    My neighbors are more concerned about their drive time to work than any message protesters my have.

      Successful protests reach a scale and determination where this doesn’t matter.

      Don’t mean to be a doomer, if anything I am trying to show a realistic option beyond doomerism.

        A few of them are itching to run someone protesting down. They feel being slowed down by someone’s “bullshit” is justification.

          You have people like that everywhere.

          They’ll stop acting out when they understand there is a not insignificant risk that they will be on the losing side and there will be consequences in a independent court that won’t look kindly on their actions. That’s if they don’t get caught before that and get to experience a symmetrical response.
