Right-wing extremists are turning cars into weapons, with reports of 50 vehicle-ramming incidents since protests against police violence erupted nationwide in late May.
At least 18 are categorized as deliberate attacks; another two dozen are unclear as to motivation or are still under investigation, according to a count released Friday by Ari Weil, a terrorism researcher at the University of Chicago's Chicago Project on Security and Threats. Weil has tracked vehicle-ramming attacks, or VRAs, since protests began.

I have used that tactic to good effect a quarter century ago when wife and I got off the interstate at night on the wrong exit in Jacksonville Fl.
I don’t think that is the answer.
If you display a weapon, be prepared to use it!
Better to run them over if you feel that your life is threatened!
Partisan Media Shills update.
Don’t disagree but it will need legislation to “pull the plug”. Not likely to happen anytime soon.
Drivers; increasingly frustrated by lack of police to make streets useable for traffic; turn jay-walkers into speed bumps.
NPR issues correction for earlier ‘right-wing extremists’ photo, replaces it with a photo that is 3 years old
I'll bet that someone will now ask you: "Why?"

Here is my message to the BLM/antifa/George Soros thugs:

TAKE IT TO THE BANK!

More information warfare by leftist media. Leftist media like npr are your enemy, folks. They will always attack you and I and do everything to hurt their political enemies.I

Nobody wants to be the next Reginald Denny. We’ve all see videos of people getting pulled from their car and beaten or worse.
Stop blocking roads with yourself.
Don’t beat on cars that have stopped.
Engine revving is a warning sign.
Vehicles weigh anywhere from 2,500lbs on up. You will lose. Don’t be stupid.
From Zero Hedge, but related.
Because I lived in another state with such freedoms and the Demonrat governess destroyed the state in the last recession leaving me unemployed with no chance of finding employment in said state.
An east coast state had a company that liked my skill set and paid my way to move there. Feeding my family overrode other considerations.
I still work with that company and have gotten involved in a ministry to families where I have strong influence in several states. This is where God has put me so this is where I am.
So glad that you have police who respond quickly!
Nope and they won’t because they are afraid of suburban women and their love of touchy-feely artsy stuff. Remember what happened when they talked about no funding for PBS? They said mean Republicans want to take Big Bird away from the kiddies.
