Fear Realized

This is what I fear will happen here in the US. Mobs surrounding someone and either being ran over or worse, shot. I can understand the fear of the driver. And I think this is the terrible result that could follow.

What say the of the LR.

I'm not sure what you're asking. I agree that when mobs surround people the chances of something unfortunate happening goes up.

You have odd fears. Not sure why you fear this? I would hope the protestors are well aware that if your going to use only your body to block a road there is a high likelihood you will get hurt or killed.

It took my wife 90 mind to do a 5 min journey this morning

Eventually she drove through it a bit over enthusiastically

Basically 100 people rocked up this morning. By the time I got there on my bike they were well in to a days drinking........

A big day out

My wife said she got out and told them she didn't give a fuck. She had two kids and wanted to go home

Of course it has happened in the U.S. The neo-Nazi who ran over a mob of counter-protesters at "Unite the Right," killing one. The Kent State shootings of a student mob protesting the My Lai Massacre. Of course Martin Luther King assassinated while supporting a mob of striking workers.

If you want to go way back, on March 5, 1770, someone in a mob of liberal protesters threw a snowball at a British soldier, who slipped and fell. The other soldiers panicked, and fired into the mob, killing 5.

I appreciate a person who understands history. Thanks for the post.
