We mentioned in a post the other day another sticking point the Left has with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis; they don’t care for his legislation making it “legal” to run down protesters. What the law actually did was indemnify drivers against liability if they were being attacked in their car during a riot and had to drive away to get to safety. Sheriff Grady Judd even brought photos to show the difference between a peaceful demonstration and a riot as “some people are slow learners.”
This wasn’t a riot, but it was yet another group of protesters deciding that blocking the road was the way to go to get their point across and change hearts and minds.
– environmental protesters close the road
– guy is in a hurry
– he slowly moves forwards
– they attack him

The second they surrounded his car, I was perfectly okay with him driving through them. We've all seen what can happen once they surround you. It's like dealing with feral animals.

1. He is on a roadway, not a sidewalk
2. He was defending his life and personal space
3. He remembers Reginald Denny— CM (@njoyzgrl81) February 1, 2023

In Texas, they are working on a bill to protect the driver in this situation. God, I love Texas.

It never ceases to amaze me how all protests, environmental, social, etc. always target and disrupt the lives of common people. I never see anyone attacking decisional centers and politicians. Why is that?

The vehicle is in the right. Technically they illegally detained them (kidnapping) and had every right to escape from the situation. The only thing I see they did wrong is they didn’t floor it. 😡

If people surround and attack a vehicle with people inside it's their fault when the occupants quite rightfully feel threatened and take measures to get themselves to safety. With zero desire to harm anyone I would definitely put my own safety ahead of all of them.

We’re surprised Texas doesn’t have a law in place yet when Florida and Oklahoma do. Just say you feared for your life.
