I suppose you can use the word 'attack' to describe both when the guy swung at the rear of the car and when multiple people smashed the car after it stopped. The 1st guy didn't follow the car, throw anything at it, and nobody joined in. A reasonable person could perceive the 2nd attack as presenting an imminent threat to one's safety; the 1st, not really. I understand why you use the same word to create a false equivalency.

He struck it from behind. How did the driver know which of the following had hit the rear of his car, as he was looking forward in the direction of the one way street? Rock? Bottle? Cement-filled soda can (the police stated the left were throwing those)? Baseball bat (the left were carrying them)? Gunshot? Flagpole?

And how would he know more attacks weren't coming? This all happened in a matter of seconds.

See how easily attacking an occupied car from behind could startle the driver into fleeing?

The same thing happened in the other video. The attacked cars fled, nearly causing a 4-car collision at another intersection where pedestrians were present. Luckily, no one was hurt because that could have been far worse.

How do you know Fields even knew someone hit his car ? Wouldn't it be something if Fields tells his lawyer he was looking straight ahead and with all the noise, didn't know anything hit his car ? Instead, he claims to have had a blackout or a seizure or his brakes or gas pedal got stuck.

You can hear the loud smack in the video. If we can hear it from a distance, what do you think it sounded and felt like inside the car?

Meanwhile, no one outside the truly faithful were buying into his excuses for how he responded to what went on in Charlottesville. He called the counter-protestors "Thugs" at several points.

What a sorry excuse for a president.
No worse than the last one that brought this country to where it is now. Broke and broken...

If you look at the parking lot video with the the RX in it and then look through the long video with the Charger in it, they have something in common. A silver 4-door Cadillac. I think that car carried the coordinators of both events. Also if you look at the street mall event where there are many Police there was a woman in a gray hoodie with a cane and if you look at the video where the black man was beaten in the parking garage she was there again. She may have also been a coordinator. It seems these two were meant to keep the Police busy while the first two could be done without Police interference.

Now THAT is sick.


What kind of statement did he give to the authorities ~ do YOU have any idea while you are so busy trying to lay blame on the innocent?

Hand grenade? Semi-automic round? Pot hole?

Unless he's a moron (always a possibility in such circumstances), he knew damn good and well attacks were coming once he ran into those people.

He threw it into reverse and high tailed it out of there for good reason.

There's no evidence that's what actually happened. Just sayin'...
