This is what I read about that event. “In response, people at the protest tackled the man and attacked him. At least 15 people pinned the man against his vehicle to punch, kick and throw things at him. His face was left bloody and his vehicle was looted and flipped, according to 2News reporter Kelly Vaughen“ https://www.google.com/amp/s/kutv.com/amp/news/local/slc-protesters-ignite-the-vehicle-of-a-man-who-pointed-bow-and-arrow-at-them https://www.google.com/amp/s/kutv.com/amp/news/local/slc-pro...

There need to be consequences for threatening people with a deadly weapon. An overturned truck is mild in such a situation. I'd have expected at least a broken bone, but, no, only a bloody face. Try that with the cops.

  This is not unharmed. You clearly knew about the case yet you deliberately obfuscated the facts until you were called out on it. Instead of backpedaling own up to why you would try to distort the facts. This is not to say the fellow with the bow and arrow isn't a complete imbecile, and didn't deserve what was coming. On that I have no view.

    At least the fellow still has all his teeth, unlike that physician that Chicago transport cop pulled off that plane.

      Still should have at least said something like “nearly unharmed” instead of “unharmed”?

      So your definition of unharmed is somewhere between unharmed, and the beating by the Chicago transport cop of a physician on a plane. We're talking apples and oranges, HarryHirsh, and I don't think you're willing to view this discussion in good faith. Good day.

Wow, that guy is lucky he didn't accidently flag a cop with his bow; they would have beat him with truncheons, pepper sprayed him, then killed him with a blood choke!

  No, he's white. He might have been arrested at most.
