Fanatical Republican Extremist of the Day: Matt Fariss [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2023-10-03 Our reason for profiling Fariss, however, is his two hit and run incidents. The first time, in 2016, which only resulted in damage to a mailbox and a stretch of fence, but in 2023, using his vehicle as a weapon took an even darker turn. Fariss was driving with a female friend this time, and got a flat tire. After calling his son, who said he would not be by with a tire jack anytime soon, the woman opted to go ahead and walk to the home of a family member since it would be a while. At some point, the tire got fixed, and Fariss went driving along her walking route, finding her and starting to scream at her to get in the vehicle. She wasn’t having it, since he seemed irrationally angry… and she was right, given he then sped up and hit her with his SUV in impotent rage.Luckily, a passerby so this taking place and called out in alarm, and the cowardly Fariss sped away from his second hit and run incident in seven years. He avoided prison time (again, sounds about white), and now Matt Fariss is now trying to win re-election in District 51 of the Virginia House of Delgates as an Independent candidate in 2023, because he missed the filing deadline to do so as a Republican. We would describe his chances as “slim” of pulling this off, and would like to wish him our finest “GOOD RIDDANCE” salutes at this time, and hope that he gets some counseling for his anger issues.
