It pisses me off that law enforcement is complicit in allowing this chaos.
-
I still do not understand how they think doing this will in any way get people on their side.
-
People that feel they have the right to block streets or cause traffic jams definitely lack being punched enough on the face😡👊🏻
-
What angers me the most is how they want oil to be stopped but don't bother to think about how the world will realistically function without it (currently) 😡😡
-
Couldn't agree more with the lady who said " why not go to the oil factory instead of stopping people from making a living"
-
Creating these "road blocks" makes drivers do longer detours to go around them... using more oil... Well done!
-
I think my brother was about three years old when he decided to "protest" by throwing himself on the floor and kicking and screaming. I threw about eight ounces of cold water in his face - and he never (to my knowledge) ever pulled that stunt again.
-
I think it's safe to say they are not making any friends or inspiring any support among their neighbors. In fact I think everyone has had about enough of these idiots, and they need to be jailed everywhere they do this.
-
This is what happens when an entire class of people grow up having never been punched in the face.
-
Can't they just go infront of some government building and protest there. Why distrupt civilians life?
-
Just stop oil……….a bunch of people, old and young, who have nothing better to do than cause trouble for people who are trying to get along with their day. All of their blockages have done is turn people away from their cause. I am now pro-oil! Go oil! The laws need to be changed that any anyone,ANYONE, who impedes traffic will be arrested, have heavy fines, and can be sued by the people they caused to be inconvenienced be their stupid actions!
-
The problem is not the mentally ill it's the law enforcement and politicians who refuse to stop them.
-
What I don't understand is that If I walked down a road with a placard saying anything or nothing I would be arrested. What makes these people immune to prosecution? They are after all blocking a highway and causing a nuisance. Are there not grounds for a private prosecution?
-
Stories of people missing funerals, ambulances being held up. Absolutely disgusting! I feel particularly sorry for the lady who was have a stroke and had to wait behind these scumbags while she suffered permanent brain damage because of the delay.
-
Just imagining how this would have gone down if they pulled this stunt where I live in Texas. RIP 😬
-
So we are not running out of oil as predicted in the 70s. Thank God.
-
I’m not really someone who gets mad very easily but, these protesters unlock a rage inside of me like no other.
-
The irony is that this protest most likely resulted in the burning of more oil due to increasing people's journey times by creating more traffic.
-
I love how they are filming the driver like he's in the wrong lmao
-
One of the protesters had a sign that read "I won't die quietly." This is true.
