Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell released a statement about the incident, calling it an “incredibly tragic event.”
The US, maybe everywhere else, does this routine where something bad happens, people say it’s tragic, and stops. No root cause analysis. No steps to prevent it from happening again. Just thoughts and prayers and that’s it. It’s infuriating.
There are many complex problems that are going to be uncomfortable to solve. We are all going to suffer before it gets better. But we should demand better. We should demand that the rich help or get out of the way.
I’m surprised the headline wasn’t “1 dead, 3 injured by vehicle that jumped red light” but you know the only reason the driver was listed was because of his age
