Hetzer optional.
I note they didn't clear the road, and note with some sadness that no one else tried to push through...

Heh. You’re gonna have to try a lil harder than that.
Rommel’s Asparagus is more effective against attacking vehicles.
HA HA
This is horrible. Terrible. Unacceptable.
I hope his car wasn’t scratched.
I wouldn’t exactly call that “speeding”, though I will agree that protesters were run over. This will happen more often as a result of the antifa actions of late. People don’t want to get treated the way Reginald Denny did.
I have no sympathy, none, zip, nada for the as*holes who are stupid enough to plant themselves in the middle of a highway.
Should be laws allowing the driver to collect damages to the car.
I hate protesters. No one’s life is more important than my need to get where I’m going; I don’t even care if I agree with the cause, if you’re blocking traffic (or otherwise impeding law abiding people) you should get the Rachel Corrie treatment.
I hope the guys car is ok
Where’s a good lone-wolf, self-radicalized individual who’s having trouble coping with cultural differences and doesn’t represent a peaceful religion when you need one?
I would like to see a law which awards $100 to any citizen who runs over a crowd IF the crowd swarms the car.
1) It would discourage crowds from swarming cars.
2) It would block a court decision against the driver because the driver’s actions were specifically cited and rewarded by legislation.
The problem there was that the other cars didn’t follow the first car through after s/he cleared the way.
The drumming never stops.
I was just talking about this earlier. If I am on my way to a hospital, airport, or work, and people block the road...it is going to make me pretty angry.
Blocking the way is going to make me angry. Surrounding my vehicle is going to make me fearful for my personal safety.
When someone is angry and fearful for their safety, they can become unpredictable, especially if they feel trapped by being surrounded.
I have no sympathy. None. These people deserve fully to be run down if they are blocking a public way and surrounding a car.
Desperate? How about pissed off?
The only thing you need to remember is the name Reginald Denny.
Ferguson? One can only hope...
Hetzer optional.
I’m surprised that no one noted that the “protestors” were building fires in the middle of the roadway. Where was law enforcement???
When a crowd surrounds your vehicle your life is in danger. Your only option is to leave the area. If someone is in front of your car and is a member of the group trying to attack you, that person is an unintended consequence of your escape.
If someone in the crowd has bashed in a window, that’s a sign of things to come, and you’d better get out of there.
Should have been driving a semi and handing out Darwin Awards?
As soon as a driver fears for their life, are they justified in driving through the crowd who refuses to move?
bfl
Agreed. It was ghastly when the crowd swarmed the vehicle, presenting a grave danger to an innocent person. I was relieved when the driver, experiencing a fully-justified and rational fear of death or serious bodily harm, used the minimum force necessary to stop the immediate threat to his life or safety.
