You’re probably a pampered liberal and have never been in a mob situation. I have, several times. The perps don’t care if they’re watched or recorded. I’ve been jumped by black groups, and was lucky to survive (one time saved by good blacks, another time by good whites). I’ve seen a white couple get a heavy garbage can thrown on top of them injuring them. A friend of mine was yanked out of his car and beaten.

You’re sadly deluded and will probably die in your autonomous car while I will live a long life.

Okay, you win the argument automatically.

You're doing exactly the same thing that liberals do when they can't control the argument or are losing the argument, and then come up with their ultimate argument tactic, such as calling the opposition racist of ignorant or just plain dumb.

YOu don't know me. I'm probably a lot more conservative that you. But, you strike me as either a liberal type yourself, or as somebody not intelligent enough to understand a different argument that doesn't jive with your simple-minded approach.

So, according to you, I have to have been in certain precarious situations in order to understand them. Heck, I've never been shot to pieces in order to understand that I was having a bad day. I haven't have my vehicle overturned in order to understand that I might be in danger. I haven't had my head sliced off in order to know that ISIS and Al-Qaeda are not my friends.

I dig go to war, and I survived. I lived in the slums, and I survived. I lived among blacks and Hispanics in their neighborhoods and in their homes, and I survived. I knew how far I could go before I might be in danger. I'm Hispanic myself (born in Puerto Rico, actually), and I know first-hand what minorities go through in their daily lives. Having lived the kind of life that I've had, is what attracted me towards conservative ideals.

The situation that you describe is not something that everybody encounters often, and it happens seldom, but I do know that when it happens to you, it's one time too many.
Even so, autonomous vehicles have nothing to do with how people will treat you or attack you. That a vehicle is catching all the action, is a good thing. And, actually, with the autonomous vehicle, it's very likely that a person would not even be in a vehicle being attacked, since, it's just a ride that delivers a person and just goes off to serve another rider.

In any case, using a occurring type of event to try to derail usage of autonomous vehicles, is actually repressive.
