All you have to say is "Catalonia" people demanded independency, they've pretty much asked for it for centuries now, dating all the way back to mid 19th century, they've protested constantly, then the heads of Catalonia decided to put the polls and the result said they wanted to split, Spain just said no, jailed the heads and batoned the fuck out of the opossition. did the EU condemn this behaviour? not at all, no one gave a shit.

Could someone get in trouble for doing it? If they honestly didn't know people were there, lying on the ground, would it constitute as vehicular manslaughter?

BLM doesn't give a fuck about black history or give those that helped them any respect.
"Exactly 123 years to the day that it was dedicated, the Shaw Memorial, a monument honoring the first all-volunteer black regiment of the Union Army in the Civil War, was defaced by rioters demanding justice for African-Americans.

On May 31, 1897, the monument was erected on Boston Commons to honor the 54th Massachusetts Regiment of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, who bravely attacked Confederate forces at Fort Wagner.

One of the soldiers, Sgt. William Harvey Carney carried the American flag throughout the battle, never dropping it despite being shot 7 times. Carney was the first black American to win the Congressional Medal of Honor for action."

Sgt Carney didn't win the Congressional Medal of Honor, he earned it.

o7 Sgt Carney.

Well don't worry, there's no erasure of history here, the iconoclasts have assured us that we still know who Saddam and Hitler are despite their statues being torn down. And what Saddam did in the Gulf is small potatoes compared to what these men did.

Meanwhile neighbors cowered in their own homes, unable to sleep. One resident, a man called Mitchell Erickson, found himself cornered by two thugs who put a gun into his stomach and demanded his car keys. So Erickson finally broke down, he called police. And then he deeply regretted it. "I put those boys in danger by calling the cops," Erickson told the paper -- apparently not joking!

The full NYT article is here. It's pretty hilarious, here's a choice section:
Mitchell Erickson’s fingers began dialing 911 last week before he had a chance to even consider alternatives, when two black teenagers who looked to be 15, at most, cornered him outside his home a block away from the park.

One of the boys pointed a gun at Mr. Erickson’s chest, demanding his car keys.

Flustered, Mr. Erickson handed over a set, but it turned out to be house keys. The teenagers got frustrated and ran off, then stole a different car down the street.

Mr. Erickson said later that he would not cooperate with prosecutors in a case against the boys. After the altercation, he realized that if there was anything he wanted, it was to offer them help. But he still felt it had been right to call the authorities because there was a gun involved.

Two days after an initial conversation, his position had evolved. “Been thinking more about it,” he wrote in a text message. “I regret calling the police. It was my instinct but I wish it hadn’t been. I put those boys in danger of death by calling the cops.”

What about the fact that the boys had put his life in danger?

“Yeah I know and yeah it was scary but the cops didn’t really have much to add after I called them,” he replied. “I haven’t been forced to think like this before. So I would have lost my car. So what? At least no one would have been killed.”

It's like this guy has negative survival instinct or something.
