Comment on Iraq War was preceded by the largest worldwide non-violent protests in history and the war happened anyway.

Even just for something as mundane as protected bike lanes, I’ve found through personal experience that just a couple instances of direct action against motorists who tried to park in them was infinitely more effective than years of begging peacefully for barriers.

    Haha, the crossing is funny.
    
    I’ve seen the other two & I just wish some laws would be passed making it legal to damage cars in a bike lane.
    
    To circle back to the main topic - Americans should be required by law to disclose how likely they are to murder anyone involved when writing a claim to their insurer. Same thought process as the crossing with a brick.
