Oklahoma Bill to Protect Drivers Who Hit Violent Protesters While Fleeing Passes House
The Epoch Times ^ | March 10, 2021 | GQ PAN

Posted on 03/10/2021 6:33:55 PM PST by Yong

A bill that could grant legal immunity for drivers who hit violent road-blocking protesters while fleeing from them has passed the House in Oklahoma.

House Bill 1674, authored by Republican state Rep. Kevin West, was passed 79-18 on Tuesday and proposes measures to crack down on violent protesters who block roads or highways to paralyze traffic—a tactic that was popularized last year during the widespread Black Lives Matter protests—some of which turned violent.

If they are blocking the street without a permit, they are not peaceful protests.

Next year I’m thinking an amendment for tax credits to those that manage to hit these “protestors”.

A sane person does not, unprotected, block the path of a moving vehicle without confidence of ability to stop it try some form of violence. Ergo anyone doing so should reasonably be considered a threat, either capable & malicious, or insane & dangerous.

The law is an utter failure unless the damage to the vehicle caused by the hit is paid for by the protester.

Do you win a prize if you turn a Marxist/criminal protestor into a hood ornament?

You notice the red states are passing more and more bills that make sense.

Or, they could make a lot of money for the state if they sold licenses for them, like for hunting deer, etc.

[[A sane person does not, unprotected, block the path of a moving vehicl]]

The domestic terrorists blm and antifa feel as though they are above the law- and can do anything they want, and noone can oppose them or resist them- Oklahoma has news for them! Move out of the way and stop attacking innocent civilians, or risk being run over

They will still get charged with a hate crime or something on the Federal level. Trust.
The Federal government has zero tolerance for people who hurt their paramilitary wing called ANTIFA and BLM. These are orgs that are well funded by someone, yet our FEDS/FBI deny they exist.
