Since the truckers blocked the US-Canada border crossing, can this protest now be classified as a violent demonstration?
The "Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project" classified 93% of BLM protests as peacefull. Blocking of roads was NOT considered peacefull protest; it was considered "violent demonstrations" .
So that would make the whole trucker protest 'violent demonstration', yet I have the feeling that the same folks who were eager to scoff at BLM protests as being overwhelmingly peacefull will give a pass for these truckers.
