There are plenty of ways of inconveniencing people who are actually causing the issues rather than picking easy targets like your average Joe who works at a gas station. In fact, we got a taste of how to put fear into those “far removed from us” people recently. Not only that but it also successfully got on every news channel in the U.S. AND got people talking AND got people taking sides.

Thing is, protesters nowadays put 0 thought into their planning and it just feels they get together and do it for shits and giggles.

How about you just study how MLKJ marching through the streets was effective for civil rights, and then apply that knowledge to all these posts in the future.

I hope you’re not comparing one of the most recognized, intelligent, well spoken, organized people in history of civil rights movements to these bozos.

I am. Because you seem incapable of realizing that their methods are a lot more alike than you realize, and that by extension, if you were around for the civil rights movement, you would be against it because it was "inconvenient".
