Proving their bravery through civil disobedience that has almost zero chance of any serious repercussions… Ooohhh , how brave.
You know, it’s a shame that we ruin these young people’s show of courage by not truly exposing them to potential danger through their actions. If we allowed them to truly risk getting their assets handed to them, the. Their protests would have meaning as opposed to sounding like petulant tantrums of less significance than my 4 year old child’s meltdowns.

I wholly agree with both of you and, for the most part, Horace. The yobs that occupied downtown Ottawa and the border crossings two years ago over their imagined constitutional and human rights, were similarly motivated and equally politically illiterate as this current lot, and set out to create the same mayhem. Why? Because they could.
A whiff of grapeshot is what they all need.

I thought the protesters in Canada were all right-minded lovers of freedom? I'm pretty sure that's how they were described by a number of people, some of whom may even have even posted here, and it was the Canadian government that was clearly in the wrong.

I've never heard the word "yobs" other than as spoken by @renauda. I have no idea what the actual definition is, but it seems to fit these asshats perfectly.
"Asshat" = "Yob?"

Do a google image search for "yobbo."

"Dozens..."
How many "dozens?" One? Twelve?
Ah, about two...
At least they weren't parading...
ETA: Or gluing themselves to the pavement.
