    Red face NC House Passes Bill Shielding Drivers Who Hit Protesters ;D

    He explains the bill this way, "provides that a person driving an automobile while exercising due care is immune for civil liability for any injury to another if the injured person was participating in a demonstration or protest and blocking traffic."

    Translation: a driver who hits, or even runs over, a protester on a street could be shielded from lawsuits by the person they injure.
    But Burr wanted to be clear on one point. "Now this bill does not allow for a driver of a vehicle to target protesters intentionally. That obviously is not the intention."

    In other words, if you were trying to get from point A to point B and you just happen to hit a protester, or more, while driving through a demonstration, you would be protected from civil lawsuits.

    This bill is retarded, I understand it, but if you hit another person with your car and injure them, the injured persons lawyer will say that you hit them on purpose, perhaps because this dumb law said that you could. Seriously North Carolinians have mental defects if they can not see this

    That was always the case with North Carolinians.

    Would it be wrong to have these on the side of a car, like fighter pilots used to??

    insanity, beyond insanity. I'm so looking forward to the time when the moronic 'law and order' types declare open season on people they don't like so I can start killing them at random.
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.
