Man takes Uber after argument at bar, both driver and victim shot
SAN ANTONIO - A man is behind bars after following an Uber and shooting at both the driver and a man he argued with at a local bar.On December 10, the 26-year-o

It's like this, with taxis you know who's running them because they bring you your drugs. You fsck with a taxi your dead meat, simple as that. Taxi drivers will beat down a drunk in seconds if he even thinks of doing something to another taxi driver.
But Uber is a corporation, the drivers are independent contractors and competitors with other drivers. All have passed background checks, unlike taxis, thus clean good people for the most part. Thus it's basically an open goddam season on Uber drivers because we are not allowed to carry a gun, nor part of the drug trade because they are tracking the shit out of us. Certainly another Uber driver won't come to the aid of another because to us its more money with another driver taken out.
So how to reverse this situation? Our vehicles are not clearly as visible vibrant as a taxi and this may be part of the problem. But if even so, without the assaulter knowing in advance he's dead meat before he screws with an Uber more are just going to do the same.
What Uber needs to do is bail this joker out of jail and leave his post animal meat grinder remains on the streets to send the word that it won't take this crap. 😂
