You can't justify breaking the law by claiming it is for the greater good, and blocking traffic is breaking the law. Whether you agree with it or not, this is how the world works.

If you hate the food at a restaurant you don't spit in everyone elses plates. Not only is it illegal, it is detrimental to the message you're trying to spread. Find a different method to make your voice heard instead of being probably the most hated type of illegal protester in the world.

Fucking lol, real first world problems over here.
You're saying "it is what it is", but what you're actually saying is this is how it should be while others are arguing it should not.
Change the law and your argument evaporates.
