People who block traffic to protest should be sued into oblivion for any damages.

The silly misdemeanors they get charged with are meaningless. Not sure if they ever get actually tried. These miscreants should face ruin.

First infraction: $500 fine
Second: $1,000 and 10 days in jail
keeps doubling from that point on

There are many ways to avail yourself of freedom of speech.

But blocking traffic and disrupting someone else's life, making them fear for their safety or delaying ambulances and fire trucks and other emergency vehicles is just as bad as yelling "fire" in a dark theater.

I disagree. I think people have a right to freedom of expression. @beckyromero

There's nothing to stop them from protesting on a public sidewalk without blocking others to businesses. Nothing to stop them from launching a website or writing letters to the editor, calling radio talk shows (or starting their own), writing to elected officials, handing out literature, etc., etc., etc.
