11. It's not about "protesters blocking the road."

That's what they want you to think, that the problem is not the protest but the blocking of the road.

No, the problem is with the protest. They want to normalize this shit and then I guarantee you will gravitate towards running over or killing protesters, period - on the sidewalk, on the grass, anywhere they might be. Anywhere at all. No matter whether they're "blocking" or impeding anything.

It's about using the threat of violence to stifle any and all dissent, of any type.
