I agree. Seems to me the point of a protest is to kick up a fuss so you get noticed.

It also seems to me the reaction to the fuss is proportional to how much you are in step with the protests point. I didn't see too many people getting too upset about massive Earth Day marches despite the disruption having a larger impact than CM.

Motorists don't mind ignoring traffic laws when everyone else drives in the same way, but a guy on a bike that slows a motorist down? Bad news.
