Blocking traffic doesn't make it ok for people to get run over. Feeling intimidated by a crowd  also isn't a good enough reason to run over people. One can always open up a map and pick another route, and even then, if blocking traffic is a headache, there are law agents to arrest or disperse the crowd, there's no reason for a random person to run over another person just cause they are blocking the way.

No law should promote the killing of another human being, but I'm gonna point something out real quick. If one is in reasonably fear for their life or of great bodily harm, they have the right to use lethal force in self-defense or defense of another. Generally speaking. In a riot situation though, it would be hard to isolate exactly who was threatening you though. 

Whatever. 

The proposed law in the OP sanctions killing and is so horribly vague on its face that almost any court would declare it void.

I make it easy -- I avoid protests.

First off, the law already protected someone who is in a vehicle and under attack.

So what does it really accomplish?

Reading AT's gleefulness, I believe he's ecstatic at his political enemies dying under color (but not actual) of lawful action.

Just like Jesus would have wanted.

Oh yeah giving driver the right to commit possible mass murder or mass mutilation because they" feel" threatened. I can totally see this not backfiring .I totally don't see escalating violence at protests. Yup the protesters aren't going to start counter measures to this. They are just roll over and die. Once again Republicans prove they don't think there plans through.They just do them. Can't wait to see the next time a democrat wins an election if A asshole still supports this law when it's conservatives being killed in mass my guess is not.

Oh, they do. They absolutely expect for something like that happening. Look at the people cheering this on here. The lowest what humanity has to offer in terms of compassion and reason. Trusting them to piss on you while you're on fire would be entirely misplaced.

Just wait until someone runs over some protesters at an abortion clinic.
