Yup, your convenience is a hellova lot more important than the economy of the country.
That would only apply if they were driving Jacks.
It isnt my convenience wise guy its the business and convenience of thousands of Americans who are on the side of the truckers.
Why do something stupid like a rolling roadblock that only pisses off people who the majority of are on your side to begin with. They can park their trucks around the White House, the Mall, the Capitol. They can picket every State House in Every State. They can bring forth the Teamsters and picket Comgressmen and Senators homes. I will even join them. Screwinf around with the public so Americans cant get to work or do their jobs, so Police cant get to emergencies, So emergency vehicles cant get through, Thats stupid.
Well you get mine so we are even.
I can t help but remember when the Hippies and anti-war dipsticks were out jamming the streets, causing congestion and we were all condemning them for that. Now it appears some of us support truck drivers doing the self same thing.
Well I am all for American truckers. I am against illegal immigration, I am against Mexican trucks in the US and against drivers license for illegals.
I am also against truckers using the Highways for their demonstration and screwing up the lives of thousands.
I said when they jam me up I would be for the Mexicans. That wasnt good. I am retired I dont have to go to work every day or use the beltway so it doesnt inconvenience me in the least. I meant when they jam up people who have work and jobs and important things to do, Even if they jam up tourists —its wrong.
They need to find another way.
Hopefully, they will be talking about the Trucker's Boycott on the Midnight Truckers Radio Network this coming week. I just e-mailed the two hosts about the upcoming Trucker's Boycott, so they each have at least one e-mail in their inbox's telling them about the upcoming Trucker's Boycott.
If you all want to e-mail the hosts and add more Trucker's Boycott messages to their inbox's, just click on the link below to get the hosts e-mail addresses:
They are really going to piss in the pool this time. Expect a few fatalities as people try to pass them on the shoulders.
As far as the Mexican trucks thing goes, aren't there safety precautions built into the program already? I could have sworn that I read about some such.
Mexican truckers.
Doing the jobs American truckers want to do!
Thanks for the update. You would think they would want to at least mention or discuss the upcoming Truckers Boycott. Maybe they were told to keep mum about it or they would rather discuss entertainment or other b.s. things and not issues that directly effect Truckers and their livelihoods.
With today's news from Virginia Tech University, there will now likely be little, if any, talk on the radio about the upcoming Truckers Boycott, if there was any to begin with.
