I'm not talking about the not my king thing I don't care about that and think they should be able to protest as long as they are not blocking roadways used by the public but the just stop oil protests that have occured on essential roadways that have stopped people from getting to where they need to go are the problem
But what's the point of a protest that doesn't inconvenience people? As long as emergency vehicles can pass, the stopping people going where they want is kinda the point
It's not inconveniencing people it's making so that people can't get done what they need to get done or may not be able to say goodbye to their parents in the hospital
So, in other words, inconveniencing them.
