    They could have met the 10 cars waiting at the event at a local Sonic, parking at every other stall and safe distanced like a mofo.

    But it was an attempt to subvert Democracy. They wanted and succeeded in preventing one of the candidate's campaign from having outreach to voters.[/QUOTE]

    You would think they would know the difference between right and wrong. But in their desperation to follow trump down the rat hole... they have abandoned all morals, all integrity. Anyone with integrity could see the trump supporters were there to harass the Biden campaign bus. The people on the bus felt in danger and in fact called 911. They videotaped the people harassing them. And the FBI is investigating...

    FBI says it's reviewing Biden bus swarmed by 'Trump train' caravan, contrary to Trump tweet

    Has nothing to do with the Trump caravan attempting and succeeding in preventing candidates from connecting with potential voters. That was their intent, and they were successful. That is subverting democracy.

    There's no definitive proof of intent. You can keep saying that and continue to be wrong. Again what the Trump rally caravan did was childish and dangerous, The Biden supporter got baited in to driving reckless and causing an accident which makes him stupid, childish and dangerous.

    Ever had 4 or 5 pickups honking, tailgating and surrounding you on the open road for miles?

    I haven't, but I'm not an A list action movie star.

    Eliazar Cisneros have the FBI investigated him yet?

    He's on FB admitting and taking credit for it.
    He also drove through protestors in SA apparently.

    The intent is that they surrounded the bus and started slowing it down impending the bus' progress. The intent wasn't in question.

    Also, I can't continue to be wrong, because I haven't been wrong about this, yet.

    Unfortunately the video doesn't seem to support his foolish decision so says the San Marcos PD. That was easy.

    It doesn't have to be "hard" if what you're defending isn't questionable.

    Which is a far cry from what you claimed.

    The Police believe that it's not questionable that the black truck is the victim.

    No. That is exactly what I claimed. They attempted to stop the campaign from reaching out to voters and were successful. They cancelled several events because of a concern for safety.

    Also, why are you so eager to try and play-down Trump supporters attempting to subvert free speech and interfere with the practice of our Democracy?

    Intent is tough to prove. Intent to harrass is more easily proved. Intent to stop them from reaching out to voters isn't clear.

    They cancelled the events because they realized how embarassing it was to have 10 times more Trump supporters in that caravan than there were going to be Biden supporters at both destinations they were headed to. They can't draw many people with Biden AT the events.

    The fact that they surrounded and slowed them to 20 MPH seems clear to me that they were intent on hampering their progress to reaching events and functions.

    If you feel that surrounding and slowing down to 20MPH had other motivations then I guess we can agree to disagree.

    This is what was clear as day. They were trying to obstruct the vehicle, on a highway no less. That's is just dangerous behavior.

    The fact that it was overtly politically charged activity on their behalf sets off another series of alarm bells that no sane person would ignore.

    Anybody willing to participate in a stunt like that is a dangerous person and the people with Biden's camp were well within reason to fear for their safety, both on and off the road.
