    Liberal truck drivers are few and far between, especially in the United States. I don't think we'd have much to worry about...

    You are talking about a crashed truck with a driver willing to let you latch onto it. That definitely would not be the case. Try latching onto and moving a 40+ ton truck with payload with 18+ tires to the ground and the brakes locked up and disabled....

    Unlike the liberal protesters in Portland, these truckers are letting emergency vehicles through...

    drivers that don't want to let you do it, can be arrested and removed... simple

    if the truck needs to be dragged off the road ruining it, so be it

    90% of Truck drivers got the vaccine, so not an issue for them

    only an issue for those crossing the border

    but at least you're admitting this is political

    In the oilfield, we haul loads up to 140 tons. There isn't a tow truck on this planet that could pull that out of the way with the brakes locked up...

    Again, not that simple. If I don't want you to move my truck, or remove me from it, you aren't going to, short of lethal force. Period.

    yep, police have no issue removing people obstructing justice from a Truck

    to test this all one has to do is take a truck out and stop in front of a police station, blocking them, see how long it takes them to move them, trust me, they will be moved

    Again, by force. Now, multiply that by 200+ trucks. You'd have entire precincts tied up...

    And that's what the truckers want the world to see, the Candian government resorting to force of violence against protesters that are doing nothing but sitting there...

    nope, just start at the front and as the ones behind see that they are going to jail and their trucks are being impounded, they will leave on their own

    if this is allowed to go on, will see a lot more of this in the future from both sides

    Some might, I wouldn't. That just like if the government decided to confiscate weapons. Some would, but the vast majority (myself included) would not...

    Oh well, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. They had no problem with BLM looting, rioting, setting police precincts on fire, burning local businesses (some of which were black-owned), destroying public and private property, etc...

    yep, if the right can block traffic for days, don't whine when the left does it

    Please follow along. Healthy humans that have had CV-19 are being told by the Government, against the Science, to take a vaccine they don't need, or they lose their livelihood.

    The government doesn't control them now or in the past. Most forget that the government works for us, not the other way around.
    And if they are attacked, they will fight back. But they won't be the instigators.

    Isn't that what the left did already. Blocking traffic on interstates whining over an election. The police weren't even able to remove them and you think they are going to get in a trucker fight?

    It's how those Leftists think... it's really about controlling others. I wonder if they actually realize what they are saying and supporting, or if they just haven't thought it through?

    Just how do people get to this reality that the government is there to take care of them, make all their decisions, while telling them how to live.
    Its like they have this mommy complex.

    so you don't mind if the left parks on a road in your neighborhood for days and days blocking you from getting to work?
