1. I hate these type of protests....

Because they are not targeted. Instead, they cause problems for people that may otherwise agree with them.

Stupid, stupid....

4. Amen

It just pushes those on the fence towards the other side.

2. While they have a right to protest, as someone who's been caught in these kinds of jams before,

All I can say is Grrrrrrrrr.

8. Not if they are breaking traffic laws

They don't have the right to do that.

3. Climate change is my #1 issue, but I'm not sure how this is helpful.

It's super annoying when conservatives do it, and it impacts at least people who aren't at fault. People lose jobs and wages when they are late to work.

5. You have to wonder if it is anarchists

or a false flag. It is so strategically stupid.

6. Some folks are avoiding transit because of what happened in Brooklyn

and DC metro has plenty of problems. So while I sympathize with climate change activists, I hate this type of protest and don't believe it's productive.

7. So who in Democratic leadership is actually supporting protests like this?

We allow the right to beat us over the heads by the actions of the far left out of mainstream of Democratic thought. Shouldn't our democratic leadership be denouncing these protests and advocating for the arrest and prosecution of the protestors. Will we lose more votes than we gain if the leadership acts in that fashion?

Middle of the roaders are sitting on the fence. We let the GOP pull them to their side with the fears of defunding the police and silence on the lawlessness going on in some of the protests. At protests if someone breaks or steals something we should be very publicly turning them in if at all possible. Mark them out and segregate them from the group.

9. I have met a few of these types of people back when I was on college....

Mostly animal rights activists. In general, they don't have a political ideology and are pretty much single-issue voters (presuming that they vote).
