Yes you will be the aggressor. You’ve decided you want to murder someone for inconveniencing you and you are hoping for a justification. This is pretty fucked up, right here.
It's called self-defense, dude. And if protesters were smashing your windows in too and you started shouting through them, "Hey, can we just talk about this!?" You're dead.
Good luck with that.
I agree, if a mob is attacking your vehicle, leaving the scene by driving off is completely reasonable. If the mob gets injured by someone seeking safety, that's on them.

That's pretty typical of people raised in cults, though. I've known a lot of Mormons and Christian Scientists, and they are tend to have reasoning abilities 5-10 years below their actual age.

Again, where is fal to call you a make believer? Lots of make believe right there
I've seen it happen in the LA riots. It doesn't always happen, of course, but it can.
We arent talking about LA riots dude. Way to stick to your convictions
He made up a scenario and then made up a reaction to it based on his own outrage.
You are so quick to call everyone a make believer except the trumpers who are actually making shit up.

I had hardly used this account for 8 years until I dropped in here. It's been a great learning experience you're all providing me with.

How about some irony. Anyone in the mood for irony? (You can see my long post about it in the "who are the terrorists?" thread.

Ahh, that makes a lot of sense. You remembered one day that you had a Shroomery account so you came to have fun trolling us. This explains why your logic has never been consistent and why you never back up points with evidence.

Actually, I'm starting to get back into psychedelics and I was curious what kind of influence, if any, the psychedelic experience has in relation to political ideas and positions.
Your claim I have faulty logic and don't back up my ideas with evidence is unfounded.

Interesting, so your means of doing that are by essentially stirring the pot. I've actually been reading your posts and responding sometimes, you prefer to "back up" your opinions by stating more opinions then eventually posting some video from Youtube as if it's the last word. When someone responds with a well constructed counterpoint you don't engage. I watch people attempt to debate you when what you really want to do is argue.
Nice "experiment".

Luckily for the driver, he didn't stick around to take that chance, but he was clearly attacked.
I'm not even saying they would have killed him. I'm saying I understand Vahn's point, which everyone here refuses to do.

Are you talking about during the Rodney King riots when that truck driver got almost beaten to death? Because that was 28 years ago, the driver survived, and the three people who attacked him got hard time. Also, he was saved by other rioters.

But he was savagely attacked for no apparent reason right? And just because he survived it doesn't mean he didn't have permanent injuries after the attack...

Yes. Should drivers allow themselves to be nearly beaten to death if they think the attackers might go to jail?
I'm not saying what's right, I'm saying I understand the guy who doesn't want to get beaten to near death.

Anyone who drives into a protest March at this time should expect to be attacked and beaten nearly to death. It's no different than running up to a big crowd and threatening them with any other weapon. A violent reaction is both expected and completely justified.
Reginald Denny was a different set of circumstances. That beating happened early as the riot was forming. He had no way to know that was going to happen at that time and did not provoke his attackers.
