When you search the internet for how to clear a road of protesters all you get are links to “How to protest”. Its time to gather your friends and family and stop these fools. Take up arms, if necessary, and protect those who are going to work to support their families.

These states are making it easier to go to work and to be FREE in America…


Florida


Senate Bill 1096 was introduced in the Florida Senate in February.

Similar to bills in the other states, SB 1096 said the driver must be “exercising due care,” and the person in the roadway must be there to protest and be purposefully blocking the vehicles.

SB 1096 also had the caveat that drivers were not immune from liability if they willfully caused injury.

Investigators inspect a truck following a shooting incident in New York on October 31, 2017.
Several people were killed and numerous others injured in New York on Tuesday when a suspect plowed a vehicle into a bike and pedestrian path in Lower Manhattan, and struck another vehicle on Halloween, police said. A suspect exited the vehicle holding up fake guns, before being shot by police and taken into custody, officers said. The motive was not immediately apparent.

North Carolina


North Carolina’s HB 330 excuses drivers from liability if they injure a protester who is blocking traffic.

The bill was introduced in March after last year’s protests in response to the police shooting of Keith Lamont Scott in Charlotte.

A subsection of the bill notes that the driver could be held responsible for injuries if they were caused willfully.

The driver’s immunity also hinges on whether the injured person was part of a protest in which a permit had been issued.

North Dakota


North Dakota’s HB 1203 was introduced in February in response to Dakota Access Pipeline protesters who stalled construction by blocking the roads.

Protestors march to a construction site for the Dakota Access Pipeline to express their opposition to the pipeline, at an encampment where hundreds of people have gathered to join the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe’s to protest against the construction of the new oil pipeline, near Cannon Ball, North Dakota, on September 3, 2016.
The Indian reservation in North Dakota is the site of the largest gathering of Native Americans in more than 100 years. Indigenous people from across the US are living in camps on the Standing Rock reservation as they protest the construction of the new oil pipeline which they fear will destroy their water supply.

Rhode Island


Rhode Island’s HB 5690 protected drivers who are “exercising due care” and who injure a protester blocking the road.

The suspect being held in a Virginia jail in connection with a deadly crash near a scheduled rally of white nationalists has been identified as James Alex Fields Jr., 20, of Maumee, Ohio.

As in several of the other bills, drivers aren’t immune from liability if they purposefully injure a protester.



Tennessee


Tennessee’s SB 944 and HB 668 would protect drivers from being held liable if they injure a protester who is blocking traffic in a public roadway.

Like several other states, Tennessee’s bills said a driver would not be immune from liability if they injured a protester on purpose.

STATUS: HB 668 failed to pass the Civil Justice Committee. SB 944 is awaiting the approval of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Texas


HB 250 showed up last month during the Texas Legislature’s special session.


Under this bill, drivers couldn’t be held liable if they were “exercising due care” at the time they injured a person in the roadway if that person was participating in a protest.

The bill didn’t excuse drivers from liability if they were being negligent. But unlike the legislation in other states, the Texas bill didn’t explicitly excuse drivers if they caused “willful or wanton” injury.

STATUS: The bill was referred to the House Judiciary and Civil Jurisprudence Committee in July but didn’t progress further during the special session, which ended Tuesday.
