I love it. The protestors thought they had a right to block this guys travel, as a result he got his bike trashed and he didnt hurt anyone (thankfully).. this guy is a hero! Considering all the videos I've seen of people trying to drive slowly through crowds getting their car trashed I'd say this guy is completely justified, even if it may have potentially injured a protestor (thankfully it didnt)
@penny The police already caught him, he is not being persecuted.
People have every right to the road, but the road is a shared resource what they dont have is a right to deny access to the road to others. If protesters want to cross the road or be in the road, they have that right, but only so far as they also permit others to use the road too.
@penny Yes they are your roads, just like they are roads belonging to the driver going about his business. **you** do not get to take the road away from other citizens.
In the case of blockading roads for events, that is usually done on side roads that are not critical for transportation, roads you can easily navigate around. If you are taking over a main road needed for people to get to work and the hospital and to live, then no, you do not have that right, they do not belong solely to you.
I 100% support what this person did, its his roads too and this barricade was not done in consideration of that as other sanctioned barricades are.
@penny When did I say he was going to the hospital? I said people use the roads to go to work and go to the hospital, even f he was just going food shopping, he has a right to do so, they are his roads too.
The people endangered themselves by putting a bike in his path and by not providing clear signs for an alternate route to begin with.
If you have the right as a mob to barricade a street and take it over then others have the same right to take it down. Thats the result when you rely on anarchy.
@penny I don't? I have friends who live nearby where it happened in portland. I do not say things if I dont have a reason to know them to be true Please dont tell me what I know.
@penny I didnt say I knew the protestors. I said I knew people who live near where this happened. Many were happy with what this guy did, some were not.. But everything I said so far about them not putting up detour signs or engaging in the proper safety prerequisites for a barricade are all true.
