PROTESTERS TAKE TO THE HIGHWAY, WON'T LEND YOU THEIR LANES

It's a song, look it up.

James Taylor. Seriously.

Anywho, this happened in my home state of Massachusetts today...

A-holes protest in the middle of the busiest highway ever to tell people they don't like racism.
93 is like a wicked busy highway, guy.
Nobody LIKES racism... except racists. Even mildly racist people or those who don't even know they're racist don't admit to liking racism, so that's a nifty message, you're against it. Cool. I'm against littering, words that start with silent letters (pterodactyl, really??) and the NY Yankees, but I'm not going to protest about it in the middle of a busy highway. Mostly because I value my life and also I'm not a d-bag.

I'm a big proponent of peaceful protest. There are several key social turning points in our great nation that have come about because of it. This won't be one of them. Disrupting a whole traffic system so your voice can be heard is selfish and it just makes people focus on you being a dillhole instead of your actual message. Fail. In a completely unrelated way, it also makes me want to run through your sign and throw my arms up in victory; Lord knows I won't actually win any real races. But I digress.

Before you protest, ask yourself: Will I be effing up someone elses life to get my message across? If the answer is yes, then find a new place to do it. Or just lead by example with your non-racism instead of standing there looking like a clown with your sign making everyone late for work. Jerk.

**Edit**

And then I read this...

Didn't really think this one through, did you?
