Where is your summary?

[GOPJ]

Probably someone who was afraid the thugs would pull her out of the car and beat her up. New York’s a hellhole.

[Bonemaker]

Where is some crazed ISIS semi driver when you need him?😎

[Pilgrim's Progress]

I did not see the car jump up and down as though it were riding over speed bumps and there were no bodies laying in the street . . . so what’s the big deal. The driver apparently FAILED.

Why is this a problem? A person is driving on a public road intend for cars and is stopped by an illegal protest. If you sit and do nothing you jeopardize your car at a minimum and your life at a maximum. If you drive through the crowd, who has no business blocking the street, your the criminal.

F the legal system!

[God luvs America]

there was no “ramming” involved. The biden supporters got in front of the car with their bicycles to block the cars path and the driver was having none of it.

It was at a crosswalk, so if the light was green the pedestrians should not have been in the road.

I'm sure the police will get right on that one.

I wouldn't even bother looking up from my coffee if I were an NYC officer.

Let me guess without even looking. “Ram” means that a person drove very slowly while a crazed gang of thugs beat on their car and tried to stop them.

Jim Hoft and Gateway Pundit won’t even have to change the headline on this one to post it....

“Ramming” involves the deliberate striking of another object or person with a vehicle.

This headline sucks and does not match the video.

It looked like the crowd was blocking the street, you could hear the car honk several times for them to get out of the way, they refused to move, so the car moved forward to get out of the situation. The driver did not appear to be trying to ram people, but just wanted to get out of there, and it didn’t look like anyone was hurt.

[Spirit of Liberty]

I thought pedestrians having to dodge vehicles in the middle of NYC roads was an everyday occurance.

[Olog-hai]

It’s Tegna. They don’t permit any of their material to be posted to FR.

[Olog-hai]

What do you expect from Antifa Media. Hope it ain’t truth . . .

“It’s Tegna. They don’t permit any of their material to be posted to FR.”

"Let me guess without even looking. “Ram” means that a person drove very slowly while a crazed gang of thugs beat on their car and tried to stop them."

That's basically correct. The crowd was illegally blocking the street, and you could hear the driver of the car honk several times for them to move. They refused, so he slowly drove forward to get out of a potentially dangerous situation. It didn't look like anyone was hurt, and the driver wasn't trying to "ram" anyone.

[Olog-hai]

It can suffice to follow. The OP isn’t required to summarize or even opine.

NPR is using the same phony headline, BTW.

A car drove into Black Lives Matter protesters in Times Square on Thursday, hitting several people on foot and on bicycles.

Several demonstrators captured the chaotic scene and posted video shortly after 8 p.m. ET. […]

Minutes later, WNYC reporter Gwynne Hogan said the crowd appeared “rattled” but that “most people were able to jump out of the way.” At least one person said they were injured. …

That’s all, folks.

AND? I don't see a problem with this...you block the road, you pay the price.....play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

[MNDude]

False description. They tried to block the car. The car just kept going. It even stopped once out of caution.

[1Old Pro]

The driver apparently FAILED.

Use a bus next time.
