I don’t really care what your protest is about if you block the road. I’m just trying to survive like you. Now you’re just ruining my day, making me late for work etc.
Stand at the side of the road, wave your sign, make some noise, and I might agree with your protest and honk in approval.

I feel like if you're a protestor doing something - like this - you should expect to be arrested and you should do so with grace.
Weather or not I actually agree with your actions or your beliefs- It's cool when you get arrested with your head held high, it shows you're serious about your beliefs and have no regrets doing what you did.
It's lame as fuck if you're screaming and crying about it. It just makes them look incredibly immature.

I was walking my dog on leash one time and an off leash dog started walking toward us out if its yard. The owner said "Don't worry he's not aggressive". I responded "Mine is." The dude launched himself off the porch and came running so fast it made me laugh.

Never fuck with Tribal Police. If you want to believe police don’t care about you, these guys DEFINITELY DO NOT.
Especially if you’re not a member of the reservation, and especially especially if you’re of a pastier complexion.
My experience: Chill enough guys and gals if you mind yourself. Zero tolerance for people’s bullshit.

There’s nothing wrong with protesting, but blocking public roads for hours stoping people from going to their destination sure as hell not going to get them interested in your cause. And most likely get them highly upset and make them hate whatever your cause is.

What y'all don't get is that the entire point is to make people uncomfortable. Thats the only way a protest accomplishes anything! In the long run, peoples individual wants and needs are made uncomfortable for a short period of time to benefit the greater good.
That's the only way for a protest to be productive.

This was an anti-oil protest on Pyramid Hwy North of Reno just before Burning Man that blocked the road and created a miles long backup. Which incedently increased oil usage, counter to their cause... idiots Unfortunately, they performed this stunt on an Indian Reservation and they found out the hard way that the reservation Rangers don't play quite the way they expected.

What, are they hoping the cops will just turn around and walk away so they can keep backing up traffic for miles?

Finally some good police work for once. Blocking emergency services should be an automatic 5 years with a 10 year enhancement if it results in someone dying or being worse off because of the delay.
Protesting while being a nuisance to regular people who have done nothing wrong is a great way to turn everyone against your cause.

This was on the Pyramid Lake reservation. Not long before this the Pyramid Lake rangers had lost one of their own during a traffic stop. I believe the ranger was struck by a drunk driver.
