Gromdor Posted September 23, 2022 #57 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Sooo.... Has anyone found out if this man is even a Democrat, what the fight was over, what extremist group the kid was accused of being a part of or anything? It would be a bit of an embarrassment if this turned out to be Republican on Republican violence or even Independent on Republican violence. Or even worse, to find out the kid wasn't even a Republican. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man condemned himself with the words from his own mouth. This young man could have been a budding Trump and the guy still was IN HIS VEHICLE and had the ability to LEAVE the scene. What part of that do you not understand? It would be an open and shut case even down here amongst the scary "red-neck" troglodytes where I live. When this thing is finally hashed out in court I'm willing to bet that the killer was drunk, had a political argument where the kid did what kids will do and ran his mouth, and this guy couldn't walk away. He should be tried for premeditation, not manslaughter. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because people who judge without the facts tend to make wrong judgements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can think of quite a few legally pertinent reasons why it might be important. If the kid was a member of say- the Aryan Nation. Something with a history (and body count) of violence.

Short of the kid having a gun, actively firing it at the man, running him over and driving away is a bit (pardon the pun) overkill-y and entirely murder-y. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No argument there. But the only information we have is the incomplete information that has been released so far. Frankly a 40ish old man in North Dakota fits the sterotype of a Republican than an 18yr kid. I see posters accepting this to be politically motivated but we have no idea who is from what affiliation, or whether the original fight was even over politics. I also find the whole idea of kiling someone over politics at a party a little suspect. Over a girl- maybe? Family grudge- maybe? But for being a Republican in a deep red state? - I don't see it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Duck Posted September 24, 2022 #69 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Inconsistent reporting. Quote FARGO (KVRR-KFGO) – The North Dakota Highway Patrol is speaking out after last weekend’s fatal hit-and-run crash after a street dance in McHenry has become a national political talking point. “I understand why that happened because there was a statement made by the suspect when he called 911, but there is no evidence to support this was politically motivated at all,” North Dakota Highway Patrol Capt. Bryan Niewind said. https://www.kvrr.com/2022/09/23/highway-patrol-says-no-evidence-that-hit-and-run-was-politically-motivated/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So men in their 40's in North Dakota have to be Republicans? You are going out of your way to make this a Rep. on kid violent act.

Golden Duck Posted September 24, 2022 #72 Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) Quote McHenry Pedestrian Fatality Update ... NARRATIVE: On September 18th, 2022, a street dance was occurring in the city of McHenry located in Foster County. At approximately 2:55 AM a Ford Explorer being operated by Shannon Brandt struck a pedestrian walking on Jones Street directly east of Hohneck street in the city of McHenry. The pedestrian Cayler Ellingson sustained serious injuries and was transported to the Carrington hospital by ambulance. Ellingson later died from injuries sustained in the collision. The North Dakota Highway Patrol, and the North Dakota Bureau of Criminal investigations are investigating the circumstances and events that led up to the death of Ellingson. Brandt was charged with DUI related Vehicular Homicide and leaving the scene of a crash involving a fatality. Further charges may be considered pending the ongoing investigation. https://www.nd.gov/ndhp/sites/www/files/documents/News/2022-Media-Release/September 2022/2022.9.18.FosterCounty.PedestrianFatalCrash.UPDATE.pdf https://www.nd.gov/ndhp/ndhp-news/2022-media-releases Edited September 24, 2022 by Golden Duck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, there is no evidence that he was conservative/republican at all. They have also said there was no evidence that they had a politica dispute according to witnesses. North Dakota official says 'no evidence' supports suspect's claim teen was Republican 'extremist' (msn.com) The truth of matter is easy enough to find out, but strangely no one wants to wait and you get posters (like above) who are already making claims prematurely. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy's whole defense was that he was dumb, caught up in the moment, and mislead by Qanon and other fringe groups. The jury still found him guilty- after all, it was he who did the crimes they are sitting on jury for and not the guys that brainwashed him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
