BLM protest in Manhattan: “protesters surrounded the driver’s car, while tapping and pounding on it. Panicked, the woman apparently drove forward to get away, striking the protesters.” So why did they arrest the driver, instead of the people who were pounding on her car?

Reporting on a Black Lives Matter protest from earlier today that took place in Manhattan, NBC News reported:

“According to two law enforcement sources, protesters surrounded the driver’s car, while tapping and pounding on it. Panicked, the woman apparently drove forward to get away, striking the protesters in the process, police said.”

The protestors attacked the driver.

Then the driver defended herself.

So why did the police arrest the driver, instead of the people who attacked her?

Was the driver White? If so, there’s your answer.

Because the driver would not riot, charge brutality, and/or sue the city for bazillions of dollars (and get it). That’s why.

Because the politicians in New Yawk and the high ranking morons in the NYPD are left-wing, woke a**holes, that’s why.

Remember what was the right thing to do is now the wrong thing to do.

A friend of mine asked a policeman what they should if their car was surrounded by people like that. He said to begin moving slowly and then step on the gas.

The video in the report said that there were no arrests yet.

Sorry, but you capitalized the “W” in “White”. I’m afraid I’m going to have to dock you three credits for that. Don’t worry though, you can recover those points with community service.

It's like Al Gore said way back when. Everything that is down is up and that which is up is down.

Makes sense to me.

Tapping on the car? Yeah, right. More like beating on the car. Woman feared for her life.

you need a followup to him

are you advising that in order to save the driver, or so that you can then arrest the driver?

Because the cops are cowardly PIGS. Remember this when they come for your guns. You’ll scream “b-b-b-b-b-but...Back the blue! Back the blue!” But they will stop being cowards when it comes to YOU.

Thanks! I thought I mis-read it. The source article says the driver was not arrested but a BLM protestor was.

That answers the race question. Had she been a sister, she’d have been given free passage.
