I don’t blame them - it won’t make financial sense.

There won’t be any businesses left to deliver to in many cities. Flash mobs will likely loot everything if they are even open because who would stop them?

Guy called into Red Eye Radio and said that drivers had the right under their Teamsters contract to refuse pickups and drops or transiting any location up to and including entire states without questions

If I were a trucker, I might carry some loads to Seattle or NY City, but I would certainly demand double or triple normal rates.

Either way, its just another clear message to common-sense people and producers in these destructive leftist-controlled cities. Get out ASAP!

This is a fabulous idea! And who on earth could blame them? It’s really past due time to take the offensive and teach these idiotic subversives some lessons on reality!

What makes you think you can get insurance?
One wonders what the insurance companies will have to say about police free cities?

Who can blame them? Everyone knows that food will run out very quickly and when it does those hungry thugs will kill for food. If the city and state govt’s dont enforce civil law then the fed will have no choice but to confront the mass of bandits. I say put them down...put them down hard with the extreme malice that they deserve. OR Let them crumble within over time and endure the tragic consequences.

Might pilots and flight crews and even airlines refuse to fly into airports of such clearly dangerous cities?

Just asking.

Don’t worry, truckers. Just paint “Work boots” or “Books” on the side of your truck.

The first Civil War was easier. In my opinion.
They had contrasting color uniforms and certain states and territories on each side.

We have to fight only some corporations like Nike,Gillette, Xfinity-Comcast and Starbucks. Some cities (sanctuary cities and ones supporting BLM riots). Certain relatives. Some neighbors. Who knows which people walking by in my 80% Dem city (since 1970s voting records) are viciously anti-Trump and anti-me?

Now truckers may be sabotaged or shot by snipers. And police as always ambushed and killed. And which cops will take a knee like Colin K?

This war is complex. But we did not choose it. The left planned and started it.

The George Floyd cops are in jail and going to trial someday. Why tear down the American Way of Life over that? Because that is the left’s plan all along.

This makes sense. Why would they deliver to these places?

They would be prime targets to be robbed, as we've already seen in the riots.

Choices in life have consequences. The buttercups are going to find this out.
