DeSantis was speaking on The Rubin Report on Wednesday when he said: "We also have a policy that if you’re driving on one of those streets and a mob comes and surrounds your vehicle, and threatens you, you have a right to flee for your safety.

“And so if you drive off and you hit one of these people, that’s their fault for impinging on you.”

DeSantis’ comments come ahead of the “No Kings” protests planned for June 14. Protest organizers have said the demonstrations are non-violent and are providing deescalation training to people taking part.

    You can run over ICE agents as long as you believe they are, in fact, protesters! It’s fascist governor approved!

      No ID saying they are ICE, so they very well could be protestors! You have no way of knowing and feel threatened…
