Get that man a beer.

Anyone protesting on an interstate should be treated as an unlawful belligerent.

They are going to crucify him. Attempted murder charge I guarantee. Local media is pushing hard the narrative he ran people over and incited the crowd. They are putting on their best saddened concern faces.

I just happened to be watching a live feed (I think it was KARE 11 on youtube, it's probably still viewable) while that was happening and the follow up for the last hour or so.  

There are multiple vids.  (they only show him slowing down from speed for a 1/2 mile ish, not approaching the crowd)

No crowd were known to be injured, the driver had minor injuries from the crowd, the crowd apparently detained the driver, and was arrested by police shortly afterward before the police dispersed the crowd of that section of road.

According to the witnesses as interviewed by the news crews on the scene, the driver said he was not trying to hit anyone, but was trying to intimidate the protesters.    According to the news just now, and the reporters at the time, 35W was closed and the driver intentionally entered the closed road to go toward the crowd.

(I don't know if it is true if the road was actually 100% closed or blocked etc...)


Edit:  Just now at 2021, the news said the truck was already on the highway as it was being closed.... the driver didn't drive around barricades.  

Again this is just from the channell 11 live feed, I'm not there.

In the third pic of the original post, you see the Class 3 Flammable placard under the trailer number of his tank. The UN number is unclear. It looks like it might be 1202 or 1203.

You know the deal: the driver can placard either the front of the trailer or the front of the power unit.

I feel like I am taking crazy pills. The way these media cock suckers are talking about it.....

He came barrelling into the crowd? YOU MEAN THE CROWD OF RETARDS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY?!?!?!

How dare he??? What was he trying to do provide a service so people could fuel up their vehicles and make it into work tomorrow? The nerve of this guy.

The placard on the trailer's nose is black and white , corrosive or poison. Flamable is red. None the less they need to stop these stupid fuckers before they torch a chemical plant, wharehouse, fuel rack, or God knows what else.

The LA Four got off with a slap on the wrist.  They should be serving life.  

I am not a truck driver but I don't want to get Denny'ed.  Lots of these rioters are racially driven.  Given the opportunity they will try to kill anyone who is white, out of rage and pure racism.

Driver taken for medical care although Department of Public Safety Commissioner John Harrington says he can't confirm how the driver suffered injuries.  You fucking serious, those thugs probably dragged him out of the cab and started stomping him.  I bet he was "arrested" in order to save his life.

He looked to be braking as people did not fully get out of the way.

One guy on the ground near front right tire.  

Possible driver was aware.


Sounds like he got beat for his samaritan efforts......

Looked like  two people sitting/laying on the ground in front of the the truck when he showered down on the brakes (one gets up and runs to the right). He wasn't trying to run anyone down.

I also notice they got the passenger door open as soon as he stopped. I always run with the doors locked, I'm not becoming the next Reginald Denny.

here's a video of the beatdown, the official sources are full of s***. He only suffered minor injuries from this?  If he didn't pass a legitimate on ramp barricade, he should have just kept going.

Side note:  one of the four is serving life - not for bashing Reginald Denny causing 90 fractures to his skull, but for murdering a drug dealer later, and another of the four was shot and killed later, ending his continued career as a criminal.  Ironically, if the four had actually been given the long prison sentences they deserved, two more black men might be alive today.

Hmm... The Interstate highway system, you say.
Seems like it would be a federal crime, and vigorously prosecuted.

But alas... It’s like the one thing the Supreme Court can’t be bothered to cover with the Commerce Clause
