Stupid question I know but


Isn’t it illegal to assemble on an interstate and block traffic?




Yes. But they are peaceful.

How many points did he score?


You get 500 per rioter and an extra 250 if it's Antifa. So by my count he scored 0.

Blocking someone’s right of travel isn’t peaceful

Frankly, this just shows further incompetence by the MPD and State Troopers.

Thousands of people out on the interstate and yet a semi somehow finds it's way out there? From the video one can see there were zero police behind the truck attempting to stop it.

It's obvious he didn't have the intent to injure anyone because if he did he could have easily taken out numerous people

No shite. If a guy is trying to take out a crowd he doesn't nail the brakes and turn away from them.

texashorn wants 200 charges of attempted vehicular homicide.

The truck driver has been arrested.

So are we all "frick the police" or "frick the driver?"




frick the police if they arrested him. They may have hauled him out for his own safety.

If he was able to get out there on the interstate obviously the police did not close it well.

I've seen Steve Harrigan cover Iraq 1 & 2, Benghazi, and Ferguson, Katrina, name it.

Dude looks more worried for his safety now than in any of those.

Which appears to be what he was doing, getting the hell out of Dodge, but then he slowed to a crawl and veered to the left to keep from running over someone. And boom, his worst fears came to fruition as the crowd charged. He's sitting on a small nuke explosion with that load of fuel.

Dang it. I missed one. I try to proofread before I hit send. Some times I miss them.

I promise to do better in the future...

I used to be a spelling nazi, too!

Interesting how you shifted from the road is open and nothing will happen to the driver, to “texashorn wants 200 separate charges of vehicular homicide” after the driver was arrested.

*Attempted

Hooray!!!

Is the new motto "Hand's Up! Please Brake!"

Mine would be "Get the cuck out the road, bitch!!"

My tax dollars paid for that road, and get the frick out of it.

You seem mad at me that the driver was arrested.

Set up a gofundme for his defense, or something.
