The marchers from Selma at the Pettus Bridge would agree with you!I wasn't going to believe that black lives matter, but congesting traffic has changed all that.
Police should have just calmly moved them onto the shoulder, out of the way of everyone and let them sit there until they had to beg emergency workers for help to get free. "Sorry ma'am, we can't reach you for several hours as protesters have blocked traffic."
i think the way they are designed...an accidental tip could seriously injur the protestor. Its less liability to cut them out on the spot.
So everybody that posts on this forum is stupid?
Why worry about injuries to idiots who chained their arms together in a barrel, then poured concrete in filling the barrel, let it harden and had themselves dropped off on a highway blocking all traffic?
Stupid actions have serious consequences.
Morons lives don't matter.
I really wish they could have just relocated the protesters. Say, to a parking lot or something.

This. Oh please, this. A couple days stewing in their own feces might help curb their sense of entitlement and self-importance.Police should have just calmly moved them onto the shoulder, out of the way of everyone and let them sit there until they had to beg emergency workers for help to get free.

lolI gotta think this one over more carefully. I could cement myself in a barrel, grab a sign that says "the Green Bay Packers matter" and have myself deposited on I-94. Instant worldwide fame for myself. My face plastered all over the internet, on youtube, etc.... Very tempting I must say. The only caveats is that it could have a deletrious impact on my career and I am unsure of how to parlay the fame into quick cash.
On a somewhat related note, I have had a brush with an internet viral video. I was coming home from Best Buy on a very busy 4 lane street. I had my camera with me. It was a Saturday morning in December. The street runs beside an exclusive Jewish golf course with high chained link fence beside it. Sitting against the fence in broad daylight with his pants down was a homeless man taking a shit into the golf course. It did not occur to me that I could have recorded that event for youtube profit until days later. I briefly considered "recreating" the event myself but I think the consequences could possibly outweigh any income generated by the viral video.
lol
1. Cement self into barrel.
2. ?
3. Big profit!
That is kinda the point with civil disobedience.Fat people are better at blocking roads than thin people.
That said, blocking the highway inconveniences everybody, not just the ones who are perpetrating the crimes.
I am looking for investors in this scheme. Are you in? There is a $10,000 buy-in fee. I will accept money orders. How does WereHolePossum Enterprises bite ya? Since it is my idea, I of course am the president. You would be second in command. Since you are the underling, you will have to do the sitting on the freeway in a barrel of cement easy work. I will handle all the managment hard work.
This is true, although all that padding also protects valuable chrome from sharp bones.Fat people are better at blocking roads than thin people.

Nah, I'm more of a big picture kinda guy than a do stuff outside kind guy. Not to mention that if I spent $10,000 I wouldn't have to put myself in a barrel of concrete, my wife would have handled that for me.I am looking for investors in this scheme. Are you in?
