2 female protesters hit on the Freeway in Seattle. One is dead.

This one still ranks up there as one of the worst. This guy somehow managed to get up and run away when the gunshots started.

RudyRuetigger · 07-05-20, 08:10 AM

Even though I don't agree with them, I hate seeing shit like this

why did i click

DrunkHorseplayer · 07-05-20, 08:17 AM

He probably wasn't hurt when the car hit him but just looking for a payout; when he heard the shots, that went out the window.

They actually showed this on the news.

funnyb25 · 07-05-20, 08:23 AM

The people in these videos are the worst of the worst. You don't see this shit with normal people

Foxx · 07-05-20, 08:24 AM

Ouch

slayer14 · 07-05-20, 08:24 AM

It ridiclous the freeway been shut for 19 days now, why they have to ruin peoples lives getting to work if no public transport available.

i'm a strongly blunt and honest person. i have no problem saying to anyone "WHO GIVES A FUK?" when i see things like this. you think you're funny, cute, hip, badass, cool, tough, whatever trying to shut down a freeway/interstate/street and block people off? well, this can happen. and while death or serious injury isn't karma for what you're doing.. OH WELL!

Emily_Haines · 07-05-20, 08:39 AM

They should give the driver a reward.

Hopefully the car is OK.

yeah i can somewhat agree with this... although we're all young and stupid at some point... hopefully stuff like this tells other protesters that maybe it isn't a good idea to stand in the street, whether you think it's blocked off or not

funnyb25 · 07-05-20, 08:49 AM

If they were protesting in the mountains and a mountain lion ate one of them, they would think this was unfair as well. Fuk them.

jjgold · 07-05-20, 08:52 AM

They did not belong there period

No tears

MBENZ · 07-05-20, 08:58 AM

Why was the guy arrested?

Carseller4 · 07-05-20, 08:59 AM

Sometimes bad things happen to bad people.

unusialsusp5 · 07-05-20, 08:59 AM

next time they will stay in chaz or chop to do their protesting where there are concrete barriers to protect them.

JAKEPEAVY21 · 07-05-20, 09:01 AM

Agree with you all, no sympathy here.

HockeyRocks · 07-05-20, 09:05 AM

One person has died, perhaps the guy driving the Jaguar will use the "feared for his life defense."

I just hoping the Jag isn't too badly damaged and can be repaired

DwightShrute · 07-05-20, 09:10 AM

The mayor of Seattle should be arrested. 19 straight nights a freeway closed? Chaz in downtown allowed to be a thing? She called it a summer of love.

RudyRuetigger · 07-05-20, 09:10 AM

that news report says the highway was closed

was it officially closed or did protesters decide to close it on their own

that basically is what matters

1 protester dead, 1 injured after man drives into protesters on I-5 in Seattle

https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/2-people-hit-by-car-on-i-5-in-downtown-seattle-during-protest/

A driver plowed into a nightly demonstration on a closed stretch of Interstate 5 in Seattle early Saturday, killing one person and seriously injuring another.

funnyb25 · 07-05-20, 09:15 AM

Mayor was prolly the one driving

pavyracer · 07-05-20, 09:17 AM

I dare them to do this in on I-285. No one will stop and more protesters will be killed.

funnyb25 · 07-05-20, 09:19 AM

Maybe close thread. Entire forum agrees here.

Kermit · 07-05-20, 09:21 AM

I don't think the driver ever saw them after swerving around the van.

RudyRuetigger · 07-05-20, 09:24 AM

those 2 look exactly like id expect at a BLM protest

Worst video I've seen of protesters hit by a car.

They are saying the guy drove up the wrong way on an exit and drove around vehicles blocking the freeway and couldn't swerve in time to miss the girls.
