re: Car Plows Thru Crowd Of Trump Supporters In Yorba Linda CA

Why were the assholes blocking the street? That's antifa bullshite.

Really do not care if it is a parking lot either. If I need to leave then I expect they will permit me to. That video does not give the full story. It starts as the driver is trying to accelerate out near the exit. And they have shattered the rear window. Not exactly the best example of our position on the Right.

Downvote away. Zero fricks given.

Works both ways. GTFO of traffic or grease the pavement.

A GD 8 year old knows not to play in the street.

This is no different than when it happens on the other side... why was the car there? If they were blocking a public drive then oh well, get the frick out of the way.

Them switching drivers makes me think they didn’t intend to be in that spot and the driver was scared to go through, so the other took over.

Two people were struck by a car and injured Saturday during a Yorba Linda demonstration involving members of Black Lives Matter and counter-protesters.

Another two people — Tatiana Turner, 40, of Long Beach and Jason Mancuso, 46, of Anaheim — were arrested following the afternoon protests, according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.

Turner is the person suspected of driving into demonstrators, and she stands accused of attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon, sheriff’s officials said. She was expected to be booked into Orange County Jail.

Mancuso was taken into custody on suspicion of failure to obey a dispersal order issued by authorities, officials said.

The injured people were taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, said Carrie Braun, spokeswoman for the department. Sheriff’s officials later described their wounds as major.

The incident occurred as members of Black Lives Matter demonstrated against police brutality and systemic racism. Officials said the protests also involved a group called Caravan for Justice.

Counter-protesters crossed six-lane Imperial Highway and confronted the BLM protesters, authorities said. The protesters also confronted each other in the parking lot of the Yorba Linda public library, Braun said.

About 30 minutes after the demonstrations started, sheriff’s officials said they began receiving reports of physical altercations between the groups. At least one individual pepper sprayed another protester, officials said. The crowd grew during that time to around 250 demonstrators.

Around 3 p.m., after authorities issued several orders to disperse, a white sedan went through the crowd in the parking lot of the Yorba Linda Public Library, hitting and injuring two people, according to sheriff’s officials. People chased the car as it tried to drive away, and it was eventually stopped and was surrounded by police, Braun said.

Officials said Turner, the suspected driver, is believed to be part of a group called Caravan for Justice. On Sept. 17, the Sheriff’s Department first learned of a demonstration supposedly being planned by Caravan for Justice and expected to take place in Yorba Linda at 2 p.m. Saturday. Officials said they learned of counter-protests planned shortly after.

According to sheriff’s officials, Turner was detained a short distance away from the protests.

The Register reported it was not known how fast the car was going. The back windshield had been broken out, and it had a flagpole sticking out of it. The front windshield was smashed, the Register reported.

Braun said there were 300 people total and at some point it was declared an unlawful assembly and dispersal orders were given.

Officials said the crowd dispersed and streets were reopened by about 4:30 p.m.

On Thursday night, a protester was struck by a pickup truck during a march in Hollywood and suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Los Angeles police said Friday the preliminary investigation found that the driver was attempting to maneuver through the crowd when protesters began beating the vehicle with sticks and attempted to open the door.

The driver was attempting to drive away from the situation when he struck the protester. The driver stopped several blocks away and cooperated with officers. He was released pending the outcome of the investigation.

Wow this is sad.

First you have a tragedy like the car running into the crowd of people.

Then you have the hard core flip flopping of the posters who previously said if you were dumb enough to stand in front of a moving car you get what you deserve.
