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 already know, that if some Floridian Neo-Nazi group gets a van thrown at them, the tune will immediately change as if they said nothing of the sort.
They will deny it was meant that way no matter who does it. There is no way he can protect someone who runs anyone over. This is just to encourage people to do it, and it’s wild that it may actually work…
I can’t even believe these are the things being said at all these days. Wtf is wrong with all of these people.
