Passenger side agent literally pointing and telling her where to move to

that agent charged her door 2 seconds later

driver charged her door. passenger in the pickup got out and pointed, then stood there. *
Posted by VIV
|
ah, well fuck that guy then*
Posted by assassin
|
The "passenger side" agent charged her door? I don't remember ever seeing that*
Posted by jjlocke923
|
Wasn't that the one yelling at her to get out of the car? Or whatever was being yelled?*
Posted by gvibes
|
driver yells at her to get out of the car and tries the door handle*
Posted by VIV
|
No he's not. You've been terrible on this.*
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
“Ma’am, get out of the way of our travel.” While pointing.
Posted by VIV
|
That's not what he says and is he pointing her down the wrong way of a one way street?
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
what's he saying? why is he pointing (or is he sending his heart out to her Elon-style)?
Posted by VIV
|
She was in the middle of the street perpendicular (for 3 minutes according to CNN)
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
Yet somehow the SUV in front of that pickup is able to go around by magically driving to the left.
Posted by VIV For example: https://mb.boardhost.com/TheDeuce/msg/1767889477.html
|
So what was she doing in the middle of the street perpendicular for 3 minutes? What was her goal?*
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
Why does it matter?
Posted by Chicago1995
|
Honestly, it matters because it demonstrates why the shooter was so enraged.
Posted by doubledown
|
It doesn't.
Posted by IlliniRunner
|
It matters because VIV's being an asshole*
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
Resent his intrusion into your territory then. *
Posted by larue33

are you new here?*

Yet you're the one of the few that can pull me back when I'm going full asshole.*

Phrasing.*
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
I'm okay with it.
Posted by KingTalkyTiki
|
no idea. be annoying? make things harder on them? i can only speculate.
Posted by VIV
|
Watch the beginning of the shooter's video. She is farther out in the street and blocking traffic.
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
you can actually watch a video with the suv passing in front of her
Posted by VIV
|
So you didn't watch the beginning of the shooters video where you can watch her backup so that cars
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
Simple question- did an SUV go around her car or not?
Posted by VIV
|
After she backed up? Yes. Before that? She was attempting to block traffic. Please stop.*

This is way more about being into demonizing black immigrants*

We're so fucked
Posted by Sounder Asked in a wide-ranging interview with The New York Times if there were any limits on his global powers, Mr. Trump said: “Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”

hopefully that includes a massive stroke in his mind*

Yep. Didn’t get the 2/3 needed even though the initial vote to pass was well above that.

The perfect encapsulation (with the Trump NYT story) of why we needed to burn the GOP down*

This is the thing that was unanimous in both House and Senate prior?*

He went to Yale so it's highly unlikely he ever learned the actual law*

It might apply here when all is said and done.

I was genuinely answering. And it didn't go anywhere. But he was investigated and charged*

Of course, the truth doesn't matter those fucking idiots*

I wonder if he even did that
