The American response proved particularly telling. Within months of Nice, while counterterrorism experts were still analyzing implications, seven U.S. states introduced nearly identical legislation providing legal immunity to drivers who targeted pedestrians. North Dakota’s HB 1203 explicitly protected drivers “exercising reasonable care” when using vehicles as weapons. Florida’s SB 1096 went further, shifting the burden of proof to injured pedestrians.

This wasn’t mere reaction to civil unrest – it represented systematic effort to codify private vehicular force as state-sanctioned crowd control. The normalization, rooted in 1930s racist jaywalking laws, created a permissive atmosphere where boundaries between accident and attack, between self-defense and aggression, became deliberately blurred to favor vehicles.

Media outlets played a crucial role in this normalization. Major platforms including Fox News and The Daily Caller published, then quietly deleted, articles encouraging drivers to strike protesters. Social media filled with information warfare campaigns promoting vehicular violence as political action.

Tell Sirius XM to stop encouraging this seditious bullshit.

Move along, nothing to see here. Just a #UnitedStates #Senator publicly advocating for the non-defensive #assault of #protesters who are inconveniencing people. How #American!

How deranged do you have to be to deputize yourself as #DonaldTrump's personal, unpaid #hitMan? What sort of delusions do you have to be living in for this behavior to make sense? I'm sure #Trump is thrilled that some pawn was sufficiently infected by his relentless lies to take action, and commit the very #stochasticViolence he intended, but this guy will be facing the consequences alone and without Trump's assistance. Loyalty with Trump is a one-way street.

First, #proTrump media feeds its audience a steady diet of #misinformation, and violent encouragement. Then, once the audience is whipped into an #ignorance-based frenzy, the pro-Trump media organizations start distributing #weapons to them, because freedom! Watch how fast they switch to pearl-clutching indignation when someone they provided a weapon to goes out and kills someone. Watch how fast they disavow any responsibility for the inevitable.

Now this is more like it! Stochastic terrorism needs to be a bright red line. Kudos to Michael Steele for not mincing words.
