Great shot. Now go home

check the truck for explosives? looks like a technique military would use to detonate a crowd.

Vermin as the driver, are the terrorists. But its idol, Nazi murderer Trump , says victims are.

Great news!

Isn't driving a truck through sea of people considered terrorism?

Downshift and accelerate.

Good for him. ReginaldDenny

He had every precedent not to stop, not to slow down to a point where he could be killed by a Jew coup mob

Terrible!!! The driver is terrorist. The protesters should get guns to protect themselves to against terrorist.

It’s is a street designated for vehicles, right? Like sidewalks are for people?

Wow. I never thought we would see the day that the United States could be described as a 'failed State' - but under the 'leadership' of Donald Trump, that day has come.

Trump is a lowlife sack of shit. However, this headline is FAKE NEWS. A tractor truck does not drive into a crowd of 1000 protesters without killing people. The only person injured was the truck driver. How about “Truck Driver Scatters Crowd of Thousands.”. Come on Reuters!

Should’ve run over them

Good! Can you imagine if I didn’t, he would be dead.

Another enemy of the First Amendment.

HirokoTabuchi Just another triggered angry snowflake conservative acting out a rage fantasy. He probably justified it by telling himself they were liberals.

It cool 😎 .... folks should not block roads

Good

LAW&ORDER!

WedgeLIVE The road had been closed for an hour, this is not a Reginald Denny situation. Fucking trolls.

JordanUhl how many did he nail...

After he mirked a few... On the road again...

No he is driving down the road legally while people are foolish enough to walk in front of him. Not news really common sense says don't walk in front of moving truck

jaredlholt I would drive right through them scared to get my face beat in. Remember when this guy stopped in the LA riots

motarola123 Nope. Didn't drive into them. Intentionally avoided them.

Great!

Hahaha.

KropotkinPetyr Love this. Let's designate a few in each street to plow.

Would it not be self-defense if someone pulled out a gun and shot the driver? I mean the cops are quick to shoot people driving at them.

fake headline, rioters stood on the highway as truck comes round corner

How did he run people over with a truck and still no protesters were injured?

iamDougWarren What outcome was the driver expecting when he is speeding toward people on a highway idiots everywhere around us

I hope the truck is ok.

PaulRevere1999 Don’t play on the freeway and no one got hut except the driver.

Next time don’t stop

America is such a sick society

see this is why....looting is kind of understandable,burning the police station kind of understandable too but attacking THE WHITE HOUSE now that’s a different story..... 💔😪🤷🏻‍♀️

Wow! That's Very Dramatic?

Well, THAT'S attempted murder

JordanUhl That's high score right there bud

pure chaos

Reginald Denny would advise him not to stop.

JordanUhl They were looting the highway!

How can a truck drive into rioters and yet none are injured?

I would total drive through it at full speed.

These activities will create more problems rather than solving.

Guess they shouldn't be in the road then.

JordanUhl It is riots that must be stopped and those thieves rioters must be tackled

jaredlholt It's that guy from 1992 coming for revenge

Good

Great flame-fueling headline. Now talk about the only person who was hurt

Rioters

Whack AF

For your next headline how about 'Driver manages to stop truck in time, saving protesters only to be beaten and hospitalized by them.'

If I owned a business near the looters, I would put up a sign that says closed, You will be shot if you enter. I would stand my ground. No different than if someone was robbing my store.

“The driver then got out of the truck and was beaten by protesters, the Reuters witness said.” Yesterday it was a bowman flinging arrows into protestors, today it’s a trucker barreling ~10,000 gallons of fuel towards them. I hope compassion for humanity was what made him stop.

thegpodcast1

Shouldn’t it read “man on his way to work denied by jobless protesters on Minn. hwy”

Maybe the Trucker🚚 did not want to become a Victim 🙄as the Guy hit with a Brick in the Head by an Animal. See a Sample Below🧐👇Anyone with common sense would do the same for sure👇Right🤔Personal Safety is Important

He actually didn't though. What happened to Reuters? You used to be reliable.

When your president says 'Shoot them' it ain't a big surprise that people are going to do things like this. These are attacks (when IS does this it is called terroristic attacks). But tomorrow we will see footage from the trucker getting beaten and right-wing will miss-use it.

I said run them over

Chaos in US .. Wow .. “: Tanker truck drives into protesters on Minneapolis highway

I don't think peopleple realize if the top chambers of that truck is opened by rioters that doesn't know any better and heat/flame is near the entire truck goes up. It's a very large fire bomb.

What was he doing on a closed highway

Get out the road dumb ass people.

JordanUhl

I'm told a very fine person was driving it..

Cool what was the score

Alternate headline - 'riotera impede traffic on interstate'

Pulitzer Prize winner right there

And its fake, show the video. The truck stopped until overrun with rioters.

Awesome....

Finally...... some good news

That was a mistake. He's in the hospital now.

Yeah but then they beat the hell out of him.

give him a medal of honour...poor bloke, only doing his job. they almost beat hi to death.

East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'.... Oh, we gonna do what they say can't be done. We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there.... I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run...

wakeup

Did the cops let it onto the highway? Wasn't it supposed to be closed?

He should have been beaten harder

the driver tried to commit mass murder this is horrible

Terrorism?

YES!!! Didn't your momma tell you not to play in the street?

more reuters fake news -- he stopped and was beaten by rioters.

wtf

Waiting for Trump to say he's a good person...
