"People's Convoy" - U.S. Trucker Protest
People's Convoy Organizer to Newsmax: US Trucker Protest Hits the Road Wednesday
Quote:
The "People's Convoy," the United States' trucker protest against COVID-19 mandates, will hit the road on Wednesday on its trip from California across the nation, with about 1,000 trucks expected to start the trip and more to join in as the convoy heads east, Maureen Steele, the national organizer of the effort, confirms to Newsmax.
"We're going to be starting the convoy out of Barstow, California," Steele told Newsmax's Eric Bolling on "Eric Bolling The Balance," adding that the specific location in Barstow will be announced closer to the event because the concern for operational security is "paramount."

The organizers, on the website, said the organization is demanding that the "declaration of a national emergency concerning the COVID-19 pandemic be lifted immediately and our cherished Constitution reign supreme."

Barstow isn't that big. They will go on the 15 or 40. Loads of trucks on both of them all the time.

Mountie resigns from Trudeau and speaks out.
What will our police do, when some (not all are headed there) of the 'People's Convoy' arrive at our own capital?
From the comments:
"Damn I feel this mans pain, as he is torn between his love of duty and his responsibility to his community and the tyrannical tactics the police are being told to use to quell citizens rising up for their freedoms. He gives us all hope."
"Unfortunately he's resigning, He's exactly what they need in the Law Enforcement services! A man of conscience and integrity!"
"This is actually one of the most damaging aspects of such a climate. People of integrity depart or are forced out from institutions, and what remains is a super-concentrated grouping of people who have no problem with doing such things to other people, and are now in sole control."

Haven't most COVID restrictions been lifted? Here in NYC they aren't even mandating masks in school any longer.
These COVID mandate protests seem pointless at this point.
The Canadian truckers seem like they got the job done.

Organizers of a People’s Convoy are demanding President Joe Biden end the national emergency originally declared during the pandemic in addition to scrapping any remaining mandates related to Coronaviruses.

Some things changed mid way. Can't blame them for wanting to complete their goal, regardless.
"Return America's freedom to us."

And what better way to restore those freedoms than to drive around the beltway all day (or cry about it every day on a message board).

Would rioting and looting be the better way?

The restoring I want is items on the shelves where I shop.
Enough of this crap. Get back to work.

A lot, if not all, of their expenses are being paid for by donations from patriots. Too bad you aren't one!

So very self-centered of you. 
Why are you hiding where you live and shop?
