The Canadian truckers also seemed to think the government would come right out and meet with them, and they were indignant when that did not happen.

Hawley, Cruz, Gaetz, Boebert, Greene, Brooks, and others of that ilk would entertain them.

except when I'm speeding past in another lane. We're too busy making time to bother honking at rocks in our road.

meeting people come out to greet and feed them, feeling they were doing something meaningful, and so on. I guess I hope they got back to camp before their gear got wet, their visits to DC remain positive with plenty of warm fuzzies, and they return home the same way.

Too soon to hope maybe, but fingers crossed that the worst that comes out of this is a few newly inspired to extend their activism into a run for for congress.

Morning rush is all too often markedly slower than that pace.

Keep it up, you dumbfuck assholes. Making your mark with the effectiveness of a fart in a windstorm.

Go goobers.

apparently doesn't realize that the Hagerstown Speedway is just a gas station/convenience store.

Not an actual "Speedway" like Indi.

We don't want the government to tell us to wear masks!
Answer -Okay. CDC says it's optional.
We don't want the government to tell us to get vaccinated!
Answer - Well, that's up to your employer or other businesses or counties, who have that right to require proof of vaccination to do business with you.
We don't want the government to tell us what to do!
Answer - What the ever-lovin' f*** do you mean by that? This is a big country with a lot of different people, and there has to be some set of rules that everyone has to follow just so we don't cheat, injure, or kill each other on a whim. This also allows a majority of people to have some chance to live safely in the Real World.
Did you fail Pre-School? Do you think acting with the emotional maturity of a three year old makes you seem all grown up?

Sheesh. If it weren't for the fact these people still have driver's licenses, it would be funny. Now it's just pitiable and a bit scary that so many of them are showing their asses in public.
