So I'm really baffled at the logic of how blocking traffic is going to raise sympathy and support for a cause. Throw on top of that in downtown Anchorage on a night that's darker than my ex-wife's heart and the streets are slicker than a couple of strippers in a kiddie pool with a bucket of KY, standing in front of traffic sounds like an expedient way to meet Allah.
Looked it up when I got home tonight, evidently they're pissed at our lone US Representative, democrat Mary Peltola and were trying to block access to her fundraiser at Willawa Social Club tonight. Not a very effective protest when all I had to do was back up and drive around the block, but it still pisses me off.

Seems like a waste of perfectly-good gasoline. Next time, go straight through them, save gas, save the planet! It's for the children!

RULE 2: “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” They're lemmings/puppets, and not capable of more than being a roadblock.
RULE 6: “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They saw the Just Stop Oil crowd blocking streets all over Europe (e.g. London) last year make the world news. The lemmings/puppets saw a lifestyle with beginning the day with a meeting at a coffee shop, spending the day protesting with new "friends", going to the pub after protesting or getting out of jail, sense of belonging from private communication system for just them and their "friends", and just stop oil even had a banquet (BTW, hilarious video of YouTube pranksters ruining it). Of course, being lemmings they can't comprehend that it pissed off orders of magnitude more people than it inspired.
The four steps of the Cloward-Piven Strategy:
Overload and Break the Welfare System - People on welfare have plenty of time to block traffic. If they get injured by traffic they cost the gov't even more money which will break the system quicker (i.e. better in eyes of a GDC).
Have Chaos Ensue - blocking streets is a form of chaos, but it's not the chaos the puppetmasters are after. They're after the normals getting fed up and responding. In other words, they're trying to bait us and set us up.
Take Control in the Chaos - this is the part where gov't has to intervene
Implement Socialism and Communism through Government Force - The puppetmaster's have been waiting in the shadows for this part to insure that the wrong lesson will be "learned" about the root cause of the chos and the "solution" is to implement socialism/communism.

Plus, they're trolling. First priority is to piss people off. That charges them up. They get off on it.
I was watching Peter Navarro's press conference yesterday after he was sentenced. There were a couple of pinko broads standing directly behind him holding signs, yelling the he was a liar, ringing a cowbell continuously, etc..., to the point that you could not hear his answers. Kudos to him and his team for remaining calm. I'd have turned around and slapped the taste out of that little bitches mouth. If the police are not going to do their job, somebody has to.

If I'm trying to get somewhere and some organization is blocking the road,
I would immediately consider donating to whatever cause they are against.

Who is organizing all these protests? I can't imagine that there are that many people here in the US who really give two shits about the Palestinians.

The US Bureau of Prisons has, I believe, 13 medical centers for prisoners. Serious conditions are treated in the community, by civilian doctors. All medical needs are met, and it is very unlikely anyone will try to hurt him.
