"... Who knows what could have happened to you? On that note, I take you back 22 ½ years … wow it’s really been that long … to the L.A. Rodney King riots. Let me refresh you with this clip of the white truck driver, Reginald Denny, who somewhere that was not safe for white people to be. ..."

"... who happens to be something of an expert in self-defense. Here’s what he wrote in regard to what happened in Minneapolis: He wrote: 'one word of advice … if they block your car and threaten your family and life … push gas firmly … this is self-defense … as given an opportunity … ie (you stopping), they will kill you!' That is exactly what the driver in Minnesota seems to do. ..."

That was my thought, too. Why not just back up and then make a U-turn? That was the easy way out of that mess.

There are also people in yellow safety vests attempting some kind of traffic control - can’t tell if they are police officers or this is an organized crowd with its own traffic marshals. Some yellow vests look they are standing back or even applauding rather than taking action.

The driver knocked down a yellow vest the second time he started up. If that was a police officer, he’s in deeper trouble.

Why are the protestors being allowed to take over the streets? Why are there no arrests being made, so as to clear the way for drivers? It seems the protestors have the right of way, and the drivers are at risk. Why not clear the streets, so drivers don’t have to fear for their lives & their family’s wellbeing?

Commies need to be taught a lesson. The driver is a true Patriot for schooling them and he was perfectly justified. His only fault was going too slow. I would have slammed on the accelerator and really gunned it to take out a lot of those commies.

The driver has been charged and is being held on $150,000 bail. So everyone who has been critical of her can take a deep breath. [The story claims it was a vendetta. I have no idea. I just don’t think the streets should be ceded to the protestors, period.]

After that attack on Reginald Denny, “Football” Williams was convicted and sentenced to 10 years but got out after five for “good behavior”—and then committed a murder. He now sits in the state pen down in Calipatria.

I don't see anything in your link that would put that event at the demonstration at the intersection.

Witnesses tell police Uzong and Horton had been fighting before the incident. Witnesses say Uzong drove through a parking lot and swerved to intentionally hit Horton.

Looks like a different incident to me. Wasn't a parking lot, no swerve visible, and you couldn't pick out a particular target in that crowd if you were aiming for her.

Sorry, but that clip clearly shows the driver trying to force his way through the crowd that was already there not a crowd that just surrounded and attacked his car...

Never heard of this adam guy, but he’s clearly just as bad as the dregs setting fires.

Patrick Carr, Samuel Grey, James Caldwell, Christopher Monk, Samuel Maverick. They had it coming to them.

They should be arrested, fined, and jailed for reckless endangerment of pedestrians.

Pedestrians?

Opinion's are like a "gluteus maximus," every body has one, and some (opinion's) stink worst than others.

Congratulations, you have removed any & all doubt to how much stink you prefer.

Do have a good day.

Fortunately, the driver pulled over to talk to the cops afterward and they let him go. The protestors have no right to block the street. He edged forward, they didn't move out, then they jumped on the hood and started beating his vehicle, then he went into plow mode. No wrongdoing whatsoever. If everyone had the balls to just push through these illegal street protests then this shite would stop!

Screw the hippies, automobiles beat flesh every time!

False equivalence. They weren’t commie thugs and union goons but Patriots on the side of God and liberty. How dare you slander the name of good men.

Easy to see they should have turned left.. From the roof of a 10 story building. Once the mistake was made, does the poor driver have to go ahead and get beaten to death to atone for it?
