I've said this before, but I hate hate hate hate blocking of highways and major streets as a form of protest.

That is not peaceful protest. It is forcing innocent people to be captive audiences for your cause, and also blocking emergency vehicles from saving lives. Peaceful protest means you are not threatening or harming the safety or movement of people in the area of protest.

Similarly, if I walk into a restaurant, pull out a gun, and demand that people all sit there for 6 hours and listen to my "protest", it is not peaceful, even if the gun is not loaded.

There is an easy solution here:

1) Warn people on the road that they have 10 minutes to disperse or face tear gas

2) Tear gas the fuck out of everyone who doesn't leave

Also the solution to police brutality is mandatory bodycams plus weakening the police union.

Let it all be seen, and let the bad cops get removed and/or prosecuted for their misbheavior. Do not punish the good officers for the actions of a bad few, and do not lower the threshhold for when police get involved in criminal activity.

This happened with bodycams in an area of the country with by far the weakest union strength including police unions. Most police who get prosecuted for ANYTHING get off with qualified immunity, and the idea that a bad few spoil the whole bunch is nonsense when the good multitudes refuse, time and again, to police the bad few. They protest themselves first, always. The second is far behind.

The idea that good officers get punished for anything, ever, is nonsense, since most of the time the bad officers aren't punished for anything at all.
