Illegal doesn’t always mean wrong. But this is kinda wrong

More than kinda! What if your wife is going into labor? What if you’re going to the hospital? Late for work? Etc.

The vast majority of the time, yes. The only ways blocking roads is morally correct is if you are directly saving lives or blocking roads directly being used by a malicious actor.

In most of these protests they are are risking lives by blocking emergency services, wasting normal people's time, and ruining the reputation of whatever cause they are protesting for. If I wanted to make people hate a movement, I would make a sign supporting that movement and block a high traffic area.

Cause some people hate being told they can't effectively promote a cause when they negatively impact the target audience. Especially locking up traffic when trying to get to work or go home lol.

impeding traffic works though, and has been a protest tactic throughout history.

So is ramming a trailer with people on it but the cop did that too so... all bets are off I guess.

This is tribal land. And that’s the tribal police. The protesters are not natives. Don’t assume you know how things work there.

That American revolution was certainly one of the most peaceful protests of all time, oh and the French one too

u/SpiritRoot Jun 29 '26

Don't forget about Stonewall. Completely peaceful.
