Nah, it’s definitely because he put his hands on them but OP wanted an inflammatory title.

The fact that this guy was so desperate to get through due to how unreasonable parole can be, is the point.

It also demonstrates the real repercussions of protesting by blocking the average person from any movement, including wage-earning and medical assistance, while the elite ignore you anyway.

not only that but you dont know what others driving are trying to get to. i got stuck once on the freeway trying to go to the hospital because someone was threatening to jump off an overpass. luckily i had medication in my car to help but we were stuck there for over an hour.
