Run them over. Protesting is one thing, but surrounding a car is a form of terrorism.

Same thing the guy in the Range Rover did in Manhattan to the gang of bikers who stopped him and started to beat on his car. If I have my family with me, I'm doubling down.

I have no idea what I'd do... I just hope and pray that I'm never in that situation. It's scary!

They aren’t protestors. Call them thugs or rioters. There is a point where the line is crossed. Don’t be brainwashed by the media

I would continue to proceed slowly, if they started damaging my car then I would call my husband, then the cops and put the petal to the metal. My husband has no patience for the BLM crap.BTW for those who may think him or I are racist we aren't but this BLM is getting ridiculous there are other races who have been persecuted as well not just them.

At least in most cases you could see this coming and avoid the situation.

You have a much bigger chance of being caught in a random mass shooting by a deranged white person in a seemingly safe public place, taken completely by surprise in an instant.

What should you do in case you can't avoid the situation and can't avoid being engulfed by protesters? I'd say have a BLM banner ready to go and some pallets of water. Fly the banner out your window and toss out free waters. Based on what I've seen on Long Island, I'm sure you'll likely be escorted through the blockage safely. You were never in danger anyway. But, I don't even like people touching my car, so that would be the concern.

Everybody would love to run them over, but you have to resist the temptation. If you do your life is basically over, not worth it

I would wait it out until they left but if they started to get aggressive I would go in reverse to get out of there, but If that was blocked off I would go full throttle forward

You need to look at the background of mass shooters. They are hardly just white.
