Florida and Other States Now Grant Immunity for Crashing Your Car Into Protestors
WTF????!!!!
I’m sorry, but I am speechless. I don’t know what else to write on this. I didn’t believe it when I first heard it. I thought for sure it had to be hyperbole or a misrepresentation of what the law passed in Florida actually said. Well, it is not hyperbole.
As described, bluntly, by Vice News:
As of Monday in Florida, a gathering of three or more people can be labeled a “riot” — and if they’re blocking the road and you feel frightened, it’s generally OK to run them over with a car. Historic monuments, however — Confederate and otherwise — receive special protection under the law.
I can only assume that throwing into the law that part about protecting Confederate monuments was to make sure the dog whistle here was actually a trumpet. I am quite certain the Proud Boys and others are taking note of this new law in Florida, and a similar one in Oklahoma and in other states. Duly noted. Yes indeed, our home-grown terrorists are high-fiving each other right now, and probably refitting the front of their trucks to make sure they don’t get dented too excessively.
May I note something? Terrorists ram vehicles into crowds in the street. Or did those events in Europe slip your minds, Republicans…
