So, at what point does it become morally right to run over protesters en masse regardless of if they're taken part in any destructive behavior?

I absolutely don't condone this behavior, but I seem to recall a lot of people on here saying the running over protesters that are disrupting traffic is justified. Hell, the Republican state governments of Oklahoma, Iowa, and Florida have even passed laws that seek to protect drivers that run over protesters.
So the persecution complex seems a bit fake when so many on the Right were celebrating the kinds of actions when the positions were reversed.

I'm seeing a lot of people celebrating in this thread:
Watch: Tacoma Police Department Run Over Protesters
police said “some comments made by the accused that tends to suggest this was not specifically about the [vaccine] mandates,” adding that Zegarac “wasn't for or against any of the general views that are floating around this country.”
A post on a local Winnipeg punk Facebook group disavowed Zegarac, describing how he “is despised by every group or organization he's ever claimed to represent,”
The anonymous post also referred to allegations levied against Zegarac that claimed he acted inappropriately with underage females in the punk rock scene.
“I have no love for the convoy group at all and hate to see what's happening in Canada right now but NONE of them deserve to be hit with a vehicle,”

Try to avoid those areas, If you're one of the unlucky driver that comes up on a road that protester are occupying..
When the crowd refuses to let you by safely. Why should a family be put through that. Kids in a car while peaceful protesters kick, punch and throw projectiles at your car.
I'm getting those I care about out of there as safely as possible. If that means I have to knock a few people over... so be it.
Edit: it's in the thread you linked.
