Wild video shows the moment an exasperated driver fed up with Monday’s anti-Israel protest in Manhattan jumps out of his car to physically confront the demonstrators blocking his path.
“You’re disrupting traffic, idiots! You can’t do that, that’s against the law!,” the agitated driver shouts at the protesters before getting out from behind the wheel of his maroon Honda SUV.
>snip<
“I’m about to start throwing fists. .... I’m not going to run them over,” the man says as he shoves several of the protesters blocking his vehicle’s path.
“Get away from my car, I have a daughter in Brooklyn!” the man, clad in a Brooklyn Nets sweatshirt, screams as he points across the East River.
>snip<
The incident came as hundreds of demonstrators blocked traffic on the Manhattan, Williamsburg and Brooklyn bridges and Holland Tunnel to demand a cease-fire in Israel’s 3-month-old war on Hamas in Gaza.

we need to cheer these Democrat KKK Nazi’s on! nothing annoys someone enough to vote that usually doesn’t than idiots standing in the road!
There should be a law: you have a right to stand or sit in the road to express your grievances, I have a right to run you over with my vehicle.
for some reason I think Florida has a law like that ...
What absolutely amazes me is that folks like Susan Sarandon cares about our tax money being spent on a war in Israel/Gaza, but they have been quiet about Ukraine where we spend many times more.
Israel actually is a republic and democracy! Ukraine? Hardly.
With Israel we have three security agreements and a SOFA. With Ukraine, nothing.
The attack on Israel actually was “unprovoked.” On the other hand, arming Ukraine for 7 years, sending military trainers there, giving them intel, offering them NATO membership October 2021 and then giving the Russians the middle finger when they say they don’t want our tanks on their border, is hardly “unprovoked.”
Are we really nationally debating helping Israel while everyone wears a Ukraine lapel pin?
Sounds great to me 🙂
this video is fantastic. most of the twitter comments want to give him a medal. of course the Manhattan DA will probably try to prosecute him.
I applaud his initiative but getting out of the car isn’t the wisest thing to do. Those situations can turn bad very quickly.
Paiute Tribal Police did NOT tolerate protesters who blocked traffic to Burning Man in N Nevada.
The protesters let him through. The cars behind him should have followed instead of sitting there like whipped pussies.
There’s a reason dirtbags don’t pull this cr@p in FL.
It absolutely is unprovoked. Funny how none of you useful idiots for the Russian empire ever consider Russian buildups a provocation, even though it is Russia and not NATO that actually has the historical record of invading and annexing the territories of its neighbors.
If I buy a shotgun, it isn’t a “provocation” that would justify my neighbor to break into, enter, and occupy my house.
The Russian buildup didn’t start until AFTER October 2021 (when we offered NATO member ship to Ukraine) along the border, then they started live fire training exercises, and finally invaded 4 months later.

Before you begin to talk big and call folk’s names, at least get you basic facts straight.
Otherwise, you just look like a fool with a very strong opinion.
This caused a war: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukrainian-president-zelenskiy-holding-talks-with-biden-adviser-says-2021-12-09/
That was our decision, and it was us “lying” about not expanding NATO Eastward. It was us being hypocrites, because we wouldn’t allow a major foreign power building bases along our border. It was us gambling with the lives of 41 million people because it made political and economic sense.
But as usual, those with no argument resort to name calling and other fallacies to pretend at least in their own mind like they have an argument.
This war is starting to end and Ukraine is a basket case economically/politically/demographically. This war is an abject failure, not achieving our political goal of NATO membership for Ukraine and failing to accomplish our military objectives of stopping the Russians from seizing the Eastern ethnic Russian area in Ukraine. We blew nearly 300,000,000,000 USD all inclusive. You and all the other folks out there which essentially advocated for this should ask yourself, “was it worth it?”
The Russian empire?
Is that the one where we invade Iraq, aligned with Russia, under false pretences in 2003?
Is that the one where we attack Libya in Africa, with an Atlantic defense organization NATO in what truly was “unprovoked?” BTW, do you realize the jets of every major US oil firm were in Libya before Gaddafi’s body even cooled off?
Is this the empire where we try to overthrow the government in Venezuela, and embarrassingly get caught but no one talks about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Gideon_(2020)
Is this the empire where we once again pull the WMD argument from our @ss in 2014 and invade a formal Russian ally in Syria and are no kidding guarding oil fields today?

What nation has its forces in the most nations around the world? https://ubique.americangeo.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/INTERACTIVE-US-military-presence-around-the-world.png
What nation spends more on war than anyone else?
What nation has attacked or invaded more nations than any else since 1991?
What nation has more troops deployed outside it’s border than anyone else?
The “Russian empire,” sounds nice. Maybe you should make a movie like Red Dawn where they invade us again, while in reality we want to station missile defense and nukes in Ukraine once they are in NATO, within 6 minutes time of flight from Moscow, after we left the ballistic missile treaty, lied about NATO East expansion, violate Minsk, and invade Russia’s allies or those nations aligned with them for the last 20 years... Yup, Russia is the one acting more and more belligerent on the the world stage. Obvious to everyone, just ask the Mexicans: https://youtu.be/UD4kFxyHALo?si=rcKdM_4-kHf_9VTM. (That’s us talking about INVADING Mexico, then backing off that idea and simply proposing missile strikes).
Some Russian propaganda there. Putin intends to conquer Ukraine. As simple as that.
No worries,
When this war ends, Western Ukraine will still be under our control. Russia doesn’t intend to take the nationalist areas.
Of course the parts we control, as in choose their leaders, that’s massively indebted to us... That will stay “sovereign and democratic.”. Hahaha
The Eastern parts where there are ethnic Russians, which do not exist since we don’t talk about that, which didn’t live with a boot on their neck by the benevolent nationalists which our own Congress wanted to classify as terrorists until advised not to by our state department and CIA, will not shed a tear being under Russian control.
Propaganda = derogatory information for which someone has no counter-argument. Akin to name-calling, only the target is the argument not the person. Non-argument.
Our lordship is human rights, sovereignty and democracy. With Russian lordship it’s evil Putin empire Soviet expansionism. How about this, Russia and the US get out of Ukraine. Of course that’ll never happen, but that would be the right thing to do it we didn’t just have this pretend morality to justify doing what is always economic and politically motivated.
