He escalated by getting out of his car? I agree that was stupid, he should have kept moving and not stopped for lights or stop signs, but it's pretty crazy some cities are at the point where getting out of your vehicle is considered "escalating" and leads to your car being destroyed and being viciously beaten by a group of 40 children.

correct. assuming malice from the kids, Mr Uulu got out of the car to confront literal children. this is escalating a trivial incident to a confrontation. over a plastic bottle hitting his car.

I'm just saying it's a sad world when you think the abnormal behavior here is someone getting of their car.

I think it is unhinged that we allow people to drive tank sized SUVs and pickups in the first place so I don't fault the teens for hating cars.

What a colossally dumb take. I'm sure this was totally an anti-car protest gone wrong. 🙄 Putting aside the fact that his car was literally a small sedan, which looks like a Toyota, I would pay good money to watch you go create "solidarity" against cars with this group of kids.

Then there'd be two idiots recovering from a severe beating.

I would concede that my comment was a tangent, but cars are destroying the planet and could potentially cause the extinction of our species, and yet you think hating excessively oversized cars makes me the dumb one? Interesting.
