Awesome, so if you see those maga people at crosswalks or outside of planned parenthood, go ahead and run them down

I don't understand how these MAGA Morons can't figure out that these laws they want are two-edged swords. If they can use it against normal people, then normal people can use it against them, too.
That's because you still think the system will act fairly, it won't. If you hit someone the administration likes, you're in trouble, if you someone they don't like, you're a hero. There's never been any intentions of fairness from the republicans, rules for thee not for me.
Maga has gotten the green light that rules don't apply to them especially after j6 pardons. If someone runs over a maga idiot you can guarantee courts will throw the book at the driver. Rules for the and not for me.
only if they attack you.
He said if they need to flee for their safety which maga snowflakes see a black person and will assume they're being attacked and need to flee for safety.
“Have Right to Hit [liberal, democratic, equality-seeking, anti-fascist] Protesters With Cars [but not pro-fascist, talibangelical, NAZI demonstrators]”
The subtext is important.
Same with right to hit Nazis and police with cars.
only if they attack you.
You really believe if the police attack you you can run them over with your car?
Morally, it depends.
idiocracy is here. told ya'll it'll come. i am so looking forward for a wrestler to be president after kaiser trump. it will be magical.
Weird. The more I look at DeSantis the more he looks like a protestor. Just me?
Fact check: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said drivers in his state are allowed to hit protesters if they feel as though their life is being threatened. So technically true. But still not great
Using the “Kyle Rittenhouse” excuse!
“I was so fearful, that I drove from my house in IL to another state with a rifle and shot people because, “I feared for my life! Not like it was murder or anything!”
So now all MAGOTS are free range, hit em if you see them and feel threatened!! So in FL you can run someone over via the governor! So fucking dumb! I can’t even try to understand what is truly going on in America because no one can other than all the oligarchs and billionaires running the country/world!!
Which means the same as their ridiculous stand your ground law: right wing traitor lunatics will get away with actual crimes, and normal decent folks will get busted.
Which begs the question I've been asking for some time now: If someone tries to run someone over, and they respond by (non-fatally) shooting the driver, who gets arrested? (Assume both are white republicans).
To make matters more complicated the driver is homeless and living in their motorhome, so were they also attacked in their own home?
Florida has Castle Doctrine AND Stand Your Ground. Anybody comes into your home or vehicle, give them an overdose of lead.
Which is the case pretty much anywhere, you have the right to escape.
I've seen videos of random people just surrounded after a football match or some other shit and they start just fuvking with the car and jump on the bonnet and try to open doors. I would 100% just floor it and good luck guys. But i don't think that's what he means.
Free speech is where people legally violently kill or injure you for speaking

In that case, I guess it's ok to splatter the folks protesting in front of planned parenthood?
We also have a policy that if you're driving on one of those streets and a mob comes and surrounds your vehicle, and threatens you, you have a right to flee for your safety. And so if you drive off and you hit one of these people, that's their fault for impinging on you.
it's a completely pointless law. You were already allowed to defend yourself if attacked by a mob (but not if you drive into the mob and then they start attacking you)
so yeah, if you go to a planned parenthood protest, and they all surround your car, threatening you and attacking your car, you can drive away.
A state governor just authorized vehicle ramming attacks against probably his own citizens. Disgusting and disgraceful.
He didn't "authorize" anything. That's not how laws or public policies are created. He's just bloviating like all MAGA Nazis. If it actually happened, the person would be prosecuted based on the law, and their defense of "The governor said it was okay!" would not be accepted by the judge.
He's authorizing terrorism against free speech as a loophole for getting around the first amendment
What if we hit him with a car?
He becomes Greg Abbott.
Greg Abbot was hit by a tree struck by a lightning bolt from god. If you run over DeSantis you're just doing the lord's work.

Just an FYI if you don’t smoke weed. But an AR15 and just be prepared. But if youndo smoke weed. But it anyways but don’t admit you smoke weed. Ever.

That means I have the right to put 9 rounds into the drivers seat before that happens.

He doesn't "say" that. This law was passed a while ago
I’m firing my gun at the driver in defense if they’re trying to hit me with their car
In a stand your ground state?
Haha, ok. Good luck, Attorney General James Uthmeier.
If an armed protestor shoots a driver who is driving at them with intent to cause bodily harm, they... Both have the right to possibly kill one another?
Driver has the green light. Gunman has the green light.
Cool, cool. Makes sense.
