If we as regular citizens can't do anything then, once again, we're at the mercy of the criminals doing this stuff. I would think that maybe if a few of those people get run over it might persuade them in the future to stay on the sidewalk. I get it. My guess is that it won't matter once the people driving the cars into others end up in court. They will be charged, found guilty, and go to jail. Ron DeSantis isn't gonna prevent that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think mowing people down with a vehicle may be a bit harsh, though. I'm thinking only if you are surrounded in your car by idiots. Got to get out of there.

That's sure to be good for the cause. Let's go after the animals. Also, the white couple that went off on an AA woman with a child in her car, asked the peaceful white people to move so she could go to work. That was another of my favorite videos. My favorite videos are the ones where the protestors stop the looters, restores faith in humanity. Much better than animal abuse videos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nobody 2,641 Posted June 12 2 hours ago, squistion said: Meanwhile in Florida: DeSantis: Drivers Can Hit Protesters if Threatened Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has clarified that drivers in Florida are legally allowed to flee for their safety if they are surrounded by a mob while driving. This policy includes the right to drive off even if it means accidentally hitting someone blocking their path, emphasizing self-defense in situations where a driver feels threatened. This statement has sparked a debate on the balance between public safety and the right to protest. Wait. Didn't you say protestors shouldn't block traffic? If so, wouldn't that fall outside the realm of peaceful protesting you sanction? And this is a good example how people know you do condone violence despite your meager objections to the contrary. Your concern for people breaking the law in the name of the cause over all else is telling. Like come on. Of course people being blocked in and fearing for their safety should be able to drive off whether the people protesting are in the way or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Artest 1,306 Posted June 12 Anyone smell TACOs? Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace. In many cases the Criminals allowed into our Country by the VERY Stupid Biden Open Borders Policy are applying for those jobs. This is not good. We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA. Changes are coming! Great news for everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, but that doesn't give anyone the right to intentionally run them down without any legal consequences just because they don't want to miss their 7PM dinner reservation.

Ron_Artest 1,306 Posted June 12 Padilla released a statement saying he is no longer detained, was not arrested, was just forcibly removed. So he didn't break any laws, they just didn't want him there so they gooned him out, threw him to the ground, handcuffed him, and then let him go. Would make more sense if he actually was arrested.
