Poll: Is it a good idea, or a bad idea, to stand in the street in front of oncoming traffic?
(*) It's a good idea.

Since YouTube came into existence many years ago, I have watched a huge number of different videos of protestors in the U.S. standing in the street in front of oncoming traffic.
And in every case – every single one – the protestors were always left wing, and never right wing.
Occupy Wall St. took that term literally – they occupied the street. So did Black Lives Matter. And now the anti-Trumpers are doing it.
But of all the tea party protests and anti-Obama protests that I have ever watched, I have never seen even one where they were standing in the street in front of oncoming traffic.
Why is that?
Here is a recent anti-Trump protest from San Diego, where they are standing in the street, in the dark of night, in front of oncoming traffic, and which shows – with a very loud “THUD!” – one of them getting hit by a car:

Next question.... Would you rather smell your own farts or someone elses?
Why do “protesters” have the right to block traffic? Are they hoping someone gets killed for their cause? Do they know that the majority of Americans would say, “Good riddance”?
The fun thing to see is how far they get thrown.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Now that we know that approx. 2/3 of anti-Trump protesters and rioters didn’t even vote in the presidential election, maybe those of us who did vote should treat them with a civil indifference because it’s legal and also because we don’t care.
All they have demonstrated is that they are not willing and/or able to put as much into life as they seem to expect to get out of tax-paying American citizens.
I think it’s a great idea! Yep!
The answer is:
“That depends on how good your lawyer is.”
Lawyers have made society loose all common sense.
Dunno ‘bout you, but I would be in fear of my life if I were stopped by such people.
Not only didn’t they vote, but their “work” consists of Soros-paid “protesting”!!!!
Better idea: Take the poll from those who’ve actually stood in front of oncoming traffic.......:0)
A man died because an ambulance had to take a 45-minute detour. A pregnant woman trying to get to the ER was surrounded and her car attacked with baseball bats. So no, not a good idea.
Rachael Corrie Axiom: We must all decide what we are willing to die for. It is just a shame that many will decide to die in the quest of so little.

Only if you are a college educated Clinton supporter. The rest of us can figure out that a car traveling 70 mph (which would be very conservative for an open freeway in SoCal) is traveling at over 100 feet per second. Figure in complacency (thinking about something other than driving), darkness, reaction times, and the fact, no one is looking for an idiot standing on the freeway, I think it is a good idea for liberals to stand on the freeway. I feel sorry for the drivers that have to repair their cars.
Is is better to be run over, or go flying over the hood?
Which hurts more? Getting hit by a semi? Or a smart car?
How good is that Google car collision avoidance software?
Will the motorist really stop? Or keep going because the threat I pose is too great a risk to compel his stopping?
etc.
It’s a GREAT idea!
Screaming speedbumps decrease the amount of whining snowflakes by however many get bumper thumped.
The herd that learns “roads are bad” survives.

I think it is a good idea and Ihope all Liberal moonbats stand in front of cars.
