"I don't care that I got fired. I already got another job," he said. "The only thing that upsets me about this situation is that adults are able to throw a tantrum and raise hell and get what they want by doing so. This is not how America is supposed to work."
He nails it.

He said this..
If you play in the road, you might get hit by a car. My parents taught me that when I was little," he said. "Now, her family has $225,000, because she played in the street, and people feel sorry for her family.
What a weird retard. Pretty certain he has now pissed off every one.

I took his point to be that illegally occupying a roadway is a stupid thing to do. So you're in favor of protesters (of whatever political persuasion) being able to illegally obstruct roadways at their whim?
I personally am not. I think whenever protesters illegally occupy a roadway they should be immediately removed by police, using whatever force is required.
That's exactly what we saw with the Phoenix police - and the opposite of what we've seen in many locales in California, Oregon, Washington, Virginia, and elsewhere.
I also believe that when trapped on a roadway amidst illegal protesters (or rioters), these illegal mobs can and often do become violent and attack vehicles and their occupants, in which case driving off at a high rate of speed is an act of self defense.
Selectively enforcing the rule of law according to political whim is the quickest route to totalitarianism. That's what you're arguing for?

There we go. Are we going to have our police enforce laws, or is it a free for all out there? If we're going with laws, enforcement necessarily entails whatever force required to do the job.
You shouldn't be allowed to outright murder people, but individuals intentionally blocking streets, roads, or highways with their bodies for illegal purposes should have no valid claim, whatever level of injuries or death they sustain by any driver "fearing violence".

He's currently doubling down replying to everyone in the comments section. It's like a train wreck.

I feel like there should be a post here objecting to the general idea that people should have to worry about losing their jobs because of the words that they decided to use to expres their political opinion.
Please let this half-hearted post serve to fill that role until someone who legit gives a shit comes along.

You have to take these threats seriously with all of the copycats these days.

While I agree she needs to be punished, there is a difference between saying you plan on doing something vs. Saying you hope it happens

One is a threat, the other is incitement (and potentially conspiracy).

Not much of a difference if someone acts on her suggestion
