They grabbed the truck driver quickly to save his life.
The marchers were maced to keep them away from a possible truck bomb.

Highway should have been closed, everyone detoured or stopped. There should have been no traffic for them to interact with.

did you check out that twitter thread?

lotta hate on there. But there was one short clip from Erie where a popo kicked a girl sitting on the ground because she had been maced.

That crap can’t happen. It gives ammo (no pun intended) to the other side.

So the cops stand around while rioters break any number of laws, but arrest a person threatened for trying to go about his business? How much more of this tyranny can people stand? But, after watching conversations about the covid tyranny, probably much more. If there is a fund to help him defend himself, I will donate.

A lot of them are reposts I have seen before.

I notice MLK III is Mr. No justice, no peace. Whatever happened to peace, love, and understanding?

In my dreams I would have a fleet of those huge airport snow plows running abreast.
Now if by chance any protesters actually read this...your days are numbered. ..
Twitter is NOT your friend...or your savior.

They say he illegally enter the interstate?????? Ever drive a road tractor pulling a 45 ft trailer. One cop car could have blocked an on ramp keeping him from driving around and entering the interstate. The cops F-ed up. Either he entered the interstate at a clear on ramp or had been driving on it for a while.

They say he was blowing his horn. He managed to stop the rig. This was at a curve. If he had locked the brakes, he could have jack-knived, rolling the trailer.

They screwed up by not having the interstate closed.

The way I read that headline is that protesters misunderstand the laws of physics and the police earn their pay

Truckers need to refuse service to these blue cities that are allowing rioting. Let them starve.

Good. It's time every driver kept on driving through. That would force the protesters off the road where they have no right to be.

It’s hard to have much sympathy for idiots who are going to walk down an interstate highway, and intentionally block traffic. Do these idiots have any common sense at all?

It is not about common sense.

It is about disrupting society and "bringing down the system".

No one should be allowed to block streets or highways.

That is not a protest, it is not free speech, it is criminal.

The last person that stopped his truck during a riot while rioters through bricks at his cab, the one in LA, was dragged out of the truck, beaten, hit with a brick and unconscious for weeks. I would think every truck driver running through a crowd of rioters has that scene emblazoned on his mind.
