If the intersection was blocking access to a bridge, then maybe an ambulance could be blocked. I don't think someone has to cross the river between Minneapolis and St. Paul to find a hospital. What have totally benign demonstrations accomplished in putting a stop to the criminal acts by our government? The M$M needs something sensational to pay attention to those noisy lefties and unimportant citizens.
I have heard people on this thread say that we need something dramatic as happened in the Nam protests to actually make a difference. I am not advocating dangerous violence. The only war protest in Chicago that got significant media attention was when traffic was snarled on a major lake shore drive by marchers insisting on walking down it.
