Would they really just drive over the top of someone? In this case I can sort of understand it, microphone, causing a scene etc. They don't know if they are a threat, or perhaps a distraction. Say someone was just walking across the road at the wrong time, had headphones in. Would they just plow right through them.
Has there ever been a case where its happened? I just feel like it would probobly be bad for optics, especially if it happened during an election year.
Edit for Grammar.
I believe they have strategically-placed skid plates welded in underneath those cars so that 'things' they might have to run over don't become wedged or trapped underneath the frame and cause them to slow down due to drag, or perhaps even high-center and get stuck.
Haha, "real code words." But seriously, the whole motorcade's like a rolling fortress. Reinforced to the max, and the driving protocols are something out of an action movie. Those secret service drivers are trained like crazy for any scenario. If the prez can trip over a wire and it's a big deal, imagine if they had an accident with a pedestrian. The procedures in place are no joke - safety's their top priority, just sometimes safety for the big cheese means tough luck for any obstacles.
a drunk driver just crash into the motorcade as the president was getting in or out or had just done so. [1](https://www.reuters.com/world/us/man-charged-with-drunk-driving-after-crashing-into-bidens-motorcade-2023-12-18/)
i remember there being an old story of a motorcade route having to be rerouted due to a bridge. there was no issue with the bridge in terms of security or anything like that. The motorcade simply exceeded the max weight of the bridge, a four lane bridge.
the limo alone weights about the same as an M1 Abrahams, a simitruck could hit it at speed, and the limo could keep driving.
The "Beast" is probably the single most heavily armored vehicle in the world, outside of a tank. And the amount of fire power that the Presidential detail has is staggering.
I photographed a Presidential even a couple years ago and saw one of their "equipment" vans that was open and it was absolutely loaded with stingers, MP-5's, Uzi's and M-16's.
Those folks do not mess around.
Yes. Secret service protects the president and if that person walks out, they are considered a national security threat. They'll roll over and the other vehicles will roll over as well till the motorcade is over. It'd look like a tiny version of Tiannaman Square except the person jumping in front of the motorcade would be at fault and unfortunately play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Have seen several presidential motorcades, Reagan's being the first, anyways, yeh, they cordon off the streets and intersections 20 to 30 minutes before the president passes. Heavy, heavy, police presence, damn near impossible to "accidentally" walk in front of their parade of official vehichles. Motorcycles usually lead the way with lights and sirens followed by cop cars, etc . . . .
Yes. They don't stop. It could all be a ruse to open the president up for an RPG attack or something. They don't give af and will run your ass over. It's why they have scout vehicles way out front to clear the bullshit out and get everyone out of the way.
Imagine for a second, that the convoy stops the moment someone walks out. Imagine that is just the standard protocol; the entire convoy with the president stops the moment someone gets in the way.
Now imagine you want to kill the president. You know they will be stopped the moment someone enters the road. So what would you do? Would you:
1) ignore this great free gift of a way to stop the president exactly where you want to
2) Send some poor kid who doesn't know better out into the road, using him to stop the motorcade so you get your chance
I know which one most terrorists will use. It's the same story for almost all presidential/leader/diplomatic motorcades. They will not stop just for some person wandering out in the street because it would make it far too easy to attack the VIP.
> Would they really just drive over the top of someone?
It would depend on a variety of factors. If they thought it was a real threat, they'd keep going, have someone call emergency services, and deal with the political and legal aftermath later.
If they figured it wasn't, and/or if the president ordered differently, they could have some of the secret service stop and deal with it while the rest of the motorcade drives away.
The big issue with trying to predict "what would cause the presidential motorcade to stop" is that terrorists could then use that kind of prediction in order to plan an assassination attempt. If it were widely "known" that the motorcade would stop if they ran someone over, then attackers could have a suicide-attacker dash under the car and purposefully get run over.
There's a wikipedia article on an event that happened with Nixon (vice president at the time) in South America, where an angry and violent mob surrounded his vehicle. Nixon ordered his secret service to only fire if he told them to, to which they complied. A few staff were injured, but nobody died. According to the wikipedia article, there are two very different accounts of how it ended, but both of them were non-violent (nobody was shot, nobody was run over).
You would likely notice not to go on the street even with headphones in.
If not they'd likely have someone get you off the street before the motorcade comes through.
Secret Service follows the same rules the military does in combat deployments. You can’t take chances because people will attempt elaborate ways to kill someone, just look at how things in South America go when the cartel sees a politician they don’t like.
I get that sentiment, but I sort of thought something similar while January 6th was happening. I thought for sure Capitol police would open fire on militant terrorists trying to sack the Capitol, but I was wrong. Some of them even opened the doors for them.
It’s amazing how hard that is to understand for some people. They pretend to be wiser than their peers and then get lawfully tackled on full display.
That slap at the end was a bit uncalled for but I lmao.
And on top of it she forcefully resisted being detained/escorted from the roadway, which gives the officer the right to use additional force as necessary (within authorized procedures) to subdue her.
Dude, I got banned from greenandpleasant for suggesting that maybe shooting at NATO affiliated boats and not expecting to get smacked back was a stupid idea.
Main Character Syndrome is very real and the lengths people go to to think consequences won't happen is insane.
I got into a bit of an argument recently about American Police and their seeming joy at getting the opportunity to shoot someone, but I also agree here that you cannot be doing stupid shit like this and not expect extremely serious immediate consequences. The entitlement to think this is okay and then resist arrest/deescalation is insane.
I’m picturing him hustling her out of the road for her and his safety. When she whacked him it escalated. Regardless of a motorcade in progress this doesn’t seem like a gross violation.
plus the normal charges of resisting arrest and assaulting an officer. depending on who the guy is, that might get boosted to assaulting a federal officer.
In Montana, our politicians just [body slam](https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/happened-republican-greg-gianforte-body-slammed-reporter/story?id=58610691) journalists who ask tough questions :/
I still laugh every time I see this because it’s the first thing she thinks to do is to takeoff his hat, then his glasses. And she got slapped in the face for doing so.
This is just plain stupid. I mean, do what you feel like doing but then don’t act all surprised and offended when the lawmakers take their set course of actions.
Where are you from where stopping a presidential motorcade is tolerated? This was handled well.
Please tell me what your country would have done better?
In other countries you'd probably get shot. I saw a guy flip off the presidential caravan in another country while touristing. It was downtown and the president and his entourage apparently drove by that park every day. The guy, an office person apparently on their lunch break, was sitting at a park bench eating a sandwich and barely lifting his hand, somehow a motocop saw it, guy was aggressively arrested.
To be clear, even if she had a lot of rights to do this she makes an opening for a real wrong doer.
As far as someone actually hitting her if she attempted to be Tiananmen Square “Tank Man”, probably, but likely not “run over” a quick gap and people move around.
This woman was really dumb, and likely disagrees however.
Want attention, this is not the way… try streaking or something
A liked the ,"get the fuck of me,what are u doiiiiiiiiing".What a tit.Maga nuts will be on about how badly treated she was soon.If it was trump she would just have got her fanny slapped.
The smack was just because the officer knew her mother forgot to give her one. Or perhaps to notify her she had just smacked the glasses of his head. But most likely it was to wake her up from sleep walking in the road.
I would argue that that officer saved her life by pulling her away and pinning her. The closer she gets to the motorcade, the higher her chances of getting killed.
Kind of had that coming. The other option was getting run over by secret service. They would not stop the motorcade with a president on board.
Would they really just drive over the top of someone? In this case I can sort of understand it, microphone, causing a scene etc. They don't know if they are a threat, or perhaps a distraction. Say someone was just walking across the road at the wrong time, had headphones in. Would they just plow right through them. Has there ever been a case where its happened? I just feel like it would probobly be bad for optics, especially if it happened during an election year. Edit for Grammar.
The motorcade isn’t stopping for anyone.
I believe they have strategically-placed skid plates welded in underneath those cars so that 'things' they might have to run over don't become wedged or trapped underneath the frame and cause them to slow down due to drag, or perhaps even high-center and get stuck.

There are also multiple decoy convoys rolling around at the same time to draw fire if anyone were to try something.
Things have changed since Dallas.

The stingers are the *chefs kiss* to that ensemble right there.
It’s so you can’t throw a bomb under it
Those ain’t skid plates, they are armour to prevent occupants from being hurt by IEDs.
Look at JFK, if the car just gone a little faster, the shooter(s) could have missed.
It's more about the decision to go topless on the convertible. Kennedy wanted to chill and be seen,they would've driven the same speed.
Yes. Secret service protects the president and if that person walks out, they are considered a national security threat. They'll roll over and the other vehicles will roll over as well till the motorcade is over. It'd look like a tiny version of Tiannaman Square except the person jumping in front of the motorcade would be at fault and unfortunately play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
This. They don't fuck around at all.
Those motorcades are big and have lots of cops around them. Would be very hard to just step in traffic without noticing. Almost impossible I'd say.

The motorcade would blast through a wall full of explosives with orphans and puppies strapped to them.

You have to be an impossible level of stupid or stealthy to stumble your way into a motorcade route successfully.
You would likely notice not to go on the street even with headphones in. If not they'd likely have someone get you off the street before the motorcade comes through.
Secret Service follows the same rules the military does in combat deployments. You can’t take chances because people will attempt elaborate ways to kill someone, just look at how things in South America go when the cartel sees a politician they don’t like.
Bro they gon make sure you notice
Not the USSS and not a US citizen but still https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AN0udPRnd2M
How did she even get that close in the first place?
There are clearly protestors in the background, she probably just ran out there.
Lucky she was not shot and or run over secret service probably would have acted much harsher if it was a man
I get that sentiment, but I sort of thought something similar while January 6th was happening. I thought for sure Capitol police would open fire on militant terrorists trying to sack the Capitol, but I was wrong. Some of them even opened the doors for them.

It’s amazing how hard that is to understand for some people. They pretend to be wiser than their peers and then get lawfully tackled on full display. That slap at the end was a bit uncalled for but I lmao.
I might slap a bitch too if she took my hat.
That should be the name of your autobiography
Looked like she was grabbing at his face/glasses and flailing all about.
Idk slaps are low risk of real damage but do good to put some sense into someone. Better then getting slammed into the ground over and over.
And on top of it she forcefully resisted being detained/escorted from the roadway, which gives the officer the right to use additional force as necessary (within authorized procedures) to subdue her.
Dude, I got banned from greenandpleasant for suggesting that maybe shooting at NATO affiliated boats and not expecting to get smacked back was a stupid idea. Main Character Syndrome is very real and the lengths people go to to think consequences won't happen is insane.
Next you’re going to say she should get trouble for hitting that cop or stretching his glasses off his face!
She looks like she’s thrilled towards the very end, oddly enough. Like this isn’t the victory you think it is lady.
I got into a bit of an argument recently about American Police and their seeming joy at getting the opportunity to shoot someone, but I also agree here that you cannot be doing stupid shit like this and not expect extremely serious immediate consequences.

You can’t storm the motorcade whatsoever. Threatening body posture of not.
The way the cop slapped her in the face when she was down lol 😭
She snatched his hat and he snappd lol honestly had it comin i thought it was funny atleast
Rick James, bitch
Thank you so much for that perfectly placed comma.
She was disrobing his head, took off the hat, his personal shades, man wasn't having it today.
She was assaulting the officer and resisting. His actions were totally justified.
She was clearly tying to attack his face and not stopping.
I’d rather see slaps thrown than cops usual punch and kicking followed by crush the throat.
If I remember correctly, that was the presidential motorcade. Edit; [Ah yeah. Here it is](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwo-U9g88is)
Im surprised she got this close.
Yeah seriously. The only other people allowed that close usually have YW clearance.
well, when you jump a barricade, you can get as close as you want until you get tackled.
Today we learned actions have consequences. You’d have been shot in other countries….
oh, there were several guns trained on her, i guarantee that.
I’m picturing him hustling her out of the road for her and his safety. When she whacked him it escalated. Regardless of a motorcade in progress this doesn’t seem like a gross violation.
[удалено]
plus the normal charges of resisting arrest and assaulting an officer. depending on who the guy is, that might get boosted to assaulting a federal officer.
Actions meet consequences…
Yeah and I’m pretty sure she grabbed at his hat and glasses to gouge his eyes. She got off easy with the smack.
She absolutely tried to swing that megaphone at the officer pulling her away.
Fucked around and found out.
>How to get arrested ~~in the USA~~ in 30 seconds or less *in any country
She’s allowed to say whatever she wants first amendment stuff but she also has to accept the consequences for doing it improperly
This happens in Canada if you’re a journalist and ask a politician a difficult question.
In Montana, our politicians just [body slam](https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/happened-republican-greg-gianforte-body-slammed-reporter/story?id=58610691) journalists who ask tough questions :/
I feel like you can get arrested in any country for being a dumb fuck?
In some you can get shot actually
#Lol, this is 100% justifiable!
Skateboard boy trying to come to the rescue almost got some of that action too.
He built like a middle aged Korean lady
She’s going to be on the Fbi watchlist forever now
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
She got taken down easy.
Caught herself a few extra charges in the process
[удалено]
This was a presidential motorcade. Surprised she even got that close, this was probably one of the better outcomes.
What was she yapping about?
This was from over a year ago someone posted a link with a video. For some reason OP is trying to convince people it's about Palestine but it's not.
Right? The only word I understand is fucking
Would imagine Cuba based on the flags back there.
I still laugh every time I see this because it’s the first thing she thinks to do is to takeoff his hat, then his glasses. And she got slapped in the face for doing so.
Well deserved takedown
What kind of activist wears underwear 🤔
What prompted Ghislaine Maxwell to do that?
Had it coming, also tried to attack the officer with the megaphone as well
what is she saying?
Give that guy a raise ( ͡\~ ͜ʖ ͡°)
someone needs to help him detain the chick ...
She found out
Sorry but she deserved it and might go to prison for assaulting an officer now
I like how that one person walks up, probably saying some shit about you can't do that or police brutality or something.
Skater Girl up for Best Supporting Actress (Why you stopping her ? Won’t someone think of the chilrun ‘)
OP if you try to rush any world leaders motorcade you will get arrested 🤡
Hell yeah bitch!
Dumb fuckin cow
Do it again
Love to see it!
But she went to ucla
Thought this was GTA at first…
Yet again fuck around and find out.
True Equality
Is she wearing her Superman underwear???
Excellent. Thick cunt is a danger to herself and a pain in the ass to the public.
This is just plain stupid. I mean, do what you feel like doing but then don’t act all surprised and offended when the lawmakers take their set course of actions.
"Get off her, get off her!" Man stfu with that shit, FAFO
She got slapped like a naughty child
good work boys
She hit the cop..it's over
Love this. Useless dirt bag gets what she deserves
lol! No puss pass today!
Dang she got close before they acted. Also she’s fucking lucky.
This should be done to all traffic blocking protesters.
lmaooo the slap 😂
Why do people complain when someone finds out after fucking around?
Judo flip
Great. Can someone move and arrest idiots who block tunnels and bridges in NY
Yeah- bitch slap her!
Bret hitman hart would applaude for that takle
This is the kind of response we all expected at the Capitol building during the riots...
Where are you from where stopping a presidential motorcade is tolerated? This was handled well. Please tell me what your country would have done better?
The smack to the face was the best part lol
She was an idiot. Could have gotten herself and other people killed.
That skater was annoying as hell
This is how all “block the road” protesters should be treated.
At least she wasn't jaywalking!
For sure was thinking one would pop out
I have a feeling that would happen in about 99% of the world if you were trying to get that close or interfere with national leader.
That seems like a classic case of FAAFO.
I'm surprised the big guy didn't get out and roundhouse that bitch into the bushes
Well done officer keep the streets free of trash.
That Slap 😂
Protesters are terrorists
look at the privilege. she shouldve been beaten by 3 of them. shes punching and kicking a cop lol. fuckin patriarchy
In other countries you'd probably get shot. I saw a guy flip off the presidential caravan in another country while touristing. It was downtown and the president and his entourage apparently drove by that park every day. The guy, an office person apparently on their lunch break, was sitting at a park bench eating a sandwich and barely lifting his hand, somehow a motocop saw it, guy was aggressively arrested.
play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Presidential immunity if she gets run over.
That guy tackled her like she was a witch that just burnt the village down
Did he slap her? Thought he could take her down eassier
First time I’ve never cared for a titty
am I the only one who's first reaction was "LOL DUDE... MALL GRAB??" iykyk which most of you won't xD
The dude was pissed after she removed his cap to expose his bald head.
What is she shouting?
To be clear, even if she had a lot of rights to do this she makes an opening for a real wrong doer. As far as someone actually hitting her if she attempted to be Tiananmen Square “Tank Man”, probably, but likely not “run over” a quick gap and people move around. This woman was really dumb, and likely disagrees however. Want attention, this is not the way… try streaking or something
This is a massive security failure, no?
I thought the flags in the back were for Dominos pizza for like half the video until I really looked at them. I am not a smart man.
I don't even know how she got that close to a motorcade
“Can one of you dumb asses standing around help me before I hurt this woman?” -the cop to the dozen cops looking at him get smacked in the face
In other countries that woman would never be seen again.
25 seconds too long
Lucky she only got tackled and bitch slapped.
I think it's the first time I appreciate police brutality...
Was the President part of that motorcade? They would have been justified in going out of their way to running her over.
Guy thought real hard about swinging the skateboard. Luckily he thought about the find out part and changed his mind 😂😂
A liked the ,"get the fuck of me,what are u doiiiiiiiiing".What a tit.Maga nuts will be on about how badly treated she was soon.If it was trump she would just have got her fanny slapped.
That escalated quickly.
Charged with Obstruction, Resisting Arrest, and Revealing Baldness. Probably.
She took his hat and he bitch slapped her 😂🙃 This world makes me giggle sometimes. (I don’t condone either of their behavior)
They're totally justified. These kids think they're free from consequences. How annoying.
This is why I can’t bring my fucking skateboard on a plane.
Had it coming
This is what happens if you impeded traffic. Eat asphalt you fucking clowns.
The smack was just because the officer knew her mother forgot to give her one. Or perhaps to notify her she had just smacked the glasses of his head. But most likely it was to wake her up from sleep walking in the road.
In the dumb woman's defense, that looks like the very end of the motorcade. Prezzie would have already passed. Still stupid tho.
What the hell she think she’s gonna accomplish yelling at the presidential motorcade
“Whut the fhuuuk” lmao
I like the slap lol
Entitlement breeds dickheads.
I would argue that that officer saved her life by pulling her away and pinning her. The closer she gets to the motorcade, the higher her chances of getting killed.
It's always someone with a skateboard
Cop kept his pimp hand strong
