Too much ice

Do you think it should be legal to block streets and keep people from moving?

Waiting for awhile for him to test his theory that it’s ok but he’s just an argument starting internet troll and nothing more

 

[Rickyvol77]

Most protests already have streets blocked off, in NYC they generally work with NYPD and I assume you know that. But yeah "blocking streets" doesn't make something violent and acting like jaywalking is violence is VN classic material. That's so funny

If you don't have a permit, it's not "blocked off"....I am not talking about those protests...I am talking about people keeping people from going to work, home, to get their kids, going to the hospital, etc.

As usual you are conflating two different things, but luckily most cities don't allow this type of behavior....and restricting someone's movement IS violence....

he can't help it....he thinks its edgy and some people lack the prefrontal cortex and IQ to understand simple basic logic

There is a reason some relate to criminals/terrorists/third world illegals and not actual Americans

If you were on your way driving somewhere important and 10-15 MAGA trumpers blocked your car and surrounded it and wouldn’t let you leave what would you do?

If a MAGA protest blocked my car because people were walking in the roadway, I would not consider it violence

What would you do and I said if they surrounded your car

That's not how protests work, they are generally walking or demonstrating rather than picking out one car, surrounding it and menacing them. That's a lot more than jaywalking

So again, for the third time, answer what you would do in that scenario

I bet he would be angry and yell from his Miata but confusion would ensue as his words would be muffled because he drives with a mask on.

More fantasizing from my stalker. How many posts is that about me today without me speaking to you once until now?

Probably nothing unless they started trying to break into my car or something. But you might as well ask what would happen if they pulled my friend out of the car and stabbed him, because they're about equally relevant to "jaywalking is violence"

Again "jaywalking" itself is not the issue, I included it because some jurisdictions will charge those protestors with jaywalking, some will charge them with kidnapping or similar charges.. What recently happened in Memphis was due to this type of "protest"

And you would sit for 2 hours in your car and do nothing because people surround it and won't let you leave? interesting

This is a weird hypothetical where a group of people picks out one car, stands there for 2 hours without doing anything violent or bothering anyone else, and then leaves. That's not violence and doesn't even sound like a protest. It seems telling that you're making up this tortured hypo rather than giving an example that actually happened

In Tennessee you run them the hell over and it’s their fault

Most normal jurisdictions prevent this type of stuff....only in places like NY, CA, Memphis, Minneapolis etc. do you get where police arresting these idiots or citizens defending themselves against it get criticized.

The fact is the Broken Windows Theory and the Crime Triad are old but real and reliable criminal justice theories and they exist today despite what leftists who make excuses for criminals say

Floor it

Correct regardless of which protestors are there

That's a little harsh. If it's MAGA protesters surrounding your vehicle just throw some Miller Lite out the window and drive away slowly. If it's liberal protesters surrounding you throw some nasty IPA out and drive away quickly, you don't want them to get your tag number and have them hunt you down for more free stuff.

woh woh woh, I love IPAs and I'm definitely not a leftist. LOL

It is funny to me that the beer of MAGA alpha males is the most watered down flavor and low alcohol content stuff out there. That is Budweiser's sin, not outreach to the trans community.

 

[LouderVol]

I'm not talking about the law at all. I am talking about right and wrong.

Forget about what the laws may actually be. The very fact that we have laws about entrapment is because we all agree entrapment (of otherwise innocent people) is bad, right? Ipso facto, entrapment of teens in the form of a dangerous situation involving deliberate provocation against those exercising free speech is especially wrong, right?

you went from it being a political issue (GOP), to now a moral issue. those are two different arguments.

anyone looking to cause a fight is not a good thing. period.

Exactly. If you’re in my way and I feel a threat, It don’t matter if you’re right left black white gay straight. They can all get it

This has become one of those things that has worn me down somewhat and I'm just out of sympathy. Outside of specialized circumstances roads are free travel routes. Everybody gets everywhere by them. The whole "my feelz tantrum justifies in my mind the right to straight **** over everybody that needs to get anywhere" can pound all the sand that exists on the planet and so can anyone that tries to defend those people. There's no bias in this either. I don't care why they've decided their cause is so special and it could be something I whole heartedly endorse but it's not your MF'ing road...move.
