Let's say for argument sake that happened. Does that give him the right to run down a bunch of people?

If he fears for his safety... yes. What did you say to sangha?

It's not logic. You are throwing sh*t against the wall to see what sticks.

Sure it is... I asked a question to see if you would be consistent. If you don't want to answer then don't... but trying to argue out of it is silly.

He didn't run down a bunch of people. In the video, I saw one woman who was down, and I doubt that the driver was even aware of her, as he had people on the hood of his car when she was shoved. It would have obstructed his view.
 
Maybe he ran them over after they started damaging his car and threatening to kill him?

This is a great game... isn't it? You condemning a person with very little in the way of facts.

The video belies your point. He had a way to go instead of through the crowd. Once he decided to go through the crowd he had no regard for human life. No one was pounding his car until he hit someone.

They were on his car because he knocked into them, not because they wanted a joy ride.
 
Were any of the people who were hit in *this* incident charged with a crime?

It is to show that blocking traffic to protest is NOT jaywalking... stay on point buddy. ;)

Don't want a ride on the hood of a car? GET OUT OF THE ROAD! :roll:

No it's not silly. Your point is silly because it did not happen. People would be more sympathetic if there was an emergency in that car. That was not the case.

No it doesn't.

He had a way to go instead of through the crowd.

A way to go... yes. What if he needed to go straight or turn right? Then they were blocking...

Once he decided to go through the crowd he had no regard for human life.

Oh please... that is ridiculous.
 
Since there was no one around his car until he ran his car into pedestrians, I do know

IOW, you have no point.

He pulled up to them and attempted to slowly drive through... you do not know. This is a great game though...
 
They didn't have time to get out of the rode. He drove directly into them.

What nonsense is this? They had untold minutes (1-30?) to get out of the road. The second they walked into the road they had time to get out.

No it's not silly. Your point is silly because it did not happen. People would be more sympathetic if there was an emergency in that car. That was not the case.

I asked to see what you thought... don't answer. Let it go...

The reason why there were people on the hood of his car was because they were trying to avoid being run over by his car.

"Your Honor, it's not my fault I ran over that woman because I couldn't see her for all the people who had piled up on the hood of my car to avoid me running them over"

Umm, no. You responded to a post of mine asking if any of the protesters had a criminal record.

There is no record of any of the protesters who were hit by the driver having any criminal record, AFAIK.


Stay honest, friend.

No, that is not time for people to clear out. Many probably didn't even know what was going on until he came up on them.
 
It's not at all ridiculous. Actions speak louder than words.

Once they decided to step into traffic they had no regard for their own life. See how easy this is?

OH MY GOD!!!! They were in the ****ing road WHERE CARS DRIVE. What the **** do they think is going to happen? Holy **** rabbit, this is getting ****ing stupid. :lol:

They were not jaywalking... to say that they were is a lie. That is honesty.

Right, so next time a group of people cross in front of my car illegally, I will hit then like bowling pins just because I can. Hell they are in the road in my f*ckin way:roll:
 
As if anyone would purposely step into a moving car:roll:

Why don't you go and sit out on your local freeway and come back and report to us how it went?
