Perhaps they should be granted the ‘freedom’ to support themselves without government assistance if caught in one of these ‘protests’.

I've been saying for years that Obamaphones are riot-communication devices, and if you're caught in some flashmob, you should have to turn yours in.

Also, although it goes against my free-market leanings, I think some serious identification and identification trail should exist for burner phones. Hell, we are forced to do more for cold medicine!

I will never understand why these idiots think blocking major public highways helps their cause. It just makes a lot more people despise them.
