A liberal lawyer from Colorado is being charged with attempted murder and assault after he shot a driver in the head while the motorist tried to creep through a line of protesters blocking the road.
A nearby security camera captured the incident on tape.

Obtained by KRDO NewsChannel 13, video shows about a dozen protesters swarm the middle of the street before a truck approaches very slowly and attempts to make its way through the small group.
Despite driving extremely slow, not hitting anyone or even putting any of the protesters in danger, attorney James Marshall, 27, pulled out a handgun and shot the driver in the head.
The driver, Danny Pruitt, was found alert and sitting in his truck a half-mile down the road.
Pruitt is currently on life support in Colorado Springs hospital.
Marshall was arrested and charged with multiple crimes, but is now free after paying a $60,000 bond.
While protesters claimed Pruitt “plowed through the crowd,” video shows otherwise.
“We’ve heard the same thing,” Alamos Police Capt. Joey Spangler said of the rumors. “But again, it’s an ongoing investigation. I can say we have no evidence to show that he was driving into or through the protestors.”

Really like the car modification that some folks in South Africa have. As a “car jacking” deterrent, you can send out substantial flames from the underside of the car. Would really make a crowd jump back.
Good thing there was a security camera since the protestors have zero integrity.
As much as I hate to say it, it appears states need to pass new laws making deliberate, unpermitted blocking of traffic on a street for any non-immediate-emergency reason a felony.
I have always loved that South African flame thrower car modification. May be an option whose time has come in this country. ANTIFA goons blocking your way, pounding on your car and threatening you? Just push a button and leave a trail of crispy critters in your wake. Eliminates the immediate threat, and provides an important lesson for would-be thugs.
I many cases the driver has seconds to react.
Do I let my vehicle be destroyed and be dragged out and killed or do I drive through them?
The truck just ‘inched’ through the intersection.
Riots now to protest all lawyers!
To me, that’s a “ask forgiveness later” situation.
Yasssss
Even more interesting is that it is legal!
What other choice do they have?
What a fricking joke.
He can be chief of the new police
I was in fear for my life!
The freaks are moving to small town America.
They’ve been doing that for years.
