And I hesitate to even paste links to that site. . . But this one reeled me in like I'm sure it was intended to do!

so, maybe since it was a shared sentiment - and seemingly one shared by some of us also - it allows another common saying; "Brilliant minds think alike!"

No tears but certainly no joy. Everything thing about that woman suggests she had an untreated mental illness. It’s sad that it’s getting harder and harder to separate the MAGA crowd from the medically mentally ill, but I think this woman was an example of what happens when a mentally it’s person feeds from the MAGA Fox trough.

I'm not sure. . . Probably a drug issue linked with some kind of psychiatric problem? What a wasted life, and I'm not saying that to be a smart ass. . . She was somebody's daughter or sister or mother or possibly spouse. Who knows what brought her to that level of hatred in her life. I cannot even imagine.

If she was fighting Orcs and Evil Unicorns things might have turned out differently.

She needed help, a long time ago. I can only imagine the life she lived that brought her to that place, in that state of mind. I'm sure she had been called much worse than a 'vile' human being, before stepping in front of that firetruck. It's only life.
