Tesla is attacked by teen mob in Chicago
One suspects they’d have attacked it even were it a Chevette, though.
[NYPOST] Startling video has captured a group of teens kicking and punching out the windows of a Tesla as it tried to escape an out-of-control street takeover in reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel...
over the weekend.

Footage posted to Twitter showed a group of young men sitting on top of the vehicle and posing as they took photos on their cellphones Friday, prompting the driver to honk and inch forward in an apparent attempt to get the men off his car.

The group then starts banging on the hood of the white sedan, when a man cries out, "Oh s—t."

At that point, the men start to put ski masks over their faces.

The footage then cuts to show two other vehicles doing donuts around each other on the other side of the road, as nearly 100 teenagers look on.

With the mob distracted, the Tesla driver tries to ram through the crowd, apparently hitting one person, who can be seen rolling on the ground as the car passes by.

From my pitiful understanding of US military doctrine, the proper when response when caught in an ambush is to assault thru the ambush rather than sitting there in the kill zone getting pounded.
Charge lasers to 110%. All ahead flank.
