"Ever been stuck in a car and in a riot?"

Yep, in Chicago in the 60's.....9 PM coming back from sight-seeing and dinner in Old Town...heading back to the suburbs on main arterial Madison Street..... four in our family in car.

Won't go into detail except to say the rioters were waiting for whities traveling through on this wide, brightly lit street.....they were chasing cars coming through......brick thrown through closed back seat window hit my teen-age cousin in her head.

We put the pedal to the metal...and if any rioters had been in front of our vehicle, too bad....we saw the flashing lights of a cluster of cop cars a quarter-mile ahead and took off big time to reach them. Two squad cars escorted us to nearby Cook County hospital where cousin MK was treated and released. The halls of the hospital were lined with gurneys holding injured victims.

Terrifying experience.

Went thru something similar at the Chicago Trump Rally...

Our car was surrounded by 50-100 BLM anti-Trump “protesters!”

Never seen such hate in eyes. However, they were docile compared to the recent Antifa riots!

I am in second car—behind the silver one...Definitely in wrong place at wrong time!

Luckily police showed up just as the thugs were surrounding our car.

It was terrifying too!

Reminds me of the Bonfires of the Vanities novel .

Stupid kid in the wrong place at the wrong time and freaks out because the crazies with the baseball bats are surrounding him and panics in his new car.

These morons screaming domestic terrorism like Cruz .

JUST A STUPID KID IN A RACE RIOT FEARING FOR HIS LIFE.
