11th is a one-way two-lane street there.  It has been for decades.

 He was legally driving in the correct direction and in a single lane when your friends in their "hate and filth" confronted him and pushed his vehicle backwards.  

That was prior to him getting out of his vehicle and before his tire was ice-picked. 

There is absolutely no justification for your friends' actions.

This wasn't Gandhi; this was Watts without the racism on both sides.  The anti-Trumps were the slime in this vignette.
