14. And I overheard a very surprise conversation between a bartender and a client in a bar yesterday

(haven't been in one since October, and before that in May, but after a dental cleaning appointment, there's a place for lunch almost next door, and I look forward to that)

Anyway, it's a white area and 90% white bar/restaurant. Bartender and client both white. I was expecting the worst, since, well, white bar culture.

The lengthy conversation was all anti-ICE and anti-Trump.

So, ya never know

By the way, neither were drinking - the client was there just to pick up a take-out food order, and the bartendress was on duty.

Just in case - from the vantage point of the killer's video, Good is very clearly turning the steering wheel to the right (as well, there are other videos / pics showing the front left tire angled to the right)
