Protesters blocking I-5 at 1:30 a.m. hit by unidentified driver of a white Jaguar. OUTRAGE! Wait...
A few days ago at 1:30 a.m. a group of BLM/Antifa protesters were dancing on Interstate-5 in Seattle. Because where else would a protester dance at that hour, eh? I mean, isn't that what all the cool kids do?
Well...a guy driving a new Jaguar managed evade the police roadblocks, got on I-5 and accelerated. He seemed to see a mass of people to his right, swerved left and hit two women--one of whom died.
So here's how left-wing lesbian mayor Jenny Durkan fanned the flames, tweeting that the victims were "peacefully protesting," and that "many others were almost hit."
Yes, the protest was peaceful. But by what insane "logic" did the cops block off a stretch of a damn Interstate highway to ALLOW protesters to block traffic?
Fortunately the Washington state patrol answered that: They said since they couldn't prevent the peaceful protesters from getting on the highway, they decided it was "safer" to block it off.
Sure, makes perfect sense. Cuz every driver would expect the interstate to be blocked at 1:30am, eh?
So...da BLM immediately tweeted their outrage that some (presumably rich, implicitly white, implicityly raaaaaacist) "man" would (implicitly) deliberately run into peaceful BLM protesters--who one would guess were black, cuz "BLM," eh?
Ah, got it. And that's exactly how the Lying Mainstream Media ran with it. The only descriptor of the driver was "a man." ABC tweeted their OUTRAGE about the driver of a "luxury car" hitting these poor protesters, who thought that dancing on the Interstate at 1:30 a.m. was a faaaabulous idea.
Well...as it turned out, the driver of the "luxury car" (thanks, ABC) was black, and the two women he hit were white. And lesbians. So if the races of driver and victims were reversed it would have been a HUGE story, definitely "of national interest," top of the fold at the NYT and WaPo. But as the details emerged, the Media quickly lost interest.
This is my shocked face.
Finally, ABC said the "freeway"--actually an interstate highway--"had been shut down for days due to the civil unrest." No. The state patrol had been shutting a mile-long section down at midnight so the "peaceful protesters" could feel safe about blocking an interstate with their virtue.

Early this morning two women were hit by a car and very seriously injured while peacefully protesting. Many others were almost hit and witnessed this horrific event. Our city stands beside their friends, families and loved ones in praying for these women and all who were there.— Mayor Jenny Durkan (@MayorJenny) July 4, 2020

A young protester has died from injuries she suffered when a luxury car plowed into her and another woman during a Black Lives Matter protest Saturday on a Seattle freeway that has been shut down for days due to the civil unrest, police said. https://t.co/4VN3VeDMcK— ABC News (@ABC) July 5, 2020
