    A truck driver careened into a group of demonstrators in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Friday as they crossed the street during an otherwise peaceful protest of the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

    The unidentified male driver of a Ford truck rammed into several protesters — all of them women — at the tail end of a procession, rolling over one woman’s ankle and sending her to the hospital, witnesses said.

    He became “impatient,” as several witnesses said, and hit the gas, maneuvering around several cars to ram protesters.

    peaceful women were tear gassed outside the state capital in` phoenix az in the only other example of "antifa violence" that i have seen so far today.

    Just remember they allow violence against women and this will only get worse.

    as usual, before conservatives release their latest atrocity, we had several posts yesterday warning of the "usual" "leftist violence."

    also as usual, they are the violent, armed destructive idealogues.

    Oh I don’t blame them. Let them live in fear of what evil they have wrought and the plague they will inflict on their own houses.

    Sounds like an uprising to me. These women should be charged with treason.

    Running into the protesters is terrible and he should certainly pay for his actions.

    However, blocking traffic is illegal and dangerous.

    Yes actually I have a big book of all of Shakespeares work. My goal is to read through all of it. I finished Julius Caesar the other day. Do you want a handshake?

    No but that explains your odd and overly dramatic post. Thanks.

    It should not have taken place in the middle of a street.

    privacy is a natural right. not necessary to enumerate and "retained by the people." or as the founders wrote eloquently in amendment 9 ......

    “The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”

    not a Capital offense, even in iowa.

    aren't you an apologist for the "peaceable civil discourse" of jan 6? what is the matter with these protests? not violent enough for you?

    They do not always have the right of way. They were breaking the law. I have not been able to determine whether they have the right of way in this case. It does appear to be unlikely that they would have the right of way while breaking the law.

    what that I read? That I know Shakespeare? Do you even know why I offered you a handshake? Don’t like it? Too bad.

    I read Hamlet in college and enjoyed it a lot. I’ve read JC, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, and a bunch of his sonnets. Unfortunately I had to stop when I was moving apartments but in a bit I will have a new place. And then I will resume where I left off.

    Who said I do not like it? I do like a good comedy routine.

    Rights for the truck drivers and the unborn - all for it. Women? Not so much.
