    I don't blame that poor guy for one second. That was a mob looking for blood. I would have gunned it far earlier.
    Driver was pulled over later, not ticketed nor arrested.
    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

      I heard something when I first tuned in that they may have self reported?

        KSTP chopper followed the car until it was pulled over. I know very little other than that. Once the protesters started smashing the windows of the car, I'd have done what the driver did at that point: GTFO.

          This is completely inaccurate. This video makes it quite clear that the driver of the car was the aggressor (leaving aside the stupidity of protesting in the street in the first place). Once the crowd is smashing his windows, well, he doesn't have much choice...but "poor guy"? Give me a break

            The car had every right to inch forward. Was the driver going a little too fast? Yes. However, MOVE OUT OF THE GD WAY.

              No, he really didn't. Sure, it's was illegal to be protesting in the street. But that does not give drivers license to use their cars as battering rams against them. I can't believe you honestly think that.

              You know what you do? You do what the other drivers around him were doing, you go around and let the police deal with the illegal protesters.

                Kind of difficult to move around that crowd, watching that video. And yes, he has every right to inch forward. It becomes the law-breakers' responsibility to move out of the way.

                There's probably a very good reason he was not arrested nor ticketed when he was pulled over soon afterwards.

                  Watching the video, you see multiple other cars doing just that.

                    Perhaps there protesters should have figured out what some have. Don't play in the streets and you won't get ruin over.

                      Also, we still don't know why the guy went through the crowd. For all we know they were starting to throw rocks at him or jump on the car.

                        In fact, if you actually watch the video. People are jumping on the car before he even starts pushing through.

                          So you want the driver to break the law by driving on the other side of the street; in other words, yield to the law-breakers. Got it.

                          If I'm behind that wheel, not happening. I have the right to that road. The protesters don't.

                            Or, you know, you go at a reasonable, safe speed and not hit people with your car.

                            Blocking traffic is near the top of the list for non-violent protests. It's disruptive and an inconvenience but, outside of idiots like that driver, it doesn't really hurt anybody or, since this country is overly concerned about it instead of people being killed, any property. Stop getting worked up because people blocked the street, maybe be a little more concerned that a person decided to run their car into a large group of people.

                                I already said that the driver should have gone slower. But I maintain him driving ahead was warranted, and if some idiot doesn't want to move, well, screw 'em.
