Murderous intent

So today, this happened. Daily Caller editor Katie Frates got so upset by the thought that indigenous Americans were protesting the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline, she tweeted:

I wonder how many #NativeNationsRise #NoDAPL protesters I could run over before I got arrested #getouttamyway

When she realized how bad this made her look, Frates deleted her tweet. But here’s a screenshot:

And the tweet is still viewable in Google’s cache as of this writing.

Every once in a while, a conservative lets something like this slip out, and reveals the hatred they normally try to keep hidden. She’ll probably try to say it was a “joke,” because this is the kind of “humor” that appeals to right wingers.
