Assault isn't fucking cool

These people were much nicer then I would have been getting these dead beat losers out of the way. They are lucky no driver said fuck it and ran them over, this is how people get into accidents as well.

Neither is kidnapping. One of those cars was transporting important medicine to a hospital, that a patient was waiting on.

I'm sorry, I'm from America and don't see any way how that could be considered kidnapping.

Kidnapping/preventing people from leaving...po-tay-to, po-tah-to

Protest causing inconvenience is kind of, at least partially, the point.

People got mouths to feed. Aka go to work. Don't expect sympathy when you start to fuck with that.

I'm all for freedom of protest but outside rioting this is one of the shittiest ways to do it. They are probably and most likely inconviencing people that agree with them. Then we got dumb people in the world too. Someone who didn't really have an opinion on the matter now hates that side cause they got inconvenienced

In other words I think this form of protest does more harm than good

I'd reckon that the threat of going without food as a result of not working is more related to capitalism being a shitty and cruel system but then, that's literally just a basic well documented fact.

Someone somewhere is always going to find some sort of protest to be inconvenient for them.

If not the drivers on the highway, it will be the drivers on the road stuck in traffic. Or the pedestrians on the road that have to take a detour.

Honestly, at some level people should just admit that they don't like protests nearly as much as they claim to

There isn't a damn thing wrong with working for a living. Nothing is free in this world. In the old days people had to farm or hunt for food that was a hell of a lot more work than what I do for my food.

This is important to note.

Its silly to just blindly protest somewhere. At least protest where your theoretical opposition would be at.

No. Being inconvenienced doesn't justify assault regardless of how entitled you feel.

Maybe don't sit on a highway while people with real jobs need to get to work. I'm not going to get fired because some soy fuck wants to act like a child in the middle of the highway.

Depending on where they were going, it might not just be inconvenienced. This could cause people to lose their jobs, for instance. Why should I let someone cause me my job, which could cost me something like my house, or safety for my family Someone else mentioned how one of the vehicles was transporting medicine someone else needed. Why should my hat person have to die? While this may only be an inconvenience to some, it could be much more to other people Assault in this case is justified At least, the assault of dragging them out of the middle of the road

That's entirely after-the-fact justification.

That's entirely after-the-fact justification for people doing something because they're mad at being inconvenienced. People in their cars don't clean up the highway after a wreck because they might be late to work, so it's weird that the "I might lose my job" only applies here.

It's really not though and the comparison is so abjectly off base that between this and people justifying assault it's obvious which side is unable to control their emotions and be logical about things.

Alt right isn't a good look, get out while you still can.

Yeah can we please not block roads while protesting?

Last thing I need to deal with after a long day of work dealing stupid idiots all day is more stupid idiots blocking the road.

Not even barely on the right. Protest all you want but blocking highways and roads when emergency vehicles are involved is where I draw the line.

You're more likely to get fired for missing work for assault and the resulting court dates and sentencing and so on.

People like you are reason enough to block more roads.

>having and wanting to maintain a career makes you alt right.

And you wonder why the far left pushes centrists to the right

Centrists are already right wingers.

Using terms like "real job" makes you an enemy of the working class.

Can we also not block sidewalks, parks, and building entrances during protests? Last thing I want to deal with after a long day is people blocking my path to where I'm going
