        Disruptive?

        I know the point of the protest, but protesting doesn’t entail endangering other people’s lives and/or property.

        People still have a right to defend themselves and/or property.

        Standing in the road when you have a permit to do so? Sure. Standing on the highway where it’s illegal? That’s stupid. I’ve seen clips of “protestors” pulling people out of their cars and beating them down.

        There’s a point to where these so-called protests have lost their effectiveness. People will look past the point after you burn so many cop cars or buildings, vandalizing cars or monuments, etc.

        Say what you want. But there’s a line that shouldn’t be crossed, and it’s crossed often.

        If you’re doing something illegal while protesting, your point fades away when you get arrested.

        I’d like to protest my union’s (NALC) shitty contract, but we have a no strike clause. So we can’t “protest” by standing in the middle of the road to “disrupt” traffic.

        We simply vote “no” and make them try again.

        There’s a difference between “disruptive” and “effective”.
