I don't understand why you are saying no to begin your sentence.
I fully understand that I am indeed describing an assault. Yes I am describing an assault. That's the point I'm making. Describing an assault that might happen in some instances where a vehicle is surrounded and the driver of the vehicle doesn't know the intentions of the people blocking the path.
I'd extend that to describing robbery, theft of a vehicle and so on. A vehicle could be stopped for any number of crimes.
I'm not saying the best thing to do is plow through everybody incase someone in front of you is a criminal.
But I can understand that if someone is run over as a result of blocking someone's path in certain circumstances I think it would be justifiable action. Which I can't see how anyone could disagree with but on this forum....who knows.
You are having such a hard time understanding because you are trying to push a different topic than what is being discussed. The bills in the OP are about protests, not assaults. Murder as a means of self-defense is a separate issue, and one that is very subjective.
I wasn't talking about a bill.
I was talking about your comment where you said there's no good reason for a random person to run another person over because they're blocking the way.
If you're talking about within the realms of a peaceful protest then I agree with you.
But if that protest takes any kind of violent expression then it could be justifiable to drive through people to escape violence.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
