    Man Deliberately Rams Vehicle Into GOP Tent Full Of Volunteers, Trump Responds

    Authorities in Florida said on Saturday that a man deliberately rammed a vehicle into a tent of Republican volunteers who were registering people to vote.

    “Jacksonville police say a driver intentionally crashed a van through a tent where Duval County GOP volunteers were registering voters Saturday afternoon,” The Florida Times-Union reported. “Several Duval County GOP volunteers were working at the registration tent when a white man in his early 20s driving an older – possibly 1980s – brown van pulled up toward the tent.”

    Lt. Larry Gayle of the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office told reporters that law enforcement was looking at the incident “as in reference to interruption of the political process.”

    “We are investigating this as a aggravated assault,” Gayle said. “Several people were in the area and could have been seriously hurt. … JSO is taking the situation very seriously.”
    The political violence of the 2020 election has begun.

    We need more stringent van control laws. You should need a license to operate one, and ID to buy one, and insurance to own one, and there should be a government agency to in charge of registering and regulating them, and...and...

    ...well, shit.

    The means are irrelevant.

    A targeted attack on a political party during a voter registration drive is the definition of domestic terrorism.

    This will go down the memory hole like the previous attack.

    If not dom terror it should at least be prosecuted as a hate crime. If the investigation determines that they were targeted based upon their political affiliation and not solely as a random target of opportunity the incident would certainly seem to qualify as a hate crime.

    A civil rights violation at he federal Le El, a hate crime at the state level.

    You can see a lot just by looking, if you know what to look for.

    Fucking sound guy. Probably a failed drummer or guitarist who likes "alt rock" but only the spoon-fed mass media kind that’s easy to find and "alt" in name only. 2 years or less community college in music or liberal arts; worked in some aspect of music retail (music store/record store/video fame shop in a mall). Blames every authority figure in his life for the fact that he’s not a rock star or celeb.

    We will see how I did if any more info comes out about the guy and how he ended up in FL at age 27 training to be a sound guy for the man.

    But the mug shot tells the story, if you’re around as many 20-something "scene" kids as I am.

    Open source confirming the driver was motivated by his dislike of President Trump.

    Not to be a dick, but how to you figure that? "To intimidate or coerce a civilian population" seems tenuous and ill defined.

    Whereas Aggravated Assault (F3, 5 years) is a chip shot for the SA. Five years in FL DOC is no joke, especially for this clown.
