“Please explain what reasonable and responsible actions the driver took that makes it okay to hit pedestrians standing on a freeway closed off by the police.”
_____________________________________

Your premise is flawed. You believe I give the driver the okay to do what he did.

I’d like to say I am stunned you failed to assess my post correctly. You are simply angry because I place the harmful consequences of the protestor’s actions upon themselves.

I literally owe you no answer that will please you, for you wish to remove any and/or resulting harm from the women who were in the roadway/highway.

You have my answer. Simply because it doesn’t make you happy does not in anyway make it less of an answer.

Sometimes people can have differing viewpoints. This is one of those times. I am not faulting you for you having your viewpoint; I simply do not share that viewpoint.

You would be waiting for a very long time for my removing any responsibility from themselves of their part of the equation.

I’m not into babyism and cannot, nay, will not, change from my viewpoint simply to appease someone else. I would consider that an act of cowardice.

No, here's your quote to which I responded. In your very first sentence you declared that you cannot declare that the driver is at fault.

I cannot in good mind declare the young man at fault.

It’s a case of suicide by vehicle. She was one of several who placed themselves on a highway/roadway. It doesn’t matter, the foolishness and cowardice of the local/city/county/state governship.

She placed herself on that path, literally.

I grieve, for the young man. And that’s without knowing of his previous or current lifestyle.

It’s of no matter what he’s done: She set the suicide in motion, herself.

He’s paying for it.

You declared that what he did doesn't matter.

It sounds to me like you're perfectly okay with what the driver did.
