I'm confused as to why they're blocking the interstate if the police already had it blocked off. If someone has to drive the wrong way up an exit ramp to become their only customer, who are they blocking with their cars parked in the road?

The fact that this driver is black and the person that died was white means this situation is dying for the sweating dude not knowing which button to push meme. I’m sure BLM doesn’t know how to handle this one.

It's too bad that Summer Taylor's life won't matter until BLACK LIVES MATTER.

It’s really funny to me how people just refuse to ignore facts.

So a white chick protesting for black lives matter was killed by a black dude?

Think everyone heard you the first 1000 times, champ. Unfortunately, few people here think your argument is convincing enough to show intent to commit violence. I guess you can keep going and see if persistence is what changes people’s minds.

This. Going up an exit ramp at 1:30 am can be an honest mistake. It's dark and the driver is tired.

Presumably he wasn't going home at that time every night as part of his commute, or he would have been taking an alternate route and known it well.

I can easily see him getting to the top of the ramp, seeing the red reflectors and thinking "oops", and turning the other way.

If it had been deliberate he wouldn't have slammed the brakes and swerved. He also wouldn't have stopped - if you speed through at 65-75 mph you have a chance of not getting caught.

You may be funny to you, but you are just annoying as hell to the rest of us.

I feel for the parents no doubt, but the kids were retarded to protest on a dark road at night.

If someone jumps in a lion cage, it's hard to feel sorry for them.

I get it, those are "your people" and you're taking this really hard. You need a better cult to join.

Not feeling sorry for people who put themselves into a situation where the likelihood of getting run over by a car goes WAYYYY up, is not the same thing as celebrating people dying.

So, what did Summer identify as ....before Black Lives Matter activist became an identifier?

Spring is not an acceptable answer.

And Summer is, ahem, no spring chicken, er, rooster, er, capon, er, whatever.
