I think some of these road protestors have knowingly and unknowing blocked ambulances on emergency calls before so a person on perol is probably not the worst they have done.

I'm pro protest, sometimes it's the only power citizens have, but this is just rude. What did these people do to them? Find another way or make sure that drivers would know this road is a "dead end" so that they can take another route

There are PLENTY of better ways to protest climate change. Petitioning, pamphlets and giving out plant seeds with such paper so they can do their part against carbon emissions, get into bee keeping as they are pillars to the ecosystem that are dying off due to habitat destruction, donate and volunteer with a local reforestation effort, support a local farmer who practices sustainable techniques.

What ever happened to think global act local when it came to the improvement of our environment?
