There’s anarchy in the streets over the Confederate flag.
A new video has emerged showing a shirtless man — described as Hispanic in the description — ripping two Confederate flags off the back of a pickup truck while it is stopped at a red light.
After ripping two of the truck’s three flags down and throwing them in the street, he appears to cross the double-yellow line, causing an on-coming car to brake.
The person shooting the video can be heard laughing.
The man then walks past the driver’s side, in front of the truck and raises his hands in the air.
The driver doesn’t appear to react, either unaware of what just happened, or not wanting to confront the shirtless person who just risked his life to tear down two pieces of cloth.
A similar incident occurred in July when a man ran behind a moving semi truck on the highway to try to peel a Confederate emblem of its tailgate.
The Grio, a black news website, grabbed the video from Twitter and posted it, adding James Brown’s “The Payback.”
The video shows the unidentified man trotting behind the truck, struggling to remove the flag. After several moments, he rips it off and gets out of the road.
