Lol of course it was one of the parents-for-fascism protestors who want to strip books and curriculum from schools because it doesn't align with their personal puritan beliefs.

Why didn't they just comply instead of ruining their expensive tractor?

I wonder how it flipped over, those things look very stable

There's a video in the article, pretty badass, lol.

Pretty stupid, I bet he didn't think his protest would end up costing him $100,000+

That tractor's toast.

And I sort of doubt he had comprehensive road insurance that would cover attempted highway driving

High center of mass and turning at higher speed with a copcar under your wheel. Even an SUV will flip with audden direction change and a slight bump.

I'm still trying to figure out where they think they could get away to? It's not like driving across a farmer's field isn't going to be tracked by traffic or news choppers.
