Police said they arrested a man who drove his SUV through a “No Kings” protest Saturday, hitting at least one person.

The Culpeper Police Department (CPD) said officers stopped Joseph R. Checklick Jr, 21, of Culpeper after they saw him drive recklessly through the group in the area of 801 James Madison Hwy.

Not that I agree, but the logic is that the name is deceptive and they're just against Trump I assume. Just like a "protect the children" act has nothing to do with protecting children. Names aren't necessarily accurate.

The name isn't deceptive. It is deliberate.

Yes, it is against Trump, but the reason is because Trump is behaving like a modern day, wannabe King/dictator.

I know. I'm just saying the name being deliberate doesn't mean it's accurate. In this case I would say it is, but "the patriot act" is also deliberately chosen, but it's deceptive.
