that was spooked because the counter protesters threw rocks at him.
Does anyone know who the driver was?

Good delete though. I do try not to jump the gun but get caught sometimes.

(51,593 posts)Really, I would like to know what does testosterone do, especially when it is when mixed with hate and/or alcohol?
