They apparently wouldn't let him renew his CDL license. Dude stole a truck laden with rebar, and drove right into the DPS office. One dead, over a dozen injured.

I saw that earlier today. Before they ever said it, I called it as intentional. The whole front of the building and the truck managed to exactly hit the entrance?

Why did he need a license, it appeared he knew how to drive it?

Interesting. Do you need a license for a driverless truck? What do you get? A Passenger License?

Four things I will guarantee:

1) he will do no jail time due to he has yet to receive his reparations
2) you will not see his picture on any national news sites other than FNC
3) somehow, someway they will blame TRUMP
4) he is now on short list of names for baltimore $250B bridge

I specifically stated national news sites for a reason.
I just checked both cnn and msnbc, nothing,,, post up if you find on their sites.
Their sites are 90+% TRUMP BASHING and BS TRUMP lies.

Driving intentionally into a building to cause massive property damage, commit murder and attempted murder, while black. Tell me now, exactly, how is this a crime?

Not gonna lie, while what he did was horrendous, at least he was upset about not being able to work. Which is more than I can say for a lot of worthless people in this country.

No, he was mad that he was deemed unqualified to drive a truck. In his mind, he was "disrespected".

The report did not say why he was denied the CDL.
