I don’t advocate for murdering protesters. And traffic can still move with planned closures.
But there are plenty of scenarios where I would choose freeway blockaders having to reap the consequences of their actions vs some innocent citizen stuck in traffic having to suffer or die like if they had a medical emergency.
In a highly contrived hypothetical, if I were rushing my wife to the hospital with a gunshot wound and got stuck in the front line of traffic facing blockaders, and they refused or were unable to move to let me by, yeah, I’d do what I had to do to get my wife to the hospital. And furthermore I’d be doubly pissed at the protesters for the PTSD I’d no doubt suffer if I injured or killed them in the process.
Life isn’t all roses vs tanks, there are a million shades of gray in between and people like you and people who glue themselves to freeway road surfaces have no capacity for nuance. Is it any wonder most people don’t take you seriously in your endeavors? You’re just turning more reasonable people against yourselves.
