A deer wearing glasses and carrying a flashlight.

How do these people live with themselves?

Ravnsborg killed a man with his car, lied about it by claiming that he thought he struck a deer. The victim's eyeglasses were found inside Ravnsborg's car. He faces only misdemeanor charges and won't even resign as South Dakota's attorney general. Privileged much?

The Enablers are Guilty as well

The worst that can happen to this guy is to be forced to resign - after covering up a fatal hit and run! The rich and powerful can get away with anything in this system, while the majority of people continue to be in denial.

The cover up is always worse than the initial crime.

I know I might be as ugly as a deer, but I would have to be blind to not know the difference between a deer and man's head in my windshield. Maybe Ravnsborg was drug, high, or driving legally blind.

His actions were shameful

jobourne A deer who wore reading glasses 🙄

Was he driving a rental car? Who needs to look at anything to turn their cruise control on in their own car? And if he admits he hit the guy while he was “putting his phone down,” isn’t that admitting to a pretty serious crime?

Would be curious to see if he even called his insurance co. - which is what most people do when there is damage to their vehicle ‘from striking a deer.’ His story wreaks!!

Where do we get these assholes?

This guys story stinks from top to bottom. Anyone else would be in jail.

Deer never wear glasses !!!

Republicans back Republicans no matter what Republicans do. Lie, cheat, steal, abuse, etc. makes no difference, politician and supporters are, as they say, two peas in a pod.

HE IS A KILLER !!!!

Welcome to SD, home of the most corrupt government in the union.

realroguespace I think he might deserve a bit more than a forced resignation. I mean, I wouldn’t even get bail if I mistook a deer for a human and left them to die on the road.

It's pretty bad. It's not like the Springsteen thing at all. He drove home cause he was drunk. We all know that's what happened. Yeesh.

He should be in jail, period!

A black man in Texas was arrested for walking in the street during the snow storm. He was walking home from work with groceries. He never made it home. He spent the night in jail. Meanwhile in AmeriKKKa, a white AG in SD might lose his job for a hit and run while drunk. hmm..

“What is all the fuss about? He was a registered Democrat” - Jason Ravnsborg (Republicans are futile)

So what I'm learning here is this is LITERALLY the only thing you can do to have someone call for you to resign?!? Lol we need to have higher standards 'America'...

If he only he had told the truth. 'Accident. I was looking at my phone. My fault.' I think he would of gotten away with a slapped wrist and his political career would of survived.

OMG, DEER HAVE FIGURED OUT HOW TO USE READING GLASSES TO READ!

Just killed one man then fled the scene, he's a politician and white and rich so he deserves better! Fuck that guy for getting in his way and causing all this trouble!

Obviously intoxicated, injured someone fatally and left them to die. Typical Republican.

If he were a regular person, he would’ve been in jail immediately. Strange standards.

RESIGN!

Can’t help but wonder if he has a (D) next to his name if he would be getting this type of media attention.

I can tell a deer face and a human vlface are different unless I'm super drunk WTF 🤬

I mean, I’m pretty sure a human head coming through the windshield would kind of indicate it’s not a deer. And who doesn’t stop even if it is a deer coming through the windshield?

Oh yes 4legs and antlers looks just like a person!!!?

impeach the slime

Up the river.

Hey where's his neck?

Misdemeanors?
