There is another video from a different perspective that starts several seconds earlier.
The car door is open and nobody seems to be touching the vehicle. The car is mostly surrounded but could probably have backed up safely.
Then the car suddenly takes off very quickly and plows into a large number of people.
No slow wind up. No horn honk.
The car stops for a second after hitting a bunch of people, then takes off again, just as quickly even though are now a bunch of people stacked in front of the car, who cannot move. Then more people get hit and dragged in front of the car or run over.
I watched with my own eyes three drivers involved each of them coached by a leader two of them chickened out so the third one jumped in the car and plowed down innocent bystanders. This was a planned attack.
I fundamentally agree with you involving protests that spill into streets. This was in a parking lot. Assuming the business owner was ok with their presence there you can not drive into a parking lot where people are gathered for a protest and run people over.
City street, highway, run their ass over. Not on a parking lot though, that's vehicular manslaughter.
That is true, that gentleman could reverse in the video you're referring to.
Couple points.
Backing up a public street is different from backing up in a parking lot. It's normal to reverse in a parking lot.
2, in the former video, the Antifa were hitting his car, windows kicking, etc. This doesn't appear to be the case here.
Regardless, everyone, if you're going to protest in a street have a legal permit to do so. If on private property, don't prevent the free flow of traffic. No blockades, no preventing people from coming or going, exiting, etc. Don't shout at cars or do anything that could be misconstrued as hostility. Make way for cars, etc. We're a political movement, unlike antifa the terrorists group.
i.e. "My company set up their crawfish boil at the east end of the parking lot. Big crowd of people, and I hate crawfish. But I really prefer using that east exit, so eff 'em, I'm running them over."
In a road yes, in a parking lot, no. By your logic people could have a county fair in a parking lot and a car could literally drive into the parking lot and run people over who don't get out of the way.
It’s in a parking lot. Pedestrians have the right of way. You ever been to a sporting event or a concert where you’re often “trapped” by pedestrians? You think just because there’s a bunch of people that may be blocking you from getting out you can just run those people down too?
Look at :05 There are people behind the car... they don't appear to be blocking bu rather walking around... and there is another car behind the perp car. She wasn't clear to back out.
Having said that, I can't tell if people were willing to give the driver a path out as they should. Don't trap people.
I mistakenly assumed she was in a parking spot. You are correct, they should have given her berth in front of the car, we don't know if they would have done that had she not ran them over.
Link is above to slowed-down copy of video. The original driver of the car got out, and walked calmly away into the crowd without incident. The driver who drove into the crowd then entered the vehicle, closed the door, and almost immediately accelerated into people.
Looks like we're going to need clarifications on this law. These people weren't touching her car. They weren't acting like angry antifa lunatics or banging on her doors. They were standing there in a parking lot.
Right you are. It's starting to look like the car was purposely there to be used as a weapon. This is clearly not a case similar to other recent car vs people incidents where a driver is in the wrong place at the wrong time, people beat on car and try to pull out driver, and driver floors it to escape.
In this case the driver is outside the car and not being threatened, gets in car without asking for clearance to leave and drives through crowd. It looks intentionally designed to harm people.
To be fair, if I had people surrounding my car I'm not thinking about backing up. This driver may have been in a panic (I would be) and didn't realize she could have backed up. Point is, you should never surround someone's vehicle like that (touching the car or not) to prevent them from leaving. Allowing someone the option to leave via only backing up their car when they were already moving forward is not ok. I don't care which side you are on, don't surround someone's vehicle not allowing them to move forward. Wrong is wrong. I'm sure this post will upset people, but we can't bitch about the left doing something like this but think it's justified because the right is doing it. Just my two cents.
This did not occur. She was parked and not moving at all. Noone touched her vehicle. She does not have the right to run people over who are not actively attacking her. That's the law.
Yep she should have honked and not run over people and the crowd should have a cleared a path. I would say 3/4s surrounded, though without anyone touching her vehicle idk how she can claim she feared for her life
Making up a lot without any evidence. All we know from video is driver calmly got in the vehicle, unmolested by anyone, and deliberately drove into people.
Yes there were people standing around the car in the parking lot. Do you not see the car door open with someone entering the vehicle? If you casually walk around a car, open the door without being disturbed, saying you were fearful for your life is going to be a hard sell in any court.
The video isn't enough for what? It clearly shows she was able to back out of the parking space and that noone was touching her vehicle before she decided to accelerate into protesters.
Watch the video. She was clear to back out and noone was touching her car.
I did watch the video. Does backing out lead to an exit? Or was the vehicle trapped?

Thank you!
There are multiple videos. She had a clear path to reverse her vehicle and noone was touching it, she chose to drive forward instead.
This is what BLM rioters say.
The driver could back up.
Not taking sides. Just sharing fact.

You are right, but the drivers dont drive through til the blm mob starts hitting there car.
That being said, the crowd should have cleared a path for her.
In a parking lot, pedestrians have the right of way. In a road, cars have the right of way.
Other than that I agree the crowd should have let her through
That is true, that gentleman could reverse in the video you're referring to.

That's true for most of the biden riots
So Antifa and BLM commentators are correct. People just need to back up if they can.
Send a clip of a motorist who was not being attacked at the time intentionally running people over
It looks like a march was passing in front of her and most in the maga march were ignoring the car. She should have waited for the march to pass by
who fucking cares
im opposed to anyone blocking traffic regardless.
i.e. "My company set up their crawfish boil at the east end of the parking lot. Big crowd of people, and I hate crawfish. But I really prefer using that east exit, so eff 'em, I'm running them over."
That's damn near what this is.
If you decide the cross the road during a green light, that's on you.
This was a parking lot
Sir, this is a Wendy's.
Nobody was blocking her car. She had a clear path to reverse.

This was a planned, premeditated assualt.
Yeah, that makes it look very premeditated.
I keep seeing this mentioned, but in the videos I watch I never see this.
Yeah you're right.
Looks like we're going to need clarifications on this law. These people weren't touching her car. They weren't acting like angry antifa lunatics or banging on her doors. They were standing there in a parking lot.
She hopped in her car and immediately gunned it.
Right you are. It's starting to look like the car was purposely there to be used as a weapon. This is clearly not a case similar to other recent car vs people incidents where a driver is in the wrong place at the wrong time, people beat on car and try to pull out driver, and driver floors it to escape.

Would like to know what led up to this.

Looks pretty surrounded though and I cannot tell if people were hitting her. She definitely should have honked.

Looks surrounded from this end.

Do you have access to more video? It doesn't seem that clear to me whether they were blocking/harassing her or walking through.
The video isn't enough for what? It clearly shows she was able to back out of the parking space and that noone was touching her vehicle before she decided to accelerate into protesters.
I'm looking at this video and I see another car and people behind her. Can you take a screen grab and show me where you see she is clear?

I cant, I was a bit hasty on this one pede and now having to eat my words
