Waukesha Christmas Parade

[CountryRoads]

Honest question, is there video of him stopping and then accelerating in a zig zag pattern? That would be strong evidence if it exists. The only videos I have seen show him speeding along the side of the parade seemingly trying to avoid people until the parade takes over the whole street when he ran into the marching band. Either way, he's human garbage who needs to be removed from society until he leaves this world.

Unless the bodies of the victims were all in a straight line, I think it's reasonable to assume the driver zigzagged in some fashion during the course of the very intentional and possible terrorist attack.

There are videos of the driver driving along the side of the road avoiding the people that were part of the parade.  And there's video of him driving straight into the large group of people when there isn't enough room in the street to avoid the people in the parade.  There's nothing showing he was zigging and zagging to mow down as many people as he could.

Don't believe the cop that has to justify why he discharged his weapon on a crowded street without corroborating evidence, imo.

Your assumption is that once contacted by the vehicle, the bodies never moved.

But you know, we have video of parts of the incident, so why leave it up to your assumptions?

I was just saying that the official report made by the officer who was present during the attack seemed reasonable.

Charlotte is still planning its Thanksgiving parade for tonight.

Yep.

I want to be clear, I am in no way suggesting this wasn't intentional. Whether it was weeks ago or moments before impact, this walking garbage made a decision to run over those people. He should be locked up until God comes for him. I was just asking if there has been any video released that supports the officer's testimony. I haven't seen anything that leads me to think that this was a terrorist attack but if what the officer is saying is true, that would likely change my thinking.

This seems reasonable.

Reasonable to assume the Officer is telling the truth. 

The official complaint lodged by Waukesha shows there were at least a few instances that Brooks could have turned off the parade route(and down another street) and chose not to.  Barstow street I believe was one of them. 

[Babybluejeans]

I'm going to a parade tonight in DC area. But I ain't bringing an AR like the wussy thugs that all these suburban boys have turned into, like Rittenhouse or the McMichaels guys or this Brooks fella. Just my masculine two fists if anyone tries to terrorist.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Reasonable to assume the Officer is telling the truth. 

If there was no video, maybe. But so far all the video released contradicts his statement. That at least gives me pause.

[Pakuni]

Cops say there's no evidence this was a terrorist attack.
It can be intentional and not terrorism.

[tower912]

It wasn't terrorism.  Just another terrible choice in a lifetime of them.
Give him an unheated drafty cell in NW Wisconsin in the winter.

Video looks to confirm what they say.  He was avoiding vehicles so he could keep moving through the parade.  If he hits a vehicle it would stop him.  He avoids a car then veers left into a bunch of people.

It must be the holiday season if Jams has a new identity on Scoop.

[MU82]

Terrorism pushes a narrative much better, though!

Unless we're talking about white supremacist terrorists; then it's just good clean fun by neo-Nazis, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and other "very fine people." Jews will not replace us, nu?

They're as reliable as any other eye witness.  Which is to say they aren't reliable.

Also, cops lie all the time.

If you could link to a video of him coming to a full stop, then accelerating while driving in a zig zag pattern, I would appreciate it. I haven't seen that video.

I'm bummed my town cancelled their parade, but I understand it. The odds of it happening again are remote, but I don't know how easy it would be to add security on such short notice or change procedures. If something similar happened and additional precautions weren't able to be put in place, I can't imagine that would go well.

I didn't even think about the Rittenhouse angle, but makes sense. Some of the Facebook posts I see go well beyond a kid using self-defense. Some view it as a guy heroically protecting property and taking people with criminal pasts off the streets.

All in all, it's unfortunate we are in this position. However, I'm not going to criticize those who had to make a tough decision based on a lot of thought and discussion.

Speaking of narrative, NBC is now calling this incident an accident.

Here's the description from their YouTube video:

https://youtu.be/TjoI33r5IQ0

"Video captured by a Ring camera appears to show Darrell Edward Brooks in front of a home before being arrested in connection to the Waukesha parade accident."

Now that's bullsh*t.

Maybe we should wait until all the facts come out?  But this goes well beyond "a terrible choice" or "a lifetime of terrible choices".  This is pure evil.

More narrative spinning from Wikipedia. Redirecting to a page that calls it a "car crash".

And your just parrot it like the mush brained simpleton you are.

Try having a rational discussion without having your mind lead by propaganda for once. Or just ingest ivermectin. Your choice.

Yup. Gets forwarded something that makes him really angry and regurgitates it even though it has nothing to do with the situation.
