was at the parade with her mother.

"We were excited to see the truck with the fire and the hot air with it," she said. "We always get excited for it because it is cold that that warms us. Then right then, a red (vehicle) drove past me and my cousins. He was going very fast and hit a gentleman. At first I thought he was a part of the parade. And then I thought this is real. We were all screaming. We were not even two feet away."

Kimberlee Coronado said: “We grabbed our kids and got to our cars and got out of there. It was very scary."

This version cuts off before/as the truck enters the scene before hitting anyone - no desire to see the rest.

I just googled the guys account and he seems pretty normal guy who was at or near the scene and it definitely seems like he was just trying to make an dark joke about how riteenhouse declared self defense like he was expecting this guy to do so too and then deleted it. Not sure why it’s being posted here or why it matters.

He ran against Paul Ryan I think. Usually seems to be a decent person, might just be upset about the state of his state and posted something dumb.

I mean the parallels between state sanctioned violence at crowds and non-state sanctioned are pretty hard to not draw. I don't understand getting outraged at the statement. Prob not great to air those thoughts as a politician but his career is over anyway

It really doesn't matter, I just caught it doom scrolling. It flipped the idiot switch in my brain that immediately thought "what's his username/which cspam poster is this."

Sure enough, someone made the same joke in the capam Rittenhouse thread.

Impossible. He didn't turn around and run up to a cop to confess what he just did and then get police protection.

I suppose we'll find out when the right wingers start raising money to defend him, or the cops fill him with bullets when they find him.

Lawsuits challenging the rule came in quick succession. Within 10 days, 34 lawsuits were filed, covering all 12 regional circuit courts and giving each of those courts one entry into the lottery.

The 6th Circuit Court of Appeals, based in Cincinnati, Ohio, is known to lean conservative, with most of its judges appointed by Republican presidents. Six were appointed by President Donald Trump and five were appointed by President George W. Bush, while a total of five were appointed by Democratic Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

"Likewise, a naturally immune unvaccinated worker is presumably at less risk than an unvaccinated worker who has never had the virus."

I don’t think these assholes understand science. Besides the health insurance industry doesn’t want to pay out for sick people I’m fairly sure they will clamp down because there’s money on the line.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
If they so much as registered to vote for dems in a primary it'll be fuel for the usual suspects but if its their team it's just a fluke and not at all indicative of an ideology that worships violence

Yep, second reputable source I've seen that motive from. Really loving weird and it really doesn't make sense based on the video footage of the crowd mowdown unless he was that freaked out after running the barricade and getting shot at by the cops. But, why run the barricade in the first place?

Not the first time one of these doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Seems to be the case.

This was pretty extreme though and is the rare case where from what we know it doesn’t seem like the cops were being cowboys, I didn’t see any police vehicles attempting to follow into the parade area where the crowds were and making it worse and the dude was so totally unconcerned with hitting people that he may as well have been trying.

Police were actively shooting at him. I don't know if that started after he drove through the barricade or before.

I'm somewhat surprised that efficacy is remaining so drat high in clinical trials, even in the Delta environment. Wouldn't surprise me if the booster window will be studied and moved a few months sooner though.
