Don’t know what anyone else is experiencing but there are many items we are having trouble getting, including an immunosuppressant life sustaining drug my husband needs and us in desperate supply. The supply line is being affected. So now it will be even greater because our truckers are going to be slowed down Or stopped dead in these rat infested cities by protesters. Get the hell off the streets and freeways. George is dead, the killer is in jail awaiting justice.

Thanks. As hard as we all worked to keep our stores supplied with groceries during the COVID-19 scare, it really cuts against my grain to say that. I’m not volunteering to become Reginald Denny II, though. I don’t think any other drivers are, either.

Nobody should have to drive to unsafe areas of urban violence.

Maybe if enough drivers cease deliveries, politicians will listen. Not holding my breath though.

Thank God he’s not been ripped apart dead. And thankfully he stopped. All hell would have broken loose if those two people had been flattened like a dime.

The trucker should not have taken it upon himself to disperse the crowd. What he was doing was intentional apparently, he was upset about the lawlessness and had been trying to disperse the crowd with his horn and size. But two people layed down right in his way.

The driver is being charged with a crime? Yet the people who assaulted him are not? The looters are not? The rioters are not?

What country is this? WTF?

Yes, that’s what I think as well.

Most likely, to me, is the guy was just doing his job delivering gas, and took a wrong turn.

But that’s idle speculation.

“DPS officials say no protesters were seriously hurt. “

Shit.

Back when laws were not for controlling the serfs it was. Things have changed.

"Peacefully protesting."

I always block the highway when I'm peacefully protesting. What could go wrong?

THE ARRESTED THE DRIVER??

Yea our country is DONE! Do these idiots understand if someone shot or punctured that truck it would haved been over for everyone around there?

The communist have won. We only have ourselves to blame for being cowards. Look at posts on this very forum that are constantly trashing POTUS for his “mean tweets” or being afraid to take a stand because we look bad.

Those people had no business being on the bridge. The authorities who allowed these morons to assemble there are the ones who should be in jail.
