Yes, I think being stuck in traffic is normal here because we all experience it daily, and if we think about all those people that are living without a roof on top of their heads, no shelter, no food, no medical treatment nothing at all..THIS IS NOTHING! People should stop complaining as if traffic is ruining their life, Its only for a few hours one day. People should think why is the protest happening, why are all these people getting days off work, school and other daily activities to come out and show support. I fully support these protests because its a fight for humanity nothing else. Its occurring to get the world to help and save innocent lives and to stop the war. The question itself is biased, like the world doesn’t seem to care about innocent people dying acting in a selfish manner, only if it happens to their family members people think of it as a problem, if not people think if as some nuisance. The faster the government and people help to stop this genocide, the less protests will occur.
So this should be allowed, there is no reason to stop this b/c compared to what tamil civilians are experiencing in sri lanka there is no stronger reason to stop it!
NO need for 680 to put vent your frustrations??? Traffic for a few hours is not frustrating compared to living on the streets and having no shelter, getting bombed and women getting raped randomly, and dying out of starvation ETC ETC!!!!
