If they’re blocking the roads, they aren;t protestors.
They are rioters and it’s the responsibility of the authorities to clear them off the streets.
Not sure I can agree with you there, Ben. Sure blocking the roads is a small pain the tuchas for everybody else, but I’m fed up with a lot of BS. People have a right to assemble peacefully and they don’t need no stinkin’ permits either. There are always other roads for commercial and commuter traffic. As long as it is peaceful and in good faith to redress grievances, assembling on a boulevard or large intersection is fine by me.
