Wild video shows a man getting mowed down by a souped-up sports car doing donuts in Lower Manhattan over the weekend. The unidentified victim, 23, was filming the driver's dangerous stunt at the intersection of Vandam and Greenwich Streets in Hudson Square at around midnight when he was run over and left in critical condition, cops said. Horrifying surveillance video shows the man accidentally trip and hit the ground directly in the path of the vehicle's front wheels after attempting to get a closer angle of the car and its daredevil maneuvers.(Snip)The man suffered a fractured skull, a brain injury and severe trauma to the body

Good catch, OP. Some years back, many sported a Mr. T air freshener. Consider the notion of THAT.

Well, if you're stupid enough to film a souped up car during donuts in the street, you get what you bargained for.

I am offended by the description of the injured person as a "man." Aren't we past the stage where we must identify people by sex/gender? Why couldn't they have used words like, "non-birthing person," or "soon-to-be-vegetable person"? How offensive to describe the injured person as a "man." Why couldn't they have used non-sexist terms like, "non-birthing person," or "soon-to-achieve-vegetative state" person? Sad! sad!

"Light skinned"? Is THAT what we're calling it now? It was a black man. But in this context it doesn't matter what the driver's race is-I see PLENTY of blame to go around. For starters, the crowd watching the action seemed pretty ok with it. I couldn't tell from the video if anyone in the crowd was urging the people standing right on top of the car (!?!?!) and filming it as it spun donuts to exercise caution but I'm guessing NO. The driver, the crowd, and the poor fool who tripped all have themselves to blame for this.

New York Times reporter and creator of the 1619 Project Nikole Hannah-Jones stirred up controversy on Twitter Monday when she claimed in a since-deleted tweet that 'tipping is a legacy of slavery,' sparking an argument with an historian she claims is 'obsessed' with her. 'Tipping is a legacy of slavery and if it's not optional then it shouldn't be a tip but simply included in the bill,' Nikole Hannah-Jones tweeted Monday. 'Have you ever stopped to think why we tip, like why tipping is a practice in the U.S. and almost nowhere else?'

Despite initially ruling out terrorism, officials have now said that radical Islam, not mental health issues, was the likely motivation for a Syrian knifeman’s stabbing spree on a German train. There are “serious indications” that a migrant man who went on a knife rampage in Germany back in November was inspired by radical Islam, the local prosecutor’s office has reportedly said.(Snip)Prosecutors also believe the 27-year old rejects the very notion of a Western democratic nation, with Die Welt saying that the man seemingly “disregards all Germans”.

Stockholm–Two teachers were killed by a student at a high school in southern Sweden, police said Tuesday. The 18-year-old student was arrested at the scene on Monday in Malmö, Sweden´s third-largest city. The victims were two women in their 50s, police said. The suspect wasn’t previously known to the police and had no criminal record, and police didn’t disclose how the teachers were killed. A motive hasn’t been established. “For now it is far too early to comment on that,” Malmö Police Chief Petra Stenkula told a news conference. She said officers arrived and found the suspect and two victims on the third floor

A man who has been continually caught driving without a license was jailed Tuesday after being charged with straying onto the shoulder of a south metro road and fatally hitting a bicyclist. Trejean D. Curry, 26, of Minneapolis, was charged in Dakota County District Court last week with criminal vehicular homicide in connection with the collision on Oct. 25 in Rosemount that killed the Rev.

Dempsey, 73, was struck from behind by Curry while both were heading west on County Road 42 near W. 145th Street. Dempsey died at the scene.

Parents are pushing back after Disney announced plans for a task force to include more LGBTQ content in its films and TV shows as the company simultaneously faces a massive employee walkout over its response to Florida's 'Don't Say Gay' bill. In a town hall meeting on Monday, CEO Bob Chapek said the entertainment behemoth would put together a task force to ensure that more LGBTQ-awareness content is available for children. On Friday, reports emerged that Disney was reinstating a kissing scene between two women in the upcoming 'Toy Story' spinoff 'Lightyear'—after Pixar employees accused the parent company of cutting gay characters from films.

The Securities and Exchange Commission unveiled a landmark proposal Monday that would require publicly traded companies to disclose emissions data and risks posed by climate change. The proposal, which must undergo a 60-day public comment period before the SEC makes it final, would be a first of its kind and mark yet another arena where the Biden administration hopes to combat a warming climate. It also underscores the administration’s concerns about climate change’s potential impacts on the economy. The idea faced immediate pushback from Republican lawmakers and industry groups. They said the regulators had overstepped their authority and would spread confusion through corporate offices and on Wall Street.

We saw how his White House reached out to “brief” about 30 TikTok “influencers” on the Russian war against Ukraine. We later saw the result of that “briefing”, which was about selling why it was Vladimir Putin’s fault that the gas prices were going up, not Joe Biden.

A Boeing 737-800 passenger jet operated by China Eastern Airlines has crashed in rural China, presumably killing all 132 souls aboard. Video of the plane nosediving into the ground and the aftermath has emerged. As is expected with any video of this kind, viewer discretion is advised. Much is unknown at this point, but I am a commercial multi-engine pilot and a flight instructor so I can add a few points of speculation to ponder. According to the flight data available, the rapid descent started at around 30,000 feet. That would point to either a structural failure that caused a loss of flight controls or a high-altitude stall

A former Google employee filed a class-action lawsuit in a San Jose, California, federal court Friday alleging systemic bias against black employees and a corporate culture preferring white males, Reuters reported. The lawsuit, filed by April Curley, says Google places black employees in lower-level jobs, pays them less, and denies them opportunities to grow at the company, Reuters reported. Specifically, Curley states black people make up only 4.4% of employees and about 3% of leadership, according to Reuters. Curley also said Alphabet Inc., the parent company of Google, required black people to show identification or else face questioning at the Mountain View, California campus, Reuters reported.
