    A couple of things to consider. First, where is the evidence of political intimidation by those in the car? Biden voters expressing their support through a flag etc who are driving through an area that may happen to have a lot of Trump support should no more encounter a crowd like that than Trump voters doing the same in an area with Biden support. No need for that kind of intimidation.

    Second, there is evidence suggesting that black and Hispanic support for Trump may well be greater now than it was in 2016, so one shouldn’t assume that all people in that neighborhood were upset to see the Trump support.

    I saw the video, and the cars to the side of and in front of the bus did appear to be engaging in dangerous actions that I don’t condone nor would I take part in.

    I don’t know why they had a police escort. Do we know if they secured one in advance or if the police escorted them on their own volition (e.g. out of concern for public safety, traffic issues, etc)?

    What a bullshit headline. The bus wasn't RUNOFF the highway. You also can't prove intent here and it's highly unlikely they were trying to potentially murder people on the Biden bus. Also the white car was starting it it looks like because they went into the black truck's lane to start ****.

    Are your kneepads ready? You ready to lick the salty nuts of Trump on Election night? It will make him feel better about his loss.

    Yeah you are right no intimation what so ever by trump supporters they would never do that. Do you always lie with a straight face or are you actually that ignorant and stupid that you actually believe what you write.

    So you essentially applaud what happened. It pisses you off that the FBI is investigating the incident, which has been reported and seen by millions across the country on countless news outlets. A violent attempt by a "caravan" of trump supporters to run a Biden campaign bus off the road on I-35 south of Austin, a stretch of Interstate I've traveled countless times, with members of the campaign aboard as well as a candidate for the US Congress, Wendy Davis.

    In fact, it forced the cancellation of 3 Biden/Democratic campaign events in the Austin area. I used the word "violent" deliberately, because anyone, except for you, of course, can see on the video taken of the incident a very large pickup physically force a small sedan out of the way so that the truck can tailgate the Joe Biden Campaign bus. A very dangerous thing to occur, something that could have easily caused a multi-vehicle wreck resulting in several injuries, or worse. It's on I-35, dude, or did you notice.

    You are well and truly a sad creature, with all due respect. You fit right in with the crowd of trump supporters currently picketing Attorney General Barr's house, demanding that he arrest Vice-President Biden and his son. Yes, it has become that insane. Why aren't you with them? I'm surprised that you have to time to post here.

    Well said! :cool:

    Trump supporters, either you are for law and order or you aren't. This selective law and order when it suits you is a crock of Bull----

    I dont know why I need to explain this. The truck was obviously acting recklessly. He could have easily cause the car to lose control and caused pileups and fatalities. Even if the car was impeding on his lane, the truck driver should have yielded.

    Regardless of what you may believe, standing your ground does not apply to traffic.
