There’s a family down the street from me that just moved here (Pennsylvania) from California. Giant Trump flag in the pickup, but it still has California plates months after moving because they don’t really believe in following the law.

I need to write this down and remember it.

White boys, that is.

White folx in Texas driving 6000lb trucks modified to roll coal. Nuff said.

What you have to understand about Conservatism is at its core, it is about preserving an in-group protected by the law but not bound by it, and an out-group bound by the law but not protected by it.

Buzzing the cyclists before running them over is the real kicker.

Somewhere, in the conspiratorial part of my mind, the DA is a cyclist, or is close to someone who rides regularly.

And add to that he was driving a vehicle that was capable (read: the emissions systems were intentionally altered) of rolling coal. That’s like he was carrying an unregistered hand gun that he was brandishing and then oops shot someone.

Judging by the bikes, I’m guessing a number of them probably are top lawyers.

Old enough to drive a 6000lb wrecking ball on wheels but not old enough to be charged when driving recklessly...this is Texas for you. I hope the cyclists hires a top lawyer and own this kid and his family in court.

I was a highly aggressive asshole teenager with PTSD and I never would have done this shit. Since there won’t be any legal repercussions, I hope the family is sued into homelessness they can never climb out of.

Texas cares about:
White men, non-viable fetuses and pickups that belch toxic smoke.

Nah, it’s Waller county, heavy trump area. Hell, the sheriff probably gave the kid a fist bump
