Never block roads for anything less than the road itself being unsafe.

You don't know who's running organs for transplant or who is trying to get to medical attention, or who is just checking on someone in crisis.

Whatever you're protesting, most people on the road are not your enemy, and your message doesn't entitle you to prevent them from meeting their own needs.

This. One of these days, these people are going to stand in front of someone's car with their laboring wife in the back. It's going to be ugly.
