So? Anytime you fly on something like a United feeder/commuter flight, most of those people wearing United uniforms are not United employees.

Someone wearing a McDonalds uniform is almost never an employee of McDonalds.

1. The story says this guy is a Fed Ex driver, but that he was driving a Hertz van. I assume that is the Hertz rent-a-car company. Why would a Fed Ex driver be driving a rented van with Hertz markings on it?



FedEx and Amazon both have tons of leased vans. There are a bunch in the parking lot of the Amazon facility near my office. None of them have markings other than the rental ones.

These things are fake 99.9% of the time. The fact that he actually named the street, and it only has 4 or 5 houses on it makes me think this one is probably in that 0.1%. He didn't make up stupid shite like MAGA, or nooses, or swastikas or any of the shite that doesn't happen in real life. Ever.

I don’t care if he was wearing a Santa Claus uniform . It’s attempted murder who shoots at someone but two sick minded individuals. This is a hate crime no use sugar coating it is what it is .
Fed X wonted to give him the same route shows how ignorant they are .

As noted in my post above, they lease shitloads of trucks from Hertz.

So these alleged perps said he didn’t belong in their neighborhood and shot at him?


Exactly. This comes straight after the Tesla BS claims. You can tell it’s getting close to the election. It’s time for the bogey man racist to re-emerge.

Why did it take him several weeks to make this public and file suit?

I’ve heard of Amazon having drivers in whatever they could find and making deliveries but not UPS.


Sounds like the guys thought he was a porch pirate and treated him as such.

He may have been shot at but this isn’t what happened

Shouldn't they investigate first?
They did. The main problem is that they were charged with attempted assault instead of attempted murder and other charges like false imprisonment. They also weren't arrested for 8 days and got out on bail because of the lower charges.

Good news is that a grand jury will likely upgrade the charges if the DA isn't a stooge. The DA's were the main issue in the Arbery case.

I may be wrong, but this story smells a little funny. Hopefully a thorough investigation is conducted, and the guilty party properly punished.

Why they did not call 911? They have a rifle but not a cell phone . They shot in the truck bullet casings were found . And he reported what happened did not wait weeks to file a report.

Two white meth heads trying to hijack a delivery truck doesn't make it a hate crime.

What the frick is your problem? I had a couple of questions and I asked them. If you don't like that, why are you spending your time on a message board?

My apologies. I am trying to post and cook at the same time and I was abrupt.

I was specifically addressing your question about the McDonalds thing.

NO worries.

I had a couple of questions about the story; things I didn't understand. i asked them, they were answered early, and I thanked the poster who answered them. That's the beauty of this forum. Someone will almost always know what you don't.

It’s probably all bullshite.


of course it is, its jussie 2.0 again

he took his work truck in the projects to buy drugs and got shot at, so he has to make up some lie to explain bullet holes in his truck.

well he is a black guy so if he says its white racist maga people he gets to be a hero and gets to keep his job now and if he is lucky maybe he gets a gofundme account out of this BS as well
