    Stinks to see ambulances stuck in traffic because some kids didn’t consider the consequences of their actions, though.

    Don’t mess with critical infrastructure to “send messages”. Roads can be very critical, to many people.

    Edit: I’m down voted for thinking ambulances and fire trucks should be able to reach their destination? Holy cow… What does one do for upvotes around here, blow up hospitals?

      That’s why you are having the same attitude towards cars. They also create traffic jams, blocking ambulances.

        And if you’re child/significant other died as a direct result of someone glueing themselves to a road, would you genuinely be ok with that? Would that be a worthwhile loss of life for the cause? Because somehow, I find that incredibly hard to believe.

          You are correct. I would not be okay with that. I would be furious and hateful against the people responsible. The politicians that do nothing, making these protests necessary in the first place.

      I’m not sure why you’re being downvoted so much either tbh. I completely support protest, but let’s not fuck up everyone’s day and potentially kill people for it. Yes, climate change is a genuine threat, but don’t risk the people’s lives.

      If people want to protest, do it in the middle of a city, do it outside a government building etc. There are ways to inconvenience people and get your message across without risking life

      Yep, these kids are trust fund babies with no idea what they’re doing and no personal responsibility. Their parents taught them that
