Why is everything got to be racism? Why would you say that? Now days everyone is treated equally. Let the past die.
That was my cousin that he killed!!! Jermaine was wearing bright clothing. It is clear that the guy driving the car was speeding, he knocked my cousin at least 50 feet into the air!!! (Jermaine was 6’4) That guy turned on his bright lights and hit him, I’m really starting to think it was on purpose. Jermaine walked up and down that road all the time. He was 32 years old, he DID NOT WALK OUT IN FRONT OF THAT JEEP THE NEWS MEDIA NEED TO STOP REPORTING THAT LIE!!! The guy driving has giving several different stories on how it happen. The guy walking with Jermaine is giving the same one. Is it because Jermaine was black and the guy driving was white????
Is sure seems like there are a lot of Pedestrians being killed by drivers lately. Are the predestrians wearing light colored clothing at night as has been advised in past years? Are the drivers being that careless? What’s going on?
