As infuriating as they may be, sometimes, they make us laugh. A video posted by the Daily Caller shows a compilation of protesters trying to block traffic and failing miserably. Enjoy!

Reply Firehawk jj June 20, 2017 RANT TIME: The laws, Penal & Traffic Codes, need a serious update, and/or amendments as they relate to the increasing and dangerous behaviors, actions and the tools or methods of protest utilized and abused by protesters and their actions that effect the safety, welfare and protection of the general public, businesses, first responders and law enforcement. This right is defined and expressed in the First Amendment of the constitution… The Right to protest is a guarantee and inherent to all “LEGAL Citizens” by the Constitution of the United States. It is defined in that Constitution as follows; “Congress shall make no law respecting …the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances” … ‘people’ defined as “legal native or legally immigrated citizens” possessing the rightful privilege to vote to express their choice and position in the matters of government and representation, that pay taxes to support the operation of their government and its responsibilities… It does not allow for protesters to impair, impose or interfere the free progress with and/or threaten the safety of others or properties, private or business… that is, to otherwise by their assembly of protest they cannot limit, block or impair those not participating, disagreeing or opposing the purpose of said protests by impairing or blocking public, or private, egress; streets, roadways or highways. Further more protesters cannot vandalize or destroy properties, public, private or businesses. Nor are they permitted to use abusive or violent behaviors to express their positions. The First & Fourteenth Amendments define and address the parameters and limits of protests and it’s participants. It further identifies certain requirements that may be imposed by Federal, State and Local Governments… The First Amendment to the Constitution prohibits the United States Congress from enacting legislation that would abridge the right of the people to assemble peaceably. The Fourteenth Amendment makes this prohibition applicable to state and local governments. The Supreme Court of the United States has held that the First Amendment protects the right to conduct a peaceful public assembly. The right to assemble is not, however, absolute. Government officials cannot simply prohibit a public assembly in their own discretion, but the government can impose restrictions on the time, place, and manner of peaceful assembly, provided that constitutional safeguards are met. Time, place, and manner restrictions are permissible so long as they “are justified without reference to the content of the regulated speech, . . . are narrowly tailored to serve a significant governmental interest, and . . . leave open ample alternative channels for communication of the information.” Such time, place, and manner restrictions can take the form of requirements to obtain a permit for an assembly. The Supreme Court has held that it is constitutionally permissible for the government to require that a permit for a peaceful assembly be obtained in advance. The government can also make special regulations that impose additional requirements for assemblies that take place near other major public or private events. The organizer(s) of a public assembly must typically apply for and obtain a permit in advance from the local police department or other local governmental body. Applications for permits usually require, at a minimum, information about the specific date, time, and location of the proposed assembly, and may require a great deal more information. Localities can, within the boundaries of Supreme Court decisions interpreting the First Amendment right to assemble peaceably, impose additional requirements for permit applications, such as information about the organizer of the assembly and specific details about how the assembly is to be conducted. The 1st Amendment does not provide the right to conduct an assembly at which there is a clear and present danger of riot, disorder, or interference with traffic on public streets, or other immediate threat to public safety or order. Statutes that prohibit protesters from assembling and using force or violence and/or violating crimes against properties, by committing vandalism, damaging or destroying properties,, to accomplish unlawful goals or purposes are permitted to impose those limits as statutes by state and local governments under the 1st Amendment. And that the responsibility for and potential of prosecution for violating the limits lies not only on the perpetrators of the acts but on the organizers of the assembly as well…. So… wow! I got carried away again…sorry… but.. after In the event that, for example, a protest or march that the participants impair or block a roadway or highway with the intent to impede, obstruct or prevent others, non-participants, even that are in opposition, from progressing, preventing or causing delays, intentionally taking the time of others, not permitting progress in the timely expectation and impairing the “pursuit of happiness”. And in the event that protest participants violate the provisions of assembly and are injured, or worse, by their acts, (e.g. standing in the middle of a highway), the responsibility of, and prosecution of, those involved in the event should lie with the actors, (the one’s standing in the roadway that get plowed down), as well as the organizers identified in the permit documentation… Or the perpetrators committing acts of vandalism or destruction of property should be held as responsible, financially and legal prosecution in the violations and the end results… Reply Frances Carlson July 19, 2017 Love your rant.
