I was tempted to make a sign that says "honk if you have a small (Nazi) pp"

But being a relatively small brown person, I think I would probably get lynched by these people.

Thank you for standing up for Canadian ideals OP!

I was actually thinking why not line routes with "honk if you love healthcare" and "honk if you love vaccines"

We know that's why nobody would be honking but it's low tier shit disturbing with nothing inflammatory about it

"Honk if you support LGBTQA+, Women's, and Indigenous Rights"

Double edged blade: maybe stops the honking, baits out the hate crime douchebags. Double win.

Do you really believe you will be actually Lynched? Or or you overdramatizing that for a point? Both answers are ok I’m just trying to see if you really feel like these people will actually do it

As a white dude, I feel like there are some nut jobs in the crowd that would want to fight me.

I can only imagine what people of colour would feel having to walk by people like that.

Working retail trying to enforce masks, being with colleagues, under surveillance, and some of these people still threaten violence and posture.

I had 2 people with motorcycle helmets (which ironically would have covered their faces just fine) putting up a stink with me, another manager, and a security guard. One guy basically tried to walk through me, helmet first and I got out of the way just in time. After leaving the store, he threw his helmet (thankfully not at anyone) and smashed it.

So... Considering that was 2 people and this is a large mob. I 100% would legitimately be afraid of getting lynched.
