      The protestors were protesting. This idiot could have turned around but he chose to start a fight. Once a fight starts, well, it’s a fight. The video is damning for him even more.

        The driver stopped, someone went to their window, the driver felt threatened and tried to get out of the situation, it escalated from there.

        Hell, someone entered the car from the passenger side and the driver had blood on their neck after the fact, that’s from the original article. Someone tries to enter my car or jumps on the hood, sorry buddy but I’m getting the fuck out of there as well!

          The start of the interaction, where the idiot driver starts the fight is at second 3 of the posted video. The guy charges a cyclist on an empty road and hits the breaks. He could just have U turned and gone on with his day. But he chose to start a fight. What happened afterwards I’m sure is a series of unfortunate choices by everyone involved. But the whole thing would not have started if on the second 2 the idiot had made a different, non-belligerent choice.

              The person going to the window on second 3 approaches the car after the car has charged the cyclist and screeching breaked during seconds 1-2 of the video.

              And even then the most likely explanation is that the person approaching is trying to tell him "hey man you can’t go that way.

              Finally, you talk about "approaching the window " as some kind of threat. Only a perpetually terrified Karen would freak out for that.

              You are hanging a LOT on “a person going to their window” and it shows how badly you want to see this from a certain perspective.

      Because the article I crossposted was the article I saw.

      Also, having now seen the video, everything it shows the protestors doing was right and good and I support their actions 100%.

        Yeah, threatening the person in the two tons car causing them to react and try to get out of there and putting your life in danger, that’s what I call right and good!

          Why are you lying? The protestors didn’t “threaten” a damn thing. The murderous piece of shit in the car attacked them unprovoked and they defended themselves.
