Michael Ramirez for September 21, 2023

Eh ?

This murder did not fit the mainstream media’s narrative – Ergo: “Nothing to see here, folks”!

But what kind of car was it? Should congress pass laws limiting that kind of car on the road? Should issuing driving license be more comprehensive with waiting periods? People being run over by cars is a nation health crisis. Just yesterday in Maine a toddler was run over!!!

I couldn’t agree more.

I heard the story but to tell the truth, I don’t have the details. Not sure how Ramirez got there.

Las Vegas police announced on Tuesday that a second teen has been arrested in the hit-and-run killing of a retired California police chief, whose death was captured in a now-viral video shot by one of the suspects.

Police said the second teen, who was taken into custody Tuesday, is suspected of being the passenger in the 2016 Hyundai Elantra who filmed the disturbing video as the vehicle plowed into 64-year-old Andreas Probst.

“I’m here to talk to you today about a video most of you have seen by now, a cowardly act, that in my 22 years of law enforcement, left me personally appalled,” Deputy Chief Nicholas Farese said during a news conference. “Two juveniles joyriding in a car intentionally hitting and killing an innocent man who was riding a bicycle and leaving him for dead along the side of a road.”

Johansson also described a reign of terror that the teens went on in northwest Las Vegas, hitting another cyclist and car before they fatally struck Probst.

According to Johansson, the teens struck another bicyclist, a 72-year-old man, who was riding north in the bike lane on Fort Apache Road, near Washburn Road, just before 5:30 a.m. on Aug. 14. The bicyclist suffered injuries that were not considered life-threatening, the lieutenant said.

At this point, Johansson said, the driver was the teen who was the passenger in the car when Probst was later struck.

After they hit the first cyclist, Johansson said, the teens then intentionally hit a white Toyota Corolla driven by a man at Azure Drive and Tenaya Way. He said the man was not seriously injured.

The teens kept driving north on Tenaya Road. Near Centennial Parkway, Johansson said, they saw Probst in the bike lane and rammed into him.

Johansson said police investigators were alerted to the video on Aug. 29, after a high school student approached a school resource officer and showed that person the video.

“A very appalling video which lacks morality,” Johansson said.

“Youth is wasted on the young.” – George Bernard Shaw. Or were they wasted?

I agree wholeheartedly!

If you’ve seen the video, you too would be calling for the death penalty. They purposedly drove over and hit him from behind while he was minding his own biz and riding his bike. Hope you enjoyed your last days of freedom boys, and thanks for recording it so we knew exactly who did it.

But they have a long life to live in prison. don’t do them any favors by murdering them so soon. If you don’t like taxes, then you shouldn’t like state murder.

Ramirez did an excellent job of summarizing this abhorrent story in a rather complicated cartoon. Expresses deep feeling about this shocking story. If you heard the conversation between the two youths on the video that one of the filmed, your blood had to chill.

Then a bicyclist in the bicycle lane is spotted by the teens, and one says, “Ready?” The other eagerly replies, “Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Hit his a**.”The teens are heard on video giggling.The driver pilots the stolen 2016 Hyundai Elantra into the bicycle lane and directly smashes the bicyclist near Tenaya Way and Centennial Parkway. Probst is thrown off his bike, then onto the hood of the car before slamming and shattering the windshield.Good luck in prison. I don’t think you’re going to have an enjoyable experience.

Editorial cartoonist should get a life instead of trolling people.

Losing it.

Try them and then execute them.
