You might want to turn your volume down. The constant noise of car horns honking is really annoying. There is no narration from CBS.

People who have to work for a living are getting fed up with trust fund brats and professional protestors who don’t.

Yet look at whom the police support. As though blocking traffic isn’t literal ‘disorderly conduct’, blocking people from getting to work.

Speaking of….. for the craziest, and at times most evil, people on the internet. Read through this thread.

I’d hate to be one of these activists blocking someone with a medical emergency.

Throughout the western world, a LOT of people are getting fed up with these tantrums, and are getting a lot more aggressive against those throwing them.

And governments not doing anything to put a halt to them.

Imagine if someone waded into such protesters while wearing brass knuckles? They could clear a roadway in under a minute, once the agitators were incapacitated and dragged off the street. Then they could leave long before the cops made their appearance.

The way to confront them is to refuse to slow down.

Write traditional media off. They have sold their souls to woke culture and environmental terrorism. Further, I find it ironic years being on this site the virtually unbridled support for the police. Screw the police generally speaking. All you need to do is look at what happened in Ottawa regarding the peaceful protestors and how the police easily become brownshirts for the state.

How about baseball bats with "Drill Baby Drill" printed on 'em?

The police support whomever signs their paychecks.

I am prone to panic attacks.

I don’t drive, but many other afflicted people don’t abstain.

What is the charge?

Ten thousand counts of false imprisonment.

How do you plead?

Ignorant! Stupid! Misled!

Sure...and they want their pension.

I’ve cop cousin in the UK. He’s pretty liberal, I do wonder if most of them are. As a whole they appear quite political in every politicized situation.

The police are there to protect and serve...the State.

Another way to put it!

Although I prefer to distinguish the state (as in an agent for the people at the American republic once was) and the deep state (as in an agent for the oligarchs that we've become).

I know they don’t use that treatment in the USA for certain criminal activity, but maybe they should. I think from what I have heard that something of that order used to be employed in earlier days under certain conditions. Seems that a criminal might tend to remember it longer than a fine or a short term of imprisonment.

Today’s maximum temperature in London was 68F.
