Instead of going to their local government, they deside to close a road....... if they want to be branded as idiots, this is a good way of doing that.

Yeah, why didn’t the American’s go to their government instead of protesting with the Boston Tea Party?

Rhe issue is that doing protests that way is not going to win sympathy from the people who is using the road.

Why didn’t the Americans protests differently to get sympathy from the British?

There are ways to protest, but this is not efecive especially for the people using the road
