1. Well, that was satisfying!

[Demovictory9]

5. lol

[Bettie]

45. It really was

just perfect.

[NonPC]

52. Good Job!

Inspiring that people will stand up to those thugs in trucks.

[Iliyah]

2. Good . ..

[magicarpet]

3. Fucking Nazis being Fucking Nazis,... with a full backip from the Nazi cops.

Fuck thems Nazis !

[underpants]

4. Good.

Fuck them.

[jcgoldie]

6. Those voters didn't seem very intimidated!

They might rethink that strategy next time.

[KewlKat]

7. Watching these men take a stand against the trumper made

Me burst into tears. Why must it be this way? Why must we all have to fight so hard to be heard at the ballot box?

How can we as a nation ever embrace one another and move this nation forward to fight disease and injustice. I pray the dems can be elevated to as many positions as we can and find the path we as a nation we can all walk on.

[Hortensis]

20. :) Maybe lower your bar to most of the nation embracing,

and we've been there for a long time now. A solid majority of Americans. Our nation already has a path most do and all can walk on.

It's a mistake to judge an entire nation only by the troublemakers who will always be part of it. It is of course the majority's job to control them and we have been falling down on that.

[DeschutesRiver]

30. ....

What u said....truth.

[jaxexpat]

59. Government has been shared equally (or more than equally) with a minority, Republicans.

Maybe this problem will end in 2020.

Democracy doesn't work under minority rule.

[Hortensis]

60. Since 1980 government's been mostly controlled not just by

Republicans elected by a minority of voters but by Republicans selected by the new plutocratic classes to represent them. You, and Nancy Pelosi below, are so right what works for them doesn't work for democracy.

[BComplex]

42. As long as fox propaganda and hate radio is allowed to divide us so completely, we will

never again be the UNITED States. Something has to be done about the propaganda and the lies. All .....EVERY SINGLE ONE....of the legitimate news channels needs to start calling it out for what it is. Until that is done, we will never be able to bring this country back together.

[Goodheart]

8. Why was that shit show entitled to a police escort?

[Willto]

11. My Thoughts Exactly

What the hell are the police doing helping these fascist assholes. What are they a private Trump parade security force now?

[haele]

32. Oafkeepers. They are probably "protecting" family or buddies in those trucks.

And they're probably not afraid of any repercussions from their immediate racist or "only blue lives matter" spewing superiors.

Haele

[Hortensis]

21. Not exactly how I would describe it. I'm not exactly

disappointed that no one was killed, or even injured.

[mucifer]

9. AWESOME!! So glad there are cell phones. It could have gone bad quick

[samnsara]

10. wow i even found my self yelling "back the fuck up! go out the other way"

[GoCubsGo]

12. I admire those people even more for their restraint.

I don't know if I could have let that asshole drive off without holding my car keys or some other object against the side of his truck, the way they refrained from doing.

[Ilsa]

22. I would have probably tried to take his flag down,

Not to destroy it but put it in the bed of the pickup where it wouldn't be seen.

Was the truck within 100 feet of the polling station? If so, they broke the law.

[GoCubsGo]

28. Yeah, that thought also crossed my mind.

I don't condone vandalism, but damn. They make it hard not to stoop to their level.

Good point about the law-breaking. In some states, it's 200 ft. Either way, he probably was in violation.

[dreamland]

13. So how does this caravan get a police escort while in Texas...

The Biden Harris bus gets no help.

[Fla Dem]

17. Racist cops.

[sakabatou]

23. From what I gathered, there was escort, but the MAGAts outnumbered the police

[dreamland]

41. Thumbs up

[yellowdogintexas]

58. Police provided a barrier between the regular folks and the MAGATS

which is a good thing. Kept the Magats in the truck; If they had not been there, no telling what those disgusting idiots might have done.

[Bettie]

46. Because cops are, generally speaking, MAGATs

they adore that orange thing and have utter contempt for the majority of the people of the communities they work in.

[Augiedog]

14. Cops seem to get stupider by the day

[Fla Dem]

15. Good thing it wasn't a bunch of Black guys with Biden flags driving by a White polling place.

They'd either be dead or in jail .

[Illumination]

16. Moral of the story is: Don't mess with the HOOD! I don't think they were talking about the

vehicle's hood either!...

[panader0]

25. "Git out our hood bro!" Love it.

[Illumination]

31. The grammar could use some tweaking, but overall I love it too!...

[Amaryllis]

34. Get ya'll bitch asses outa our hood was even better.

[warmfeet]

18. Nazi cops. Just fucking wonderful.

Full on, in the open, and blatant in your face.

If this is law and order, I don't want any part of it.

Seems like the cops are really begging to be defunded. I think we should accommodate them.

BLM

[aeromanKC]

19. Hog Boy

Bwhahahahaha!!!!

[cp]

24. And THAT'S how you do it!

Non-violent and powerful. Thank you.

[dalton99a]

26. Nazis protecting Nazis.

[RexLipton]

27. Everywhere these tRump caravans roll

I hope they're met with resistance like this! We can't allow this intimidation to continue.

[AllaN01Bear]

29. i love it .

git out of our hood bro!! . my new line . why are we paying taxes for this nonsense . they protect the rich thats why.

[seta1950]

33. I love it

They wouldn’t allow them in

[Solly Mack]

35. Voter intimidation/protected and enabled by cops.

Good on the community.

[BobTheSubgenius]

36. The number of cops OBVIOUSLY devoted to Drumph is troubling.

That they are so brazenly showing that support, even on duty and in uniform?

OUTRAGEOUS!!!

[hamsterjill]

37. I hate this!

Please don’t get me wrong. I’m glad these people took a stand and stood together. I wish this had happened with the Biden Bus yesterday. I’m glad there was no violence. It should not have to come to violence.

So what is it that I hate? I hate that this is happening and that it was necessary for these people to stand in the street and resist. I hate that I heard the “n” word on that tape more than once, and I hate that it is (yet another) instance in Texas.

We are going to be in a war zone down here. If we must, then we must. But it shouldn’t have to be that way.

[wryter2000]

38. I've watched this three times

so far.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

39. Look at it through a different lens. Cops were escorting a funeral procession.

............ .........

It will be informative to learn if these cops receive disciplinary action.......

[yonder]

43. +1. Funeral procession is right.

[burrowowl]

54. Yes, tRump's admin funeral!

[58Sunliner]

40. Better not come to my hood either. Good for them!!

[sandensea]

44. Cheeto wants his Reichstag fire

And of course, he thought provoking black men would be the easiest way to incite something.

Repugs always think so.

[Tom Rinaldo]

47. Non Violent POWER! Yes! n/t

[TexasBushwhacker]

48. Pretty remarkable

The Biden bus was doing nothing more than ENCOURAGING people to vote.

The Trump caravan was trying to DISCOURAGE people from voting.

In America

[Blue Owl]

49. K&R

[Judi Lynn]

50. Wonderful. It needs to happen again and again from now on, everywhere! Thank you. n/t

[birdographer]

51. How we all feel!

This is the response we all have to those a**h*** trumpers, GET OUTTA HERE! Nobody wants them around. If the roles were reversed, those cars would have a lot of broken windows and head- and tail-lights, I guarantee it. Trumpers wouldn't just be yelling. Such as with the Biden bus. I really hate those people.

[flying_wahini]

53. I live here. Tried to go see Kamala but they fucked that up for us too.

Bastard cops in FW.

[NoRoadUntravelled]

55. Good. Good. Good.

This is how it's done.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

56. Whomever it was we heard speaking throughout (was it the

gentleman with the megaphone?) was fantastic! Cotrolled, but unrelenting, were-not-having-this-shit-in-our-neighborhood patter.

[Chemisse]

57. This was excellent! That truck had to turn around.

How humiliating!

[FakeNoose]

61. I'm glad I don't live in Texas

... but if I were ever to move there, Fort Worth is the place I'd want to live in.

It's actually a very livable place with a funky "small town" feel. The police don't seem too intrusive, but what do I know ... I've only visited there a few times.

This northern girl has visited the Dallas/Fort Worth area maybe 9 or 10 times, and I felt the most comfortable in Fort Worth. I hope they come out of this OK.
