Anarchists' widespread use of roadblocks to attack motorists requires citizens, and especially potential jurors, to understand the full implications of these incidents. This is especially true given the propensity of some district attorneys and prosecutors to, as I see it, virtue-signal by filing charges against the motorists rather than the potential carjackers and highway robbers. A "hasty roadblock" as deployed frequently by anarchists can often be construed as prima facie evidence of violent intent, and, as motorists cannot read the anarchists' minds, they must act on the situation as they find it.
Another example of this principle is "suicide by cop" that involves pointing unloaded guns (see page 185) at police officers. The shootings are nonetheless justified because the only thing that counts is what the cop knows when he has to decide whether to shoot, and he knows only that he is looking down the muzzle of a firearm. There are rare exceptions in which the responding officer has reason to believe that a subject is suicidal and does not have a loaded weapon, but these are exceptions and not the rule. This is something people need to understand before they are called for jury duty, because it is unlikely that a virtue-signaling prosecutor will allow them to learn about it once they are selected. A dishonest prosecutor will try to second-guess the defendant by bringing in evidence that was discovered after the fact — e.g., the gun wasn't loaded or the rioters intended only to obstruct traffic without harming anybody. "Reasonable" depends on what you know at the time, not what you or anybody else discovers afterward.

Yes
The “gas” is the one on the right!
Turn the roadblocks into speedbumps. Win/win
“Impromptu” roadblocks are illegal and dangerous roadblocks.
The choice as I see it.....
1) Get trapped in the “Kill Box”...
2) Plow my way though the “Kill Box”...
My choice is already made
Yes. And if you can, back up and do it again.
They should run them over even if they don’t feel threatened. Running over anarchists is the highest form of virtue signaling, the good kind.
An innocent person who is driving and is surrounded by a pack of feral savages has the absolute right to escape the danger. Getting away from the crowd is essential. The driver has the right to drive away, to save his life, to get away from the individuals who have shown their intention is to assault the driver.
In today’s world, the corrupt democrat (but I repeat myself) prosecutor will try to throw the innocent White driver in jail for getting out of a danger zone, and will deliberately and intentionally NOT prosecute the feral savages who tried to kill him. That is the reality today.
We need a new era of self-defense laws. I favor very broad latitude and if I were on a jury, the only real question in my mind would be “Did the guy deserve it?” In a lot of cases, the guy definitely deserved it.
Turn around and go another way if possible but if trapped and in fear of you or your passengers lives, whatever it takes to get away....
My next post will be a segment on the best ways to remove and clean your vehicle of ANTIFA bodies and body parts..... best cleaners to use, using a buffer, spray wax or can wax....
Anarchist and persons with the mindless mob mentality of "no one can pick me out of this huge crowd so I can do whatever I want" need to be run down for blocking the streets.
Just a few days of good men doing this will solve this road blocking issue.
Mama always said, don't play in the road.
Yes!
Then back up over them for good measure.
Let me reply this way...
There was a specific reason I elected to drive the 2500 4x4 truck from south Florida, through Atlanta and Louisville, to Chicago and back last week rather that the SUV and carried a hicap 45 with two extra mags on my side.
...it wasn’t for the great fuel efficiency
Why is this even a question. We’ve all seen what those people do, just keep moving and if you hit someone maybe the dummies will figure out that crowding a car isn’t such a good idea.
...ps...carrying all the 230 jhp lead didn’t help fuel mileage =o)
