Block the entrance of the legislature and the courthouse. Make sure lawmakers can't get in or out. Put them under siege if you have to. But the every day people have absolutely no say in the matter shouldn't be blocked from their daily lives. It's like stopping my kids from playing because I can't get a raise at work.
I don't blame drivers if they park their bumper 3 inches off your legs and lean on the horn. Or push through your group. Or cheer when the cops use pepper spray against the group to get traffic flowing again. Because when you interrupt people's daily lives, you become the bad guys, and the police are seeing as the helpful people. If you can't see that, then I'm sorry things will never change for you.
