This was shared to me earlier today of an incident on the weekend where after incident where residents of apartment building tried to ask them to tone it down. This was action taken by some members of the "protest".

For the record I'm not opposed to these people protesting, we have freedom to do that. I do have a problem with them buzzing hospitals, harassing nurses and medical staff.
I had no idea we had so many mentally unstable people in this country.

Have you met people? The average person is dumber than a bag of hammers, and 50% are below that.
We drove by the freedumb convoy through the valley on the weekend. My middle fingers were getting sore from flipping them off. Seriously, they're mostly just rednecks and wilfully ignorant people who are confusing inconvenience with oppression.
One man's freedom ends where another's begins.
I was making a turn at Boundary and Broadway with my 9 year old daughter on Saturday and the Micky Dees lot was filled with flag adorned trucks. She casually turned to me and said "I guess this is where all the morons are stopping for a snack before the big rally." I LOLed so hard. She is so indoctrinated by me she will probably be on here arguing with Tungsten soon. :)
This could have gone wrong quickly. I guess the driver has been let go.
All this shit is so depressing. What happened?

Successful misinformation campaigns, a dash of corrupt incumbent political parties, with a healthy dose of poor critical thinking skills. Simmer until wealth equality hits a certain number and boom, zombies available for your each and every command.

I have to agree that describes the nation's capitol pretty well.

No excuse, but look closely, driver's a punk. Young guys are the worst liability behind the wheel even of commercial vehicles. Shouldn't be that way but it is. Especially those big building supply rigs. I used to look out for those guys driving my transit bus they all trended younger. Exception being container truck drivers those guys are all batshit crazy. There oughta' be a law against placing drivers into a time sensitive business model.
If you happen to be someone that books freight feel free to check the list if any of your carriers are at the occupation.

One man's freedom ends where another's begins.
Or, as Winston Churchill put it, "My right to swing my arm ends where my neighbour's nose begins".
the protesters seem to think they can just do whatever in the name of freedom and there will be no consequences, I am pretty sure the jan 6 crew didn't think it all thru either
I don't know how or when but i think shit will happen
There's mining trucks joining the convoy from somewhere. I can link up the tweet later but that'd require some level of corporate endorsement.
I think a lot of you no convoy types are underestimating the general support of the underlying idea. That being open us back up if masks and vaccines aren't as efficient or effective as we were told.
The level of stupidity on display is simply amazing.
A handful of the group’s organizers held a press conference on Facebook Live Wednesday that quickly devolved into a presentation on the popular form of cryptocurrency, confusing many of their supporters who were watching online.
“Are we at a press conference for Freedom Convoy 2022 or having some guy shove Bitcoin down our throats?” one commenter griped. “Very disappointed! I came to see updates about progress made by our Truckers.”
