I feel like Trumpism intended for the cops to take the caller’s side.

Mexico under President Scheinbaum's policies is preferable to the US.

which one of the Murdaugh boys is that

jimraff.bsky.social•20 days ago

States are legislating vigilante justice. Putting bounties on trans people, or immigrants, or women getting abortions. This is only going to get worse.

esoorc.bsky.social•21 days ago

He was actually arrested

nesf1000.bsky.social•20 days ago

I hereby Pardon this Great American for confronting an obviously Violent and Deranged Criminal. I am also Appointing him to be in charge of all ICE operations in the South, including South Dakota!!!

deronhuskey.bsky.social•21 days ago

Good, this cunt has been found and charged.

wtgator.bsky.social•21 days ago

That's heartbreaking. Just going about his business when this MAGAt attacks him.

dblusk.bsky.social•21 days ago

He’ll be on Fox News this week and he’ll receive a full pardon.

dcnats.bsky.social•21 days ago

Did the guy have a license? If he’s driving a truck without a license and he got into an accident, that’s bad. Doesn’t excuse the racism but then the driver should be charged. IMO driving without a license is a worse crime than being here undocumented.

shilum.bsky.social•21 days ago

He probably has a license and didn’t want to show it to this halfwit.

dcnats.bsky.social•20 days ago

He doesn’t have to unless they got into accident which is what I thought happened before video.

kaylcraw.bsky.social•20 days ago

Why would you have to show your license to the other party? Responding officer, yes, but there's no good reason to show some anon, potential asshole your personal info and address. Good way to get stalked if they're unstable.

You got some swiss cheese whataboutism, there.

dcnats.bsky.social•20 days ago

Standard procedure in like every state to exchange license and insurance info and not involve cops on fender benders

kaylcraw.bsky.social•20 days ago

Yet the cops were already on their way to this one. Why would he need to produce his DL to a belligerent asshole who steals his property (car keys) when the cops are on their way?

Maybe think about what you're defending, here.

travelingal.bsky.social•20 days ago

The guy driving the truck had a license. He wasn’t cited by the police. The person harassing him made the assumption that even
if the driver had a license it
was not valid because of his race.

itchybitchy.bsky.social•20 days ago

Red states changed their laws to require proof of citizenship/immigration status to apply for driver’s license. That resulted in more unlicensed (and therefore, uninsured) drivers on the road.

jjmadden.bsky.social•21 days ago

sffcorgi.bsky.social•21 days ago

This is your takeaway??

dcnats.bsky.social•21 days ago

Not my only takeaway. If he had just taken the keys and not been racist — I’d be cool with that though. If the guy didn’t have a license.

richmath.org•20 days ago

If you assume someone doesn't have a driver's license, you get to steal from them?

What if you think someone's shoplifted? Can you make them be your butler?

cbowers.bsky.social•20 days ago

How would the racist know whether or not the driver has a license? Think about it nice and slow

dcnats.bsky.social•20 days ago

Again, my post was assuming they had an accident. Then the driver would have to show. If he’s just randomly attacking him bc Hispanic, that’s different,

sighkeynot.bsky.social•20 days ago

In the few accidents I have personal experience, insurance information, not drivers license, is what you show. Did you miss the fact that the police found no reason to charge the driver? Glad to know you think it’s ok to steal on assumption based on faulty reasoning. smh

cbowers.bsky.social•20 days ago

Weird assumption given that the only evidence we have is the racist being a racist.

Still, even if there was an accident, your protest of minor violations of the law rings hollow when you support multiple felonies

kenwhite.bsky.social•20 days ago

If you are cool with taking the keys of people who don’t have a license, sooner or later Find Out Is gonna meet your Fuck Around

paddleman.bsky.social•20 days ago

So you’re okay with a person taking someone else’s keys out of the ignition …. Because they didn’t show a random yutz their licence?

In many states … you try that shit and people in the truck could shoot you… and it would be justified. Licence or not.

dcnats.bsky.social•20 days ago

Random yutz no. Did they get into accident? Wasn’t clear.

paddleman.bsky.social•20 days ago

.... the guy was charged with impersonating a cop....

sffcorgi.bsky.social•20 days ago

If the police investigating the incident didn't find cause to arrest him, I'm fine with that. 'Citizen's Arrest' is far too dicey to allow currently.

parisdog.bsky.social•20 days ago

he's not a cop. he's got no business taking keys or determining driving status.

dylanreeve.com•20 days ago

How does some random dude know if any other person has a license? They have no authority to demand it be produced. It is, in short, none of his fucking business.

thontaddeo.bsky.social•21 days ago

How does the perpetrator know he doesn't have a license?

Would you like it if some random person stopped a family member and treated them this way?

davemayhem.bsky.social•20 days ago

The driver was not charged with anything when police arrived so odds are he did indeed have a licence. Now seeing as how the driver doesnt speak english and that racist trash has no spanish I'm at a loss as to how the shitweasel would know if the driver had a licence.

davemayhem.bsky.social•20 days ago

It's all in the linked article. But are pal, pop off.
My guess is he assumed the driver was an illegal immigrant and this incapable of getting a licence and didnt feel he needed any evidence.

ravva.bsky.social•20 days ago

Kidnapping. Oops.

This is like a fucking cartoon. In real life.

staidwinnow.cultofsundries.com•20 days ago

Not yet. The cops busted the patriot and let the illegal go.

That's backwards.

sighkeynot.bsky.social•20 days ago

And you know his immigration status how? Good to know you don’t believe in the Constitution or the Rule of Law, fascist.

katefromnyc.bsky.social•20 days ago

This seems not in keeping with your other posts, but not obviously sarcasm either. Curious.

staidwinnow.cultofsundries.com•20 days ago

Obviously?

Trumpism would be the cop busting the victim and letting the racist go, right?

mourningdovetail.bsky.social•20 days ago

That's no patriot; that's a little twerp with a bug up his ass.

sighkeynot.bsky.social•20 days ago

Dingle berry. He clearly doesn’t know how to clean his ass.

My neck of the woods. If I see dude around, he’ll be going back to hell.

seytom.bsky.social•20 days ago

The composure and restraint of those Hispanic men is amazing.

letgar62.bsky.social•20 days ago

He’s not even talking crap about him. All he’s saying is that he’s been stopped and his keys were taken. He just wants his boss to know.

sfrazer.bsky.social•20 days ago

You’re not kidding. I like to think I’m not a violent person but I am wishing bodily harm on that fucking douchebag so much.

catmcfeline.bsky.social•21 days ago

And folks want to know why we aren't taking to the streets in protest. Half the country is frothing for violence.

Ffs.

aunthoolia.bsky.social•20 days ago

He's put a target on a lot of innocent people's backs. And some not so completely innocent, but not deserving of this.

thomashorine.bsky.social•20 days ago

It is really weird that the article reports this as if it is confirmed (or really not even questioned in the first place) that the one driver was unlicensed. Even if the driver is in fact unlicensed, what is their basis for that?

staidwinnow.cultofsundries.com•20 days ago

Same as asking if DEI was to be blamed for an airplane crash.

nonnylynda.bsky.social•20 days ago

All media, especially legacy, have been wholly owned since 2022 by trump donor, right wing acquisition broligarchs, but also most local news stations (owned by Sinclair), so there is no "left wing media" they keep blaming for "fake news" when the actual truth about them skips through.
It's GONE!

chrischoptain.bsky.social•20 days ago

so, if the driver wasn't charged with no license, that means this guy just randomly decided to demand his DL.

who the actual fk do these ppl think they are?

The fact he wasn't picking his teeth up off the pavement is some serious anger management master class by that young man.

They haven't even mentioned him. Probably because they don't have their talking points from the White House yet.

Short of sending his personal militia to storm the town his hands are tied because these are local charges.
