I've seen it claimed that the cops are the ones that shutdown the bridge in NY, not sure if thats accurate. There was a turnpike elsewhere that very much was shutdown by Trump supporters. I'm anti randos closing down roads and highways in general.

From a personal safety standpoint, doing so in vehicles during daylight is safer for everyone involved than pedestrians at night. Still something they should be cited for and otherwise discouraged from doing.

What? I am just glad it's getting attention.

Where did I assume something?
