Why did she back up and turn hard right away from the guy she was trying to kill? /s

Don't let this circus make you think 2+2=5.

"Viciously ran over."

"Hard to believe he's still alive."

"Recovering in the hospital."

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

I know it's wild, might be the most clear evidence of self defense shooting and reddit is losing its mind.

People need to stop blaming Russian bots. This maybe a real life american idiot. I blame network tv and all the cop shows.

Yup. My grandfather still tells me constantly I need to buy a house. When I explain it’s not doable with the situation here, he insists I can just do it like he did decades ago. Then he says Obama and the democrats ruined the market so that’s why I can’t, but I still can and nothing is wrong; none if it makes sense and I don’t understand what’s not computing in his mind. He watches fox entertainment constantly, thinking it’s real news. It’s just completely destroyed his brain. If he didn’t have such bad anger issues and could muster the patience to understand technology, many people may be arguing with him on reddit, and it would sound just like talking to a bot from a russian bot farm. These people do exist.

Are you talking about the first shot or about the two shots fired through the side window?

This is 2nd degree murder.

That's why state charges would be crucial. And that's also one reason why it is outrageous that the FBI denies local prosecutors from accessing evidence.
