EVERY STATE SHOULD OUTLAW THE PRACTICE OF BLOCKING ROADS FOR PROTESTS The purpose of this group is to see a legal change in the United States (and elsewhere) so that citizens are no longer stopped and held against their will due to protests on roads, highways, and interstates. We also desire to raise awareness about the risks that drivers take after being stopped illegally on a road. The best way to do this is to remove criminal and civil penalties against drivers who continue to proceed through the protesters. GROUP RULES & AFFIRMATIONS Be kind, even when you disagree. No need to name-call, threats are never tolerated. Please do not share realistic statements of violence. Discussions of self-defense should always be stated as such. No spam or self-promotion allowed. 3) We affirm that taking over roads is dangerous to all involved and should be universally illegal. We affirm that when traveling, hijackings, kidnapping, robbery, rape, and murder occur after drivers stop their vehicles and are defenseless. P.S. Every state in the US needs to decriminalize the act of simply driving on a highway, freeway & major roads when protesters are trying to unlawfully detain them. We don't want to see anyone get hurt, but when you're traveling you are very vulnerable. We don't want to be sitting ducks just waiting in line for a violent protester and angry mob to come to attack us.
