Um, the "blocking his escape" did not happen after his car was struck by a flag.
There illegal presence in the middle of the street was blocking his escape you stupid ****.
The car was going fast enough when it was struck by the flag there is almost no chance he could have stopped before hitting the crowd.
Show me your physics degree or Stfu.
If he was already going to be hitting the crowd, trying to say it was only because of his fear for his life after his car was struck by a flag doesn't hold water.
It wasn't a flag it was a club with a flag on it which is a well documented tactic of Antifa so save your minimization propaganda you laughable ****.
Chanting in the street does not make a "violent mob." Nor does it grant anyone license to hit those people with their car.
Violating the right to freedom of movement is an act of violence.
I understand that the crowd was blocking his escape, assuming escape was his intent. However, that blocking did not start after or at the same time as the car was struck by the flagpole. They were blocking his escape from the moment his car is first recorded; the crowd was filling the road when he got there. If you pay some attention to what I actually said, I said that the blocking did not happen AFTER his car was struck by a flag. His escape was always blocked.
I'm sorry, do you have a physics degree? Are you going to explain the formulae you used and the measurements you took to show that the car could have stopped before hitting the crowd at the moment it was struck by a flagpole? I am obviously giving my opinion on the events based on the speed the car appeared to be moving at and the distance between the car and the crowd as seen in still photos from when the flagpole hits the car. Besides, I see no reason to be quiet on your command.
It was a club.....so was it a stout stick, heavier on one end? And even if it were, as I originally thought, a baseball bat, that doesn't matter in the context of the point I was making. A club, a bat, a foam pool float, whatever the guy used to hit the car, my point was that at the time the car is struck, it is already going to be hitting the crowd IMO.
Calling people standing in a road an "act of violence" is ridiculous. If a road crew puts up barricades, preventing traffic from moving, is that an "act of violence?" If someone's car breaks down in the road, are they committing an "act of violence" until they are able to push it to the breakdown lane? Your statement actually makes you sound remarkably like some Antifa members I've read statements from, who consider racist or hateful speech to be an "act of violence," and therefore they feel justified in responding with physical violence.
Would you like to simply address my points, or will you once again toss out insults intended to disparage my intelligence while you misunderstand my post?
