No, it doesn't matter what they were chanting. What matters is their actions. See the video Neveragain was kind enough to provide showing that the crowd was, in fact, moving as a whole when the car entered the scene.

I am fully aware of how these few operate. That doesn't mean they shouldn't be called out for flat out lying about what happened, even to themselves.

I didn't see even one person look both ways first. The situation is much worse than I originally thought. It's time to get back to the basics. Chances are the driver didn't check his tire pressure first either. Idiots in every direction in this situation!

So because they are marching on the street and moving...means they weren't blocking traffic? I really don't understand what your point is. Maybe I missed it between all of the eye rolling I was doing at time4fun.

That's right folks, just stand there and piss yourself while someone assaults you.

I said guns or car - your answer contained pirates and rocks.

Anybody who is claiming to see rock hurling pirates with any sort of regularity is not the type of person I feel should be able to posses firearms.

6 cars are corralled, quit making excuses for terrorists, because this is terrorism. If you have ever been in this situation then you know you are terrorized to the core when your vehicle is surrounded by a mob with a violent history. Your first instinct is to floor it and get the fuck out of there as any wise person should do.

The point is that it wasn't a group of people banding together to block a road because they wanted to block it, as you repeatedly try to make it out to be. It was a group of people moving from one place to another, down a street.

Also, as pointed out previously, in Virginia, pedestrians always have the right of way crossing any intersection where the speed limit of the road is less than 35 miles per hour. So even trying to make the argument that they were in the wrong for all crossing through the intersection like that, you would still be incorrect. They ALL had the legal right of way to be crossing it.

He wasn't flooring it to get out of there, he was flooring it to hurt and possibly kill people.

Again with the paranoia - just because there is a crowd of people around your car does not mean it's being 'corralled.' You must be a real peach to take to Disney World, or the mall during the holidays.

Six cars were stopped. Because pedestrians have the right of way, and they were waiting for them to move rather than trying to run them over.

Real pirates or Somali pirates?
