    She literally got herself arrested and drew attention to the fact that you can be arrested for blocking delivery robots. Seems equivalent to chaining yourself to a truck full of cows. She demonstrated robots have more of a right to our sidewalks than we do.

      Yes. You can also be arrested for blocking traffic.

      Do you think my doing so would make people sympathise with my anti-car stance?

        If that traffic was driving over our sidewalks? Yes, as evidenced by all the people who support her and are outraged by her arrest.

        I notice you haven’t actually explained what she should do. I think you’re just being stubborn and don’t want to admit you’re wrong.
