Absolutely. They will find something else contrary to cling to.

The majority should just ignore them but I admit, it’s hard to at times and you find yourself getting dragged into threads on them.

If only we could create some vaccine we could spray over them whilst they protest.
 
Is there a cut-off point where it goes from being a protest to just being a nuisance?


Other people have a right not to have their lives put on hold indefinitely by the inconvenience caused.

Insulate Britain did actually take on board some of the opposition to their methods, suspended planned protests and went on non-friendly media organisations to put their point across.
 
C4 News just now - in Ottowa local resident not happy as they are "boxed in" by trucks. Supporter drives from Montreal to "offer her support " ( ie keep them here in Ottowa away from my house lol )

Trucker says he isn't going anywhere and is there for the long haul - just imagine how many other truckers are picking up his work. As an act of self destruction its going to be pretty effective

The truckers are blocking city streets - you put Police vehicles across intersections boxing them in leaving only footpaths clear - its not rocket science.
Your contract doesn't matter - it was reported on the news last night Go Fund Me were already refunding donations.
My right at birth was the freedom to roam and once qualified drive the city streets - these cry babies who are afraid of a needle are preventing me to avail myself of those fights.

Go fund Me will almost certainly fold they have started the process to refund where they can, your rights at birth to roam and drive where you want were denied by lock downs, these cry babies are fighting to get all your freedoms back

As COVID disappears what happens to jab mandates?, lets take Austria they have demonstrations everyday, a third of the country was unjabbed now it is a quarter, it has a population of 8.9 million they have ordered 44 million doses, personally i think the protesters will take heart over Denmark coming to it`s senses

Eventually vaccine mandates will be removed and everyone will get on with their lives regardless of vaccination status. Vaccine status is already irrelevant, at least in terms of infection because Omicron is increasingly able to infect the vaccinated. The main and sole reason to get vaccinated is to protect against serious illness/death.

Europe has already proven this over the last few months. They've had lockdowns for the unvaccinated and some countries have had vaccine mandates but not a single one of those policies has worked as they've all still experienced huge Omicron waves.

Happening in a number of locations across the globe - this bunch in Canada are flying Trump flags ffs - its R/W extremist bullshit - for me the easiest way to stop it is to block them in - they will run out of patience and diesel eventually then just keep them there and impound their trucks, their way of making a living, as they slope off tail between their legs. The selfishness of their actions is clear and I am sure that the population at large will support the authorities.

It’s a shame in some ways that the CFR of covid wasn’t more similar to 1918-20 so we could have cleansed the gene pool of these fucking idiots.

Of course people should get vaccinated for that reason but there's no reason to mandate it. If people want to take their chances then that should be their choice just as everything else 'dangerous' is.

Arguably alcohol and obesity will kill tens of millions more compared to COVID over the years. How many people are calling for alcohol and bad food to be banned? We know that cigarettes definitely cause cancer, you can still buy them.

There was once an argument for mandates based upon the idea that the vaccines prevented transmission (eg. the NHS mandate is for that reason) but certainly with Omicron the vaccines do not really prevent transmission.

Fair enough. But smoking and booze is massively taxed to pay for the cost of care that they cause though.

Not my freedoms - I have never been to Canada nor the USA nor do I have any desire to do so therefore the theoretical freedom I have to drive across the border doesn't bother me. In any event having had my jabs if I did wish to avail myself of that freedom I could do so except for the fact a load of morons are blocking my way.

Turning to the UK I am not sure what freedoms I am denied. For ages now I have basically gone about my business unhindered. Through the summers of the pandemic I have been able to take holidays in the UK in a location 320 miles from home.

The only real restrictions have been I have been unable to take holidays abroad because of restriction imposed by those pesky foreigners exercising sovereign control over their borders.

It’s not something I think about. I had the freedom to choose to be jabbed and did so months ago.

Granted, it took 45 mins out of my life to have all 3, but I still deem it a worthy enough use of my time to negate serious illness and/or death.

Farage confused - he is involving himself in sovereign Canadian politics - if the Canadians set a law thats what it is - a law - maybe if the Canadian authorities mandated it was no longer illegal to deflate the tyres of trucks blocking streets the freedom convoys would support that too?
