"Authorities say the footage captures Field's Challenger stopping about a block and a half away from protesters, reversing, then driving into the crow and speeding away in reverse."

Remember we had Trumpicantards or nazi sympthesizers claiming Fields was just musing his own business and was spooked that he was being attacked which caused him to crash accidentally into the crowd.

There is clear evidence of antifas attacking his car. Whether this happened before or after the sjw died, i cannot say.

that guy swinging at bumper seems to be around the 10 sec mark of this video... and the car already moving fairly quick w/ no indication of slowing with impact just about 2 secs after

so that particular attack certainly doesn't seem related, & there's not many people around the car early in that video when car already moving fast

"moving fairly quick"

Moving slow enough for a pedestrian to hit the car in the bumper in the same direction as the car. Looks like car slowed down in the intersection. lawl

"The video shows counterprotesters gathered at Fourth and Water streets in downtown Charlottesville. A black pickup truck approaching the crowd pulled to the side of the road. A maroon van then stopped on the street in front of the crowd, and a Toyota Camry stopped behind the van. Fields’s Dodge approached the Camry from behind at a moderate speed. It then backed up, traveling more than a block, before accelerating forward at a rapid clip, ramming into the back of the Camry. Heyer and numerous other people were standing near the vehicles, and the collision sent bodies flying."

perception/reaction time is usually estimated around 1.5 secs

there's not enough time for him to notice that bumper hit and then accelerate to the speed of impact unless he was already going too fast

...not that I see any sign of him slowing down to begin with

I mean, let's see it. I've left open the possibility that Fields is a premeditated murderer.

"Yeah, cause that's difficult."

Yes, striking a speeding car with a baseball bat in the same direction as the car's travel is easy. Please demonstrate with a video on the highway.

You are aware that was testimony given according to the article right, which caused the judge to make the decision to upgrade right, Then it is considered evidence right and will be used I court right? Maybe you should take a trip when the trial begins, yeah?

"Yes, striking a speeding car with a baseball bat in the same direction as the car's travel is easy. Please demonstrate with a video on the highway. "

Are you playing the game of just because it can't happen unless forwyn sees a video of said possibility?

LOL! So your equivalent trick would be to strike a passing car in the front bumper, you fucking idiot.

"Yes, striking a speeding car with a baseball bat in the same direction as the car's travel is easy"

I mean, do you understand even the most basic of physics? The car looked to be going maybe 20 mph? Baseball players swing their bats at about 70-80. It isn't unreasonable to think the average person can get a swing up to 40-50 mph. It becomes pretty trivial to catch the tail of a car when you can get an extremely quick rotational velocity at the end of said bat.

"Please demonstrate with a video on the highway."

Never go full retard.

76.6 MPH - average speed of a bat swing

plus who says he was aiming for the bumper

That's my point...

"76.6 MPH - average speed of a bat swing"

Average fast ball is 92, yet the average person doesn't come close to 70.

you can visibly see the kid swinging the bat... it's fast... and he barely catches the car... and you can see how close the car has gotten to the crowd in your own photo with no brake lights the entire unsafe drive toward them

Stellar observation. Perhaps the point is that a skinny Antifa isn't swinging at MLB speeds, just as they're not throwing at MLB speeds.

car is probably going somewhere in the 20 to 30mph the entire time, start to final impact

let's all go out onto our local side streets and swing at cars and compare results

"Okay? You point? "

My point is that you demanding of seeing a video that was portrayed in a court proceeding to decide if the charge should be upgraded is stupid.

Because forwyn doesn't believe anything unless he sees it himself. AND if he did so would still declare something differently even if it is staring you in your face.

tldr version.

You're fucking moron.

Straw man.

"Because forwyn doesn't believe anything unless he sees it himself. AND if he did so would still declare something differently even if it is staring you in your face."

Straw man.

Here's me:

There's still cause for reasonable doubt. I acknowledge that the judge was convinced that this justified an upgrade. Regardless, his car was struck before he hit the crowd, and he never seemed to be going very fast in the relevant video.

However, this could be a clear-cut case of a premeditated murder.

Here's you:

Not good enough forseb! HURRRRRR! You need to pass judgement now! HURRRRRR fucking moron!

I'll jump in; What is "never seemed to going fast." What mph are you suggesting?

No x2.

"There's still cause for reasonable doubt. I acknowledge that the judge was convinced that this justified an upgrade. Regardless, his car was struck before he hit the crowd, and he never seemed to be going very fast in the relevant video. "

Are you suggesting that a car going 10mph, 15 mph, 20mph isn't very fast or enough to warrant such destruction? The car is struck, what exactly is your point, are you staying it was the person with the stick that caused the guy to panic and keep moving forward. Did you not read the article where it was said that the action of the driver showed him purposely heading towards that direction. And you think automatically a person with a stick prompted him to run into a crowd as well as causing a chain reaction with 2-3 other vehicles?

"Not good enough forseb! HURRRRRR! You need to pass judgement now! HURRRRRR fucking moron! "

No you moron, that is precisely what you are doing is passing judgement now, yet at the same time failing a deductive reasoning poorly. The same thing you did in the last thread regarding this particular topic. Where you made the declaration "It was the person who hit the car that made him crash into people" -fordumb.

"Average fast ball is 92, yet the average person doesn't come close to 70."

That's why I suggested about 40/50 mph. You really must not understand basic physics though. It's way, way easier to get something spinning in a circle really quickly vs. accelerating something for straight line speed.

"his car was struck before he hit the crowd"

His car was already going at the crowd at fairly unreasonable velocity.

I think it was concluded by every other poster that he was going at an unsafe rate of speed for the area and I think it can be definitively proven this was intentional.
