Teen hits and kills man with car, avoids charges, more concerned with damage to car

[I Push Buttons]

Not surprised at the racism that protected white guy. His mentality for should have been in play, just because someone isn't where they are supposed to be, but that doesn't mean taking a human life is ok

Can you people just not read?

- The racist was in the right lane on a highway, driving at the speed limit (55mph), and according to forensics, not on his phone.
- He saw Lewis Jr. on foot in the middle of the right lane ahead of him.
- The racist then pulled over to the left lane to avoid him.
- Lewis Jr. then walked over into the left lane directly in front of the racist's vehicle as he passed, getting hit.

Please explain to me what the racist did wrong there? What crime he committed? He didn't intentionally run anyone over, he even went out of his way to avoid hitting them... He wasn't negligent; he wasn't driving recklessly, he wasn't using his phone... The guy who died caused his own death by walking in front of the other guy's vehicle in the middle of a highway.

Having a callous attitude after accidentally killing someone and being racist (IE: being a piece of shit) are not a crime...

Guy sounds like an asshole, but I'd be pretty pissed to if some random idiot jumped in front of my Car. But I generally laugh at Darwinism Deaths and Man dancing on Highway is usually one of the more idiotic ways to die.

[Akka]

I wouldn’t be sad if he got his ass kicked for it but legally speaking he did nothing wrong.

I'm pretty sure running over someone is kinda "something wrong".

Read the article. It appears to take place on a highway of some sort, based on references to controlled entrances and center dividers. My state at least prohibits pedestrians on them. He saw the guy in his lane so he moved over into another one and slowed down. And then the guy moved into his lane right in front of him before he had a chance to stop. He wasn't intoxicated or on his phone. If I jumped in front of your car and got killed would you say it was all your fault and you should be charged with a crime?

Did you even read the OP? Guy said he hit a nigger with his car, is mad that his car was damaged, and puts a freaking smiley next to his statement that the guy died on the way to the hospital.

Even if you gave the guy a metric ton of leeway for being in shock or some shit, the words he decided to use. Courts I think call it an excited utterance. Surprise someone, shock them, then see what pops out when they don't take a moment to censor themselves. That's when you see what someone really thinks.

You seem be gullible to clickbait titles and lack reading comprehension. What article states and what picture shows are completely different things. Look at photo again.

Yeah, the photo shows he's a racist asshole who cared more than his car was damaged than that someone died, albeit accidentally, at his hand. After the fact he realized what he posted on the internet would make him look bad and posted an apology to try to make himself look better, but even then he couldn't help but mention how he was inconvenienced by what had happened.

And here's the rest of the story:

Dude is still total garbage, but it wasn't his fault that the victim decided to dance around in the middle of a 55 mph street with no regard for his own life.

Irrelevant.
If you cannot hit the brakes in time then you were going to fast.

It does not matter who or what was in the road.

So many assumptions in your post, its no wonder you fall for clickbait. All assumptions to make it fit your agenda.

He is white !!! So he must be guilty !

[Noradin]

So the driver didn't do anything wrong.

Sounds like he's handling it well enough, good for him.

No, it sound like untreated shock.

[lonely zergling]

Ofcourse you are more concerned with the damage to YOUR car than the life of some random asshole that decided to damage it. What else is he supposed to do? He is the victim in this case..

[cparle87]

How about you look at the evidence. He hits a guy with a car, refers to him as a nigger. Puts a laughing face next to the message telling someone he died on the way to the hospital. And even in his 'apology' he complains about money he lost. I'm not sure what 'agenda' you think I'm in on. To be honest I'm not even sure what argument you are trying to make.

Read a couple posts after, where another poster relates the rest of the article the OP "forgot to put in." The guy was driving, saw the guy in the road, changed lanes and slowed down, and the guy moved in front of him again before he could stop.

[anveena]

I really don't see what the problem is. The retard got himself killed by playing frogger for no good reason. Who cares that the driver called him a nigger.

[Ryme]

I get it, he's a piece of shit, but having compassion or remorse isn't a legal requirement.

[CatsNeverDie]

Not even a bit of regret over taking a life. I can't imagine what life/karma is going to show him in the future.

[THEORACLE64]

Oh, rednecks. If it wasn't his fault and it was an accident then it's incredibly unfortunate, but to seemingly still have no remorse or sadness and be more concerned about his car is pretty sad and just goes to show his mental capacity tbh.

So he's angry at moron who jumped in front of his car and caused accident.

Puts a laughing face next to the message telling someone he died on the way to the hospital.

Read again. That was clearly reply to previous message about car. Looks like he received 2 messages within short time, replied to first one with smiley, replied to second one without smiley. Its not a dialog when people take turns speaking, its messaging, where 2 people can write at the same time resulting in out of order messages. Don't tell me you've never experience that when typing.

And even in his 'apology' he complains about money he lost.

Why would he apologise for something he's not guilty of?

[petej0]

How is it NOT a hit and run?!? I mean, fuck, the guy literally hit someone with a vehicle, and then drove off instead of immediately pulling over and notifying the authorities. It makes absolutely no difference if he hit the victim intentionally, if the victim threw himself in front of the the vehicle, or if it was any situation in between... he still hit the guy and just kept on driving. And he KNEW full well, 100% without a doubt, that he hit the guy too. I mean, that is pretty much the definition of a hit and run.....

Please indicate in the story where it was a hit and run. Otherwise I can only conclude you are uninformed about what actually was reported.

Its just like the teens that robed a store clerk while he lay on the floor after he had a heart attack.

[Aristeus]

Seems fine. Person was messing around and got hit. Not sure why you have to put in 'avoids charges' because they didn't do anything incorrect.

They weren’t messing around. They were clearing debris. Maybe thy got into an accident.

Are you delusional? The only thing you go on is n*** word in photo. You call the a proof beyond any doubt? Guess you are one of those crazies that are easy to trigger with one word then use echo chamber of other crazies to conform your baseless accusation because you all get easily triggered and aren't bright enough to consider context.

If a moron jumps in front of my car and causes accident, I would call him/her the most derogatory word as well, regardless of race/gender. Because that person totally deserved it for his stupidity. If you think I'm a racist, you are an idiot.

If I think a person who uses racist slurs against people he doesn’t like is racist I’m the racist? Retarded shit drivel is what I just read.

Are you a bot? Where are you guys getting dancing from? You all keep saying it except he was fucking clearing debris with another person. How is that dancing?

Oh and imagine that, no charges of any kind at all. It is Louisiana though so no one gives a shit.

Why didn't you post the whole story, why be dishonest?
