Hey jackass have you read? He wasn't charged with anything yet.

As far as entering a closed freeway, it happens all the time. In Baton Rouge a few years ago when I-10 was closed for ice, I got on east bound at Siegen just as LSP closed the ramp behind me. I was the ONLY vehicle on the stretch to Highland. Was creepy and fun but not illegal at all.

Sorry. He was arrested and booked for vehicle assault charges. I thought we backed the blue?

Nor should he be. The people in the interstate should be charged with a crime though.

No doubt he'll be charged and sued. But he ain't going to jail for that.

Stop romanticizing these criminals. You’ve said it yourself - if you want change, go about it the right way. Vote and contribute to your society. Don’t block the freeway for 5 weeks and expect nothing to happen. This is why police presence is needed and to act swiftly. You let these protests linger and people die. Period.

It definitely didn't look intentional to me. Who knows in today's political climate though?

No he wasn't booked on shite. They arrested him because of saving face and who runs their cities. The police chief even said "I hope these protestors learn that we can't protect them and its not safe to do this on interstates". Do you end every sentence with I thought we backed the blue? We do back the blue, the problem is some cities don't even back their police you stupid frick.

Do you understand the concept of you keep stepping on our toes enough, that eventually you'll get a negative reaction back?

I would agree with your point before all of this shite started. But the with the way this country has been turned upside down from their shite, I am a cold heartless motherfricker when it comes to anything bad happening to them.

Make no mistake about it, this is what they're asking for. They want unrest. It's what the mayor of Seattle gave them. She allowed them to take over the city and bent over backwards for them.

They (protesters) want feathers ruffled. This is the exact reaction they're looking to get. The problem is, you're going to see more and more of it happening. Because they're used to the majority of us staying silent and going to work and arguing about it on Tigerdroppings. That's what they expect. They didn't factor in that there are some people out there who are equally not of sane mind who hold no qualms about running their asses over.

Let's not forget that these are domestic terrorists.

I agree 100% they are too pussy to do anything about it so they have to shut freeways down etc. doesn’t mean what this guy did wasn’t either intentional or negligent

Well you’re just obtuse because the article says he literally got arrested and booked for vehicle assault. Can you not read or are you just in that much or a rage?

It's not that they're too pussy about it. It's that they simply can't win in a situation, because if they do what they need to do to stop it they'll be lambasted on the news and charged with something.

I feel bad for the occupants of the car. The protesters have now scarred them for life.

Who in their right mind would block an interstate with unlit vehicles, at night, just beyond a curve, then gather behind the vehicles, and expect nothing bad will happen?

The protestors are white supremacists. They called the cops on a black man, which is attempted murder according to their own rulebook.

Because they’ve had it shut down for 19 days and the police had the interstates blocked off. I’m not advocating for what they’re doing, but y’all are just ignoring facts because of an agenda. Kinda like the left y’all hate

Progressives. You're looking at the single most retarded movement in history. The actually take pressure off of flat earthers.

Only part we disagree on. I don’t believe it takes an insane person to run these people over. As you said, step on our toes long enough, there will be backlash.

The police are not being pussies. They’re being ordered to handle the situation in this manner. Big difference. The elected officials are purposefully allowing the unrest to fester in hopes their political agenda gets carried on.
