Good luck getting those charges to stick, Jeff.

I don't know all the facts of this incident, but if I were on the jury I'd have a hard time finding the defendant guilty of even a vehicular homicide or involuntary manslaughter charge in a case where he runs over a bunch of people blocking a freaking street.

Those people were also hitting his car with ball bats and rocks. Now who is being the terrorists?

It's claimed that there's a video of rocks being thrown at this guy's car.If that's true one must ask “who were the terrorists?”

Nope on that one—you can’t with impunity run over people in the street, even though they are, by definition, in the street.

Watch this video and tell us he didn’t choose to drive into the crowd.

Oh, they'll stick. At least some of them. Enough to put this guy behind bars for a very long time.

Even if he just panicked, or thought he was defending himself, he f-ck-d up big time. Add to that the fact that he was a "White Supremacy" or Nazi sympathizer, and his ass is grass—although I'm unsure how much of that will make it into the courtroom.

I don't know all the facts of this incident, but if I were on the jury...

...then it would be your job to determine those as yet unknown facts; thus, making pronouncements about what you would or wouldn't do as a juror "not knowing the facts" is nonsensical.

What you would or wouldn't do as a juror would hopefully depend on the very facts you established during the course of doing your civil duty.

It should be as simple as pursuing individuals who did damage to other people and to property, without regard to the ideology of those individuals, since ideology should not be criminalized.

Especially knowing the “victim” was ANTIFA.
