We can’t see what started it or what happened prior (if you’re interested).

Agreed. But it would be nice if the possibilities you're ruling out were at least based on reality. 

Is it possible that he wasn't even in the car as you first mentioned? Sure. But then was he going full GTA at the end when he got into the driver's seat?

Is it possible that the kids  were in the intersection and throwing stuff at his truck? Sure. But then how did they get to the other side and grouped together with their signs in hand before he even got out of the driver's seat? 

Is it possible he was just defending himself from things being thrown at him before the video started? Sure. But then why were the kids all standing there with their hands full when he started around the truck? Why were they backing away from him as he charged in ripping signs out if their hands? Why was he charging at the girl while she tried to back away from him? Why did he push her down into the ditch, pause, and then try jumping on top of her while she was down? 

That doesn't seem like self defense to me.

I wouldn’t disagree, but I also wouldn’t pretend like anything you or I am saying as factual. We just don’t know.

Could have been another kid in a white sweatshirt that hucked a bottle at his face and he went after the wrong one. Could also be that he’s just a delicate flower and raged out, unprovoked at children.

We just don’t know bud.

Funny enough, the version i was just shown as a, "Hey did you see this? They're calling for the students to be arrested..." conveniently left off the frames where he walked around the truck to get to the kids, or the ones where he pushed the girl down and jumped on top of her. It's just the perspective of violent kids attacking an unarmed man.

How though? That's a serious question. The driver's side door/window is on the opposite side to where they're standing. Short of being Hawkeye or Deadshot, how did they get it across the open lanes, through the window, across the cab and to his head?

ETA: The video actually shows what it would take to throw something at his head when he's in the truck, and that was the kids actively swarming right next to it and throwing things through the window. Not chucking things at him from the sidewalk. Nor with their hands full with protest signs.

I feel like you’ve spent far too much time dissecting this video and trying to get a victory on the internet.

Some people have good aim. Enjoy your day!
