Six migrant workers were struck Sunday afternoon by an SUV in a Walmart parking lot in North Carolina from what police are calling “an intentional assault with a vehicle.”

    I lived very close to there last year. The motivation is clear. People in that part of the world are armed and hate everything. Literally all they do is stockpile ammo and wait “for the fall of society”.

    I know I sound hyperbolic, but I’ve met lots of them. It’s part of why I left. They want to establish a white conservative mob rule.

      People probably think you’re just exaggerating, but no. This is a very common personality for rural white men to have. It’s their “protect my kin” fantasy of the government and minorities cresting the horizon coming to take their freedom away so they can go out in a blaze of glory.

      In reality, most of them wouldn’t be able to get a shot off before they knew what was happening.

        Most of them can’t walk a mile much less mount an actual assault. I live in somewhat rural NC and the majority of this vocal minority are out of shape nobodies that live in very strange echo chambers.
