Man arrested for driving truck towards anti-fascist protesters in Vancouver

[zenkai]

Its a shame that people feel the need to emulate vehicle attacks on pedestrian gatherings. Guess they've been staring into the Abyss for too long?

Incident took place after far-right Patriot Prayer rally in city of Vancouver.

Late on Sunday, immediately after an “alt-right” Patriot Prayer rally in Vancouver, Washington, a man aggressively reversed a truck towards a crowd of people who had been counter-protesting. Later, the same driver was apprehended by police.

The incident came less than a month after the car attack that killed Heather Heyer in Charlottesville, Virginia, after an alt-right rally which she had protested against.

Video from local journalists showed the truck reversing down the street towards counter-protesters, blaring the Confederate battle song Dixie on a novelty airhorn. The truck, which had been circling the town, was reportedly pelted with water bottles and other missiles.
...
Protesters claimed that a second truck, white and carrying four passengers – one wearing the black polo-shirt uniform of the “Proud Boys” group, another wearing a Donald Trump cap – was also driving at high speed through the streets, reversing and veering dangerously close to protesters.

Glad to see Roscoe and Boss Hogg finally arrested the suspects.

Pretty much.

Some anarchists are pissed because someone else raised the anarchy bar on them. Violence begets violence and thats exactly what happened.

So someone was recklessly driving a truck with a trump hat on


It's not hard to kill crowds of people, particularly drugged out liberals. Either this article is poorly written or I'm missing the part where they hit people.

Aww did the little baby protesters get scurd because the big mean truck driven by another little baby protester back up near them? Aww so sorry little baby protesters, don't worry we will punish the mean baby protester.

Apparently, people struggle even more with the concept that the slaver conspiracy failed...<

And, FTR, even if your Twitter masters tell you it's not, it's fracking illegal to run over people with your truck, even if you have a certificate of blood purity signed by your local Kavern.

oh no the "slavery conspiracy" is alive and well on the liberal plantation.

Yeah, the Waffen SS too was notoriously only good enough to murder civilians.

Imagine if the dude had been an Arab. The usual suspects would be screaming to bomb a random country.

This is a massive leap from what actually occurred which is hateful idiots went to other hateful idiots' protest and a threatening thing happened to them.

Your the only one bringing up arabs here so i guess that makes you the usual suspect you always talk about.

[AeneasBK]

Didn't get very far lol

People are excusing a dude driving a truck into protestors (presumably because of the Holy flag of the traitors), so I'm wondering what was the reaction if the dude had been flying the flag of ISIS...

A non socialist driving a loud vehicle is not terrorism.

Yeah, Vancouver is in the US, of course.

Need to put liberal in quotes because these people aren't liberal. They're all illiberal assholes.

Ye, its only okay to run over anti facists!

When you come out to defend people who run people over, and get run over yourself. That's karma, so fuck them.

Hahaha, what the fuck, they are not protesting to allow people to run others over.
Jesus, where do you people come up with this stuff to justify killing those who oppose fascism?

TIL there's a Vancouver Washington.

Maybe I'm getting old but fighting with violence only galvanize the cause. Something ANTIFA and the alt-right needs to learn.

Nah, Hitler's raise to power could have used way more violence from the opposition. Violence is not always the answer, but its also not always not the answer.
