ok --- good idea or bad idea....

[TomDaisy]

Our State Capitol is pretty much just off the main highway running through the state.

Without exiting the highway into that area, on the morning of their next planned insurrection, I want to drive up and down that highway with "25A NOW" painted on my back window.

I'm not doing anything illegal. I'm not interfering with anyone's access or travel.

I am engaging in a push-back to their lawlessness that I feel I need to do, excising my own Free Speech rights and showing them that I will not submit to their terror attacks.

There should not be any problem unless they decide to run me off the road, in which case I will sue each one until I own them. All your pick up trucks are belong to me.

1. That would be putting you and the people who depend on you

at risk.

Personally, I would stay far away.

[soothsayer]

2. This

Better safe than sorry

[Ferrets are Cool]

3. You asked. Bad idea.

[lilmamba]

4. Nah not worth it

They're not worth your time. Not worth anyone’s time.

[NotASurfer]

5. Depends on how NRA-ish they are

And then if you think they can hit a moving target at that distance.

I love the idea!

[Blue_true]

6. Just ignore them.

I don’t drive pass the city center where I live because those numbnuts have been there every Saturday at noon since Biden was declared the winner. I just act like they don’t exist.

[okaawhatever]

7. IDK It's a good idea, as in sentiment, but I can't speak to repercussions

I would suggest getting friends to do it also. Safety in numbers. A rental car may not be a bad idea, just get the insurance LOL.

[brush]

8. Don't make yourself a target for the many armed magats out there.

[yonder]

9. I agree with the wise words of Lucky Charms - don't.

Choose your battles carefully.

[Blue Owl]

10. We're dealing with insane fuckers here...

with guns...

[sarisataka]

11. Can't sue if you are dead in a wreck

Bad idea

[Phoenix61]

12. A truly bad idea. Driving with a dash board

camera to get license plates to later share with appropriate LEO’s might be a better use of your time.

[okaawhatever]

13. Hey go in disguise. Put "5 squared now!" They won't suspect a thing. nt

[dem4decades]

14. Unless you're off duty FBI I wouldn't.

[BusyBeingBest]

15. Good luck. Big ole fat target.

[Karadeniz]

16. Or, Resign! Ok, but at the first sign of road rage... the merest hint...exit immediately. These

Looney toons may be armed and they're not exactly famous for being level headed or thinking anyone else has a right to free expression. Now I'm thinking that it might be too dangerous, given their unstable psyches. My vote is now to stay home!

[Irish_Dem]

17. Very bad idea. Right now is not the time to do this.

These people are well armed, well trained and crazy.
You are putting your self in potential grave risk to provoke them right now.
They are eager to spill blood.

If you are killed, you won't be able to sue anyone.
This is not fair to yourself and the people who care about you.

I know we are all feeling powerless and helpless, especially now.
Helpless about covid, helpless about the GOP and thugs trying to harm us and the country.

I did some volunteer work for the GA run off and I felt empowered, but did so in a safe way.
Maybe you can do something like that.

[Clearly fogged in]

18. It's up to you

my car is small with a du bumper sticker on the rear glass. do the right thing.

[NoRoadUntravelled]

19. So, you want to bait people with a sign on your truck to exercise your "Free Speech rights" by

engaging in a "push-back".
Give this another think.
Is this your highest truth? Is this the best you can do to help your country through one of the darkest times in its history?

Your country needs you now, more than ever. But, it's up to you to decide. It's your calling.
You can choose to spend your time baiting people into a game of Road Rage if that is where you are on your path.

But if you've got time on your hands there are a couple other things you can choose to do instead.

Volunteer at a food bank. Families are hungry. Food banks are having difficulty keeping up with the great demand due to Covid.
They will welcome your help. Better yet, start a food drive yourself to collect nonperishable items for your local foodbank.

Volunteer at your local animal shelter. They can always use the help. I have a friend who volunteers just to play with and pet the cats. Others do the same for dogs. The animals crave human attention and this is one way to help them as they wait for a permanent home. Help is needed cleaning cages, walking dogs, playing with cats.

Find a need and fill it. You're here for a reason. You may not know what it is yet but I guarantee you know what its not.

20. Bad.

[DFW]

21. Do you drive a Sherman Tank?

And do you have a competent, loyal crew, permits for all ordnance, and LOTS of ammunition for all weapons on it?

If so, go for it.

If not, I'd reconsider.

[BobTheSubgenius]

22. I like the attitude of it...the pushback.

But I think it could be dangerous. Look what these people have done already.

[SoonerPride]

23. It seems like you are wishing to provoke a confrontation

That is a bad idea.

[brewens]

24. At least a few of them will be able to read, so maybe a bad idea. n/t

[Bayard]

25. Depends on how bad you want your windows broken

Doubt insurance would cover that.

[love_katz]

26. Bad idea.

We need as many of us as possible to live so we can effectively push back against these jack wagons. Too often we have seen movies that make dying for a cause look glamorous and heroic. I think it's far more challenging to continue to live, doing what we can each day to promote and support the good.

[Make7]

27. Are there billboards in that area you could put up something provocative?

Get some local allies to chip in.

(I don't know what the cost would be for that.)

Maybe set up a recording device in case someone decides they really don't like your message.
