"Protest peacefully and keep the goods moving don’t be like BLM or antifa and block roads and trample on other’s Constitutional rights."
And for Goodness' sake, DON'T throw any tea in the water.
Unfortunately, NOT doing anything that would be construed as trampling on others' rights is how we've gotten into this predicament. I'm not advocating violence, but how much of a beat-down are the citizens supposed to take? Even here in The U.S.A. we're supposed to be a Representative Republic. But what to do when the representatives no longer represent the governed? Look at how the government protects itself, but allows rampant crimes against the citizens. E.g. protecting The Capitol vs. the Southern Boarder.
Blockading may not be the best answer. Heck, it may not even be the right answer. But, notice the dictates that are coming down? The governments (in Canada and U.S.A) are not even negotiating with opposing points of view, they're saying do it their way or suffer.
To all who say we can't win these battles I say; THANK GOD the Patriots of 1776 didn't give up so easily!
I agree with this so much. I remember back when people were complaining about the BLM protests/riots the side that agreed with them said that protests were supposed to be disruptive to get people to pay attention. And yet when the other side is disruptive they are asking why the government isn't calling in the military.
Electric APUs have started gaining acceptance. These electric APUs use battery packs instead of the diesel engine on traditional APUs as a source of power. The APU's battery pack is charged when the truck is in motion. When the truck is idle, the stored energy in the battery pack is then used to power an air conditioner, heater, and other devices
That’s not what they said in the beginning.
And it isn’t stopping the virus or the spread, nor the severity in many cases (30-40%).
It's not meant to stop the spread,
You are wrong! Know what the hell you are talking about before you start spreading the garbage you heard on the news. I worked in Public Health and we did not immunize the public to "lessen the severity of their symptoms." It irritates the sh** out of me when I read or hear ignorant people make these types of statements. A vaccine is to PREVENT a disease. It is NOT given to "lessen the severity of symptoms." You are merely parroting the propaganda of those who are trying to push a worthless "vaccine" upon the public.
It's not meant to stop the spread, just to reduce the chance of getting severe symptoms in case you do get it. I'm not gonna bother arguing about the vaccine, that poor dead horse has been beaten beyond recognition. But anyway, that's why I said it doesn't matter to me if someone gets the shot or not, just stay away from my kids. Hell I don't even want vaccinated people getting near my kids if I can help it. Be glad with all this craziness is done with
Believe what you want to believe kind sir.
He’s really not wrong. The vaccine is pretty much worthless. It doesn’t prevent you from getting it. It doesn’t prevent you from spreading it. So what’s the point of this mandate for a vaccine if all it does is supposedly lesson the symptoms? Seems pointless to me. It’s all about power and a money grab.

You have every right to do what you think is best for your family. I respect that👍👍👍
That's the only point Im trying to make. I only want what's best for my kids. If that means trying a vaccine or staying home more than so be it. Like I said previously, I don't care what others do with their bodies. Yet people feel the need to get offended and attack for some reason? We can sit in here and argue the effectiveness of the vaccine and mask all day, will literally go nowhere. I'm much more interested in people's trucking questions and experiences.

With a hot-button topic like this it is easy for people to automatically assume that if your opinion differs from theirs, that you are saying they are wrong. I can't condemn people for feeling as strongly about this issue as they do. Nor can I say they are wrong for vehemently defending their opinions.
Disagreements can be handled positively. I don't necessarily agree with you - and I might choose to let unvaccinated people come around my children (if I had any) but, that does not mean we can't treat each other with respect. Just bc our former president attacked anyone opposed to his point of view doesn't mean we all have to act that way. AND...Just bc our current president is a bumbling fool doesn't mean we all have to act that way either😁
When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.

Excellent post, R/D. Lewie kinda hits it 'spot on,' too .... : Lewie Pugh, OOIDA Interview.
