Watch this mostly peaceful BLM leader plow her car through a crowd of Trump supporters
· Sep 28, 2020 · NottheBee.com

A BLM organizer was arrested Saturday after plowing her car into a large crowd of Trump supporters in Orange County, California.

The driver, Tatiana Turner, is the founder of a group called Caravan 4 Justice, a BLM-affiliated organization. On Saturday, Caravan 4 Justice held a "March 4 Equality" event in Yorba Linda, which was supposed to be a "peaceful protest" against "police brutality, social injustice, and systemic racism." A group of conservative counter-protesters also showed up, with around 250 people total gathering near the public library. Authorities asked the two groups to maintain their distance, but tensions reportedly escalated after the conservative group crossed the road and a Caravan 4 Justice protester responded with pepper spray.

After the police told demonstrators to disperse, Turner decided to take things to the next level of peace by running her white Nissan Versa through the pro-Trump crowd.

The crowd chased the car down and hailed the police, who arrested Turner for attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon. Two people were seriously hurt and taken to the hospital.

One of the other event organizers came to Turner's defense, telling The Associated Press that her windshield had been broken and that she feared for her life. There are two problems with this. First, you can clearly see her windshield wasn't broken before yeeting through a bunch of people at lightspeed. Second, according to Orange County Sheriff's Sgt. Dennis Breckner, she purposely drove through the crowd.

"When she left that parking lot, she could have chosen an alternate route that would have completely avoided all those people," said Sgt. Breckner. "She chose that route. It wasn't like that was her only avenue of escape, and she didn't have to leave at that moment; she could have just stayed in her car. From what we can tell, there seemed to be no issues when she was getting into her car."

Here's the full incident from another angle. Another successful "mostly-peaceful" protest!
