Video shows man's car surrounded and attacked by pro-Palestinian protesters in Minneapolis
Washington Examiner ^ | 23 Oct, 2023 | Heather Hunter

A man attempting to get past a blockade of thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators in Minneapolis was attacked on Sunday.

The group staged a protest in response to the war in Israel and Gaza. While they blocked the streets, a man tried to navigate his car past the crowd in his white Ford Fusion. The driver slowly edged forward to break through the crowd blocking the intersection.

An overhead drone captured video of the demonstrators chasing the driver down and attacking his vehicle as he tried to flee the area. The drone footage shows the driver attempting to drive through the crowd, and his car is repeatedly kicked and hit. He steps out to yell at the protesters as the crowd surrounds him.

Another white car in the intersection moved out of his way, and he broke free, fleeing the crowd as they hit his car with a Palestinian flag. Several people were seen attempting to block the front of his vehicle and even jumped on the car's hood.

According to the Minneapolis Police Department, witnesses saw the vehicle driving through the crowd, but no injuries were reported. It is unclear whether the road that the demonstrators had been illegally occupying had been closed or open at the time.

The crowd acts just like the ANTIFA/BLM rioters before the 2020 elections. Very orchestrated tactics and what looks like a security response on motorcycles and ATVs.

They’ll arrest the driver, no doubt.

Isn’t it wonderful how we’ve allowed the Muzzie terrorists to hold their Middle Eastern war here in the U.S.? Come on America. The Dempanic is over. Time to get your asses off the couch and get back to living life again.

Good thing we live in Florida and are protected by laws that say a riot is grounds for using lethal force if necessary including running over anyone.

Clean them all out! Muzzies don’t belong in western nations! They’re ticking time bombs waiting to go off in your face!

That reminds me, I should put studded tires on the vehicles. No snow down here but these foreigners could try to block roads.

Yes, and studded tires and 4WD may give needed traction if the road gets covered in protester fluid.

Initial observation: Target rich environment.

That stated:

Fascinating social experiment. If you watch closely, one of the idiots opens the car door, then suddenly the crowd recoils, permitting the driver to close the door and ultimately escape. Later one of the manipulators on a bullhorn warns the idiots to ‘stay off the street’ and to ‘not approach the car’.

I suspect that the driver had a weapon, otherwise they’d have pulled the poor sap from the car, and we’d have a much different story.

Most people are blissfully unaware of our government’s ‘resettlement’ program which has placed a large population of enemy personnel within our borders. Minneapolis is one such locale.

That protestor fluid is slimy and sticky like Georgia mud. Gunna need studded mud tires too!

And THIS is why you need more than 8 bullets in an AR15.

Minneapolis doesn’t matter. Minneapolis is a City State and not America

The anti-Americanism of so many Americans is stunning.
