the problem is Mieses may not have been part of the problem.
his wife claims mieses was trying to calm the crowd down.
As i see it, this was a garden variety traffic accident.
then it got a little tense, then lien drove through the crowd.
the mieses guy got run overthen it just got stupid.
If mieses was threatening lien, lien needed to be in “Reasonable fear of bodily harm” the problem is lien was inside a range rover, that was perfectly sound.
none of these chuckleheads had broken a window, none of them blown a tire,
sure the crowf was pissed. if you drive badly and run over a pedestrian the bystanders will get pissed too.if you then drive through the crowd of angry pedestrians, because one slapped his hand on the trunk, well, that’s aggravated assault.
Lien needed to stay where he was, chill out, call 911.
now he’s facing a couple of million in lawsuits, he’s facing
a long messy, career destroying swarm of publicity.i’m not going to join either side, the cops have arrested the guys who kicked his ass, and the lawyers are suing lien.
i’ll let the system work

patbParticipantIf Interest rates rise, a lot of people will lose their butts.
patbParticipantits just another bubble.
The banks want to clean up their balance sheets then the Fed will raise rates.
patbParticipantIf you go to one of the long stay parking lots at the airport, and slip the valet $100 you can get a car for 2 weeks.
patbParticipantIf the guy is broke after 8 years in office, it means he wasn’t on the take.
patbParticipantgive me another 18 months, and i’d sell this SOB if i could get peak price.
