Comment on It appears you no longer have the right to protest | First Dog on the Moon
Gorgritch_umie_killa@aussie.zone 5 hours agoAfter reflection i suppose you’re right. The outcomes are different, one car in my way on the freeway is there to protest, the other car in my way on the freeway is there to AFL. Very different outcomes there… *
^*Maybe we should ban all cars but mine? Am I crazy, or would that solve my problem?^
I suppose totally different messages being sent though: one is, ‘i care about this thing and you’re also gona have to for a bit’; the other is, ‘i care about this thing and you’re gona need wait’. Theres a nuance there.
Sadly there is one unavoidable outcome :) MUZZA DOESN’T MAKE HIS COURT APPEARANCE!! The judge. is. ropeable…

Saying that traffic caused by an afl game is in any way the same to highways and roads being abruptly blockaded by protesters shows you’re not here for an actual discussion.

Uh oh… rumbled. ;)
Of course i’m not. I am satirising. Because your suggestion, and the implications of which, are ridiculous from the outset. The only sane response is to satirise the idea in the vain hope that through the equivalences drawn the ideas own ridiculousness is laid bare. In a bit of a ‘the emperor has no clothes’ kind of moment.
Have a good day mate. Lets protect freedom together in our own ways.

My suggestion? Of letting people protest?

… in the corner; out the way; down the street; where it can’t be heard… etc it doesn’t matter the caveat.
The suggestion that other people shouldn’t have to deal with protestors on the road, because “they’re in the way”. Well shit, the AFL is in my way! And they’re playing for a good half a year or more as well. Point is, certain things people do, especially on our roads, are gonna annoy others.
