The police incident report says an unprovoked but angry Hamner stalked toward her car while shouting expletives including \u201cAsian b\u2014-.\u201d He was allegedly seen \u201cpunching his fists together\u201d while shouting for the victim to get out of the car. Before escaping, she was able to take&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pammiegoh\/posts\/10223638306762782\">photos of the suspect<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Three days later, on March 19, Hamner is accused in a similar incident.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>According to the incident report, two females were driving behind Hamner when he stopped his car at random. When the victims tried to drive past him, he cut them off, opened his door, and started to yell at them, \u201cF\u2014 you, Asian!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Police say Hamner then got out of his car and started to charge at them while yelling. He threw some plastic object at their vehicle and then they drove off to escape what they thought was the threat of an imminent assault.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The victim\u2019s car was equipped with a dashboard camera. Police were able to positively identify Hamner.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The King County Prosecutor\u2019s Office reportedly said Hamner verbally accosted the women while they were in their vehicles and \u201cdemonstrated violent, anti-Asian behavior.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hamner pleaded not guilty. His trial is scheduled for June 3.<\/p>\n<p>Online, Hamner presented himself as a typical Black Lives Matter activist, Rantz reported. He posted positive messages about President Joe Biden and made disparaging remarks against former President Donald Trump. He also posted on Facebook following the Atlanta, Georgia spa shooting that everyone has \u201chad bad days but it never justifies hate crimes against [Asian Americans].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also posted a link to a YouTube video including Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris\u2019 condemnation of the shooting, with the caption: \u201cThank God for a President &amp; VP who can comfort a nation after the Atlanta shooting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rantz described Hamner\u2019s Facebook page as \u201cfull of progressive virtue signaling,\u201d noting that he repeatedly praised Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortes (D-NY) as the \u201cAngel of Congress\u201d and posted videos from progressive news sources about alleged racism against Asian-Americans, writing, \u201cWe Stand UNITED against racism &amp; white supremacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rantz reported that Hamner was \u201cactive within the BLM movement in Seattle,\u201d posting photos of himself online attending rallies and holding up signs that said \u201cThere are no good cops\u201d and \u201cBeing black is not a crime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hamner also appeared to be a fan of Seattle\u2019s short-lived Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, claiming it was peaceful despite numerous videos to support the contrary.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
