Every single time a liberal is confronted with the facts of the violence of leftist mobs, they bring up Charlottesville. It’s literally ALL they’ve got. There are HUNDREDS of examples of leftist mob violence, but none of that apparently matters, because if “Charlottesville”. So done with their hypocrisy!

The depravity of a political group that WANTS someone to be killed, in order to achieve their goals, is unfathomable.

“I may have to draw the line at backing up and trying again though :-P.”

My wife once ran over a snake in front of a neighbor’s house - then backed up to run over it again (in a big Dodge Ram Van - 3500). She really hates snakes.

Just like having one of your homies get shot during an armed robbery, Aunty Faye should be charged with homicide in the event one of them is killed.

I would attempt to drive slowly through the mob. If they broke my widows trying to get to me 395 horsepower engine of my dodge ram would clear the field

Leftists confine their violence to their safe enclaves where people lack the means to defend themselves. One fine day, they will miscalculate and try their crap in a place where concealed carry is legal and widely practiced, and they will pay.

Yup. Just like Charlottesville where one group had the constitutional rights and a permit to gather assemble and protest

And then look who was painted as the “victims”

I saw the exact same maneuver by a woman v, rattlesnake in Oro Valley, AZ!

Hi.

Back in 2012 I had to take care of my elderly mother.

There was a Republican National convention being held in downtown Tampa.

Antifa anarchists etc. threaten to demonstrate and close the place down.

Just happens that my mother’s doctor was in close proximity to the Convention Center.

I called the “Schnitt Show” and told him that I needed to get to the doctors office, and would do so by any means necessary.

A few FReepers heard the call, although I don’t remember who (or if they are still with us).

The Jury is a rigged System to start with. Most folks do not realize how much they know about you. The research is to the point they can tell how you will vote and one must remember the System is controlled from beginning to end by lawyers. In actuality the judge always has the last say. The American Judicial System is a farce just like the search for truth. It is all about manipulation and power.

Good luck at the trial if you’ve got one of those on your car.

September 1968 was attempting to enter Travis Airforce base to pick up my husband returning from Viet Nam. Gates were being blocked by hippie antiwar bunch. His buddy who just returned in August was driving , He rolled down the window and told them what He was going to do verrrry plainly they immediately cleared the way to let us through. How times have changed.

Why should an elderly motorist have to explain his reasons to defend himself from an attack by a large group of thugs?

He did Nothing wrong or illegal that I could see except driving on a public highway where these same thugs were obstructing traffic,harassing him and damaging his property.

He had No reason to believe that his life was not in danger.especially after the way those thugs were behaving.

I Would have done the same thing.You don’t have to wait for your predators to attack.

The “Kent state” moment you mentioned was a disaster for the left. I lived through those times and the record shows that that was the last violent student protests against the war. When the hippies realized they might get their asses killed it was over. And Nixon won a landslide in 1972.
IMO the same would happen here. Once law enforcement cracks down and maybe a few are killed and the silent majority supports the crack down it will be over. These ANTIFA street punks are cowards.

I think the point, vis-a-vis juries, for this thread is this:

If you want to make a political statement with your vote as a juror, you have to play dumb during pre-trial juror selection. Once you are on the jury, then you can be your conservative self. Not before then.
