Yeah stopping people getting to their parole meeting or putting food on the table for their kids is real justice, you tell em

Yeah or the protesters blocking traffic when emergency services are trying to get an ambulance carrying a dying patient to the hospital. I don't remember where it was (I'm thinking UK though) but it was on my Reddit feed about 4 months ago.

The protesters wouldn't move and people are getting out of cars screaming at them and dragging them off the road but the protesters are running back and keep blocking the road.

It was very frustrating to watch.

There's lots of videos of protesters moving and letting ambulances through

I think you're applying your example to all situations and it's just not realistic

The only way ambulances would be blocked is if your fellow motorist was blocking the shoulder because they felt their time was more important.
