That's probably why she fell off, he stopped. If he kept going and she held on, nobody would have gotten hurt or arrested.
He could be driving down some highway in Atlanta right this second with her still hanging on if he kept going and she held on better.

That is a pile of speculation. I think Echo's history of events there would indicate something totally different than him just stopping. Whether she held on or not he was operating the vehicle and it was moving so that is assault no matter how you try to twist it around.
Probably a daily event in Florida so you are just immune to this sort of thing.

this.

there's no way she could have sustained the injuries that she had by him stopping. given the injuries it looks like he ran over her shoulder/arm/ribs and that happening made her slam her face into the ground. that or he also ran over her face.

@ the Florida comment.

Crazy shit happens in any highly populated state. The whole "Florida Man" stuff is blown out of proportion.

Speaking of holding on to moving objects, remember that time when that retard jumped on Tony Stewart's racecar? That didn't pan out too well.

I know. I am poking Imp. He knows it. It is sort of a running thing. I pretty much feel the same about all the US but Florida is the traditional poster child for weird shit.

I could see him backing out, cutting the wheel at the end of the driveway to get onto the street and her flying off and the front of the car swung around and over the top of her. Drunk domestic disputes go bad all the time. A friend of mine is a cop and says domestic diputs are some of the most dangerous calls they get. People lose their freaking minds when fighting with family.

Any state that was part of the Confederacy should be avoided by all thinking people.

I don’t think so I’m safe down here. Florida is growing 300K per year so I guess a lot of non-thinking people are on the run.

If having thinking people in your state means you end up like CA, I'm happy to be one of the non-thinkers, or at least living with them.

Then again, as far as I know no one living in Georgia was actually part of the Confederacy, and rednecks can be found everywhere (unless those are thinking rednecks living elsewhere, which sounds REALLY dangerous).

Yeah, Georgia is on my shit list too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_o...ia_(U.S._state)
Since you probably won't read the link, "... a composition that was inspired by the First National Flag of the Confederacy, the Stars and Bars, rather than the Confederate Battle Flag"
In other words, Georgia adopted a subtler Confederate, racist, traitor flag. Don't wanna be too obvious, ya know.

Among 1000 other reasons.

Didn't need to read the article, I am fully aware of the origin of the flag, and didn't vote for either design when it was put up for a public vote. It should have been a clean sheet design.

Then again, just about every flag in the world has seen human suffering and atrocities committed under it, or some form of it's current state. Sometimes it's good to have a reminder of the crap we humans can do to each other so we try not to repeat it.
