Glenn Reynolds is a columnist for USA Today who apparently thinks black protesters are like zombies, and white people should get in their cars and run them over. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. http://tytnetwork.com/join
“Glenn Reynolds, a USA Today columnist and University of Tennessee law professor who goes by the name Instapundit, said on Thursday morning that he will not apologize for a tweet urging drivers to run over protesters in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Reynolds told radio host Hugh Hewitt that he would “probably not” tweet the message if given another chance, but he was unapologetic.
“I have to say I don’t apologize for the sentiment,” he said. “I think that this tactic of blocking people on the interstate and surrounding cars is itself violent. It is threatening. It is not peaceful protest, and it should not be permitted.”
Reynolds on Wednesday night linked to a story about protesters stopping traffic on an interstate highway with the phrase “Run them down.”
He said Thursday that he expressed his concern about protesters blocking traffic “perhaps a little too pithily.””*
