I am inclined to agree with you on this.
We already have a large body of law that takes into account the degree of intentionality on a scale ranging from “unforseeable accident” through “depraved indifference” and onto “deliberate and pre-meditated.”
But this makes it all the more puzzling that some state legislatures feel compelled to add to the mix by specifically immunizing from civil damages in the particular case that the injured party is taking part in a protest and the party who caused harm was operating a motor vehicle.
It almost as if they have an agenda…
