I agree that the IC has become the 4th branch. The only possible checks to balance the system are the military and We The People. Both are significant entities.
If it's the military, they will know what to do.
If it's us, we're going to need one heck of a plan to coordinate and work together.
If 80 million people suddenly stop buying anything or stop/slow their vehicles in major traffic arteries, we can make an enormous impact peacefully. It would only take 3 or 4 vehicles in a row, side by side, to create massive traffic issues. Drive at 15 or 20 in a 65 as an example.
I don't like the options but peaceful disobedience has successfully taken down Communist countries in the past.
Bending the rules isn't for everyone. I'll freely admit, I may have been pulled over for speeding in the past. I'm not a reckless driver by any means, but I also don't drive the exact posted speed limit. Over many years of testing and asking police officer friends how much over the posted speed limit one can go before they pull you over and write a ticket, I've deduced the following formula.
"9 your fine, 10 your mine."
My personal belief is that this is due to the court system and fees. Typically, if you show up to court to contest a traffic ticket, the judge will knock you down from one fine bracket to the bracket below it. If you stay in the single digits, you stay in the lowest fine bracket. There isn't a lower bracket to lower your fine to without the court still collecting a fee from you. So, it is my impression that judges only want to be bothered with speeding that is 10 mph over or more.
I was testing this out a few years ago. I had my cruise control set at 79 in a 70. I passed a cop in the median and never touched the brake. He did happen to pull out and follow me after I passed him. I still didn't touch the brake or lower the speed.
Over the course of a few miles he slowly worked his way up through other vehicles and eventually he was right behind me. I still didn't lower my speed.
Well, he pulled me over.
He came up to my window and said, "Do you have any idea how fast you were going back there?"
I said, "Yes, sir, I was going 79."
Startled, and shaking his head in disbelief, he said, "Do you think that's okay?!"
I said, "Not anymore!"
Anyways, he gave me a warning and said, "Look, I'm not going to tell you you have to go 70 in a 70. I get it. But 79? Really? You have to keep it less than that."
I said, "Okay,will do. Thanks for just giving me a warning."
He said, "By the way, your speedometer is pretty accurate. I had you going 79."
So anyways, I proved to myself 9 your fine, 10 your mine, at least in my mind. I continue to go 9 over everywhere I go when I am on an open highway in the middle of nowhere.
How does this relate to going too slow to slow traffic down? I don't know, maybe we can go 9 below and live by 9 your fine, 10 your mine. Since most people go close to 10 over this would be a 20 mph reduction in their speed.
The goal is to let the government know we can protest them in very peaceful and practical ways that will drive people mad, just like the Honkers did in Ottawa.
I think the point is to let them know we are fully awakened and we're not going to take it anymore. Peaceful and crafty disruptions could be a great way to wake people up without doing anything illegal or breaking the law.
I got pulled over doing 75 in a 65 on a Calif. freeway. The cop asked me how fast I was going and I told him around 75 or so. After he ran my license/registraion he came back to me and said that I was the first honest person he has pulled over in months. Because of being honest he said he was only giving me a warning.
I have beaten 2 radar tickets in the past by proving them to be illegal radar speed trap. Improper zoning as residential on a country road, and another on a stretch of road without an engineering traffic report as required by law to set the speed limit.
Small town Texas here. There's a town, very close to me, who really got a name for themselves as a speed trap. I had a few invitations to the courtroom ball myself. In every case, I may have been 2 or 3 mph over limit, but always received a ticket for 12 to 13mph over. I lost my trust in cops at an early age. I fought every ticket with the fact they check speed with technology that is not available to my vehicle, therefore I cannot accurately pinpoint my speed with analog tech. But was well below the ticketed mph.
I hope to see some videos of these convoys like we saw of the Canadians. I don't expect the same reactions here in the US by the supporters, but maybe they will surprise me.
I do hope to see some silent "HONK! HONK!!" signs to go along with the audio versions from the trucks themselves.
If everyone legally drove 40 I can pretty much guarantee you a major point would be made. Especially if it is clear why it is happening. Of course, I would rather see such things occur in deep blue cities. Leave the rest alone.
This is an exercise in futility. I am a realist. 80M ppl could make a difference if they acted in unison, but they won't. Admit it, an election was stolen from the people, we have been divided by Politicians, manipulated by media and sicken by Pharma. For the most part Americas are soft and uninformed. Our military is weak, underfunded and obsolete. We are being beaten by a system put in place after 9/11. Those that control the system are immoral. IMO, destruction is coming. What we are dealing with is a communist movement intent on finishing the fundamental transformation of our nation promised by Barack Obama. No one was ever going to be arrested or held accountable. The entirety of our Republic is compromised in some controlling manner. No one can declassify, or make public, anything the Intelligence Branch will not agree to. Doubt this? Ask Ric Grenell, John Ratcliffe, or even President Trump himself.
I think a major point that is missed is that when you rip the weed out, some roots might get left behind and the weeds grow back. Many times in history these evil corrupt people just slipped out the backdoor with all of their wealth when the SHTF, that's why they love wars. We can't just shine the light on the cockroaches, they will scatter. Make sure the cockroaches are boxed in first and make sure not to miss any roots. Just an opinion/observation.
Americans are soft & uninformed? Maybe you should find a way to make a difference that doesn’t require sitting at a keyboard complaining about things not getting done.

Be cognizant of traffic rules for minimum speed limits, Lane limits, and emergency vehicle preferential treatment.
Just a hint.

There is only one way...
