I hate it that I see people actually support these damn rioters. I would’ve been fine with them (though I don’t believe in their cause) if it was simply a protest. Occupying capital hill? Sure, that’s okay. A group of natives did that a few years ago and I supported that.
But disrupting the peace, especially when all the MPs went home and was comfortably sleeping half a city away while the locals were desperately covering their ears at four in the morning? That’s not protesting, that’s borderline domestic terrorism.
It was an occupation, not a protest. Protests target the powerful and in charge. Occupations target the weak and vulnerable. And only one of those groups were anywhere close to the truckers past the usual 9-5.
