Truckers need to refuse deliveries to cities overrun by BLM.
They are the only solution that is likely to work. Force the states to make blocking the freeway illegal and protect people who run them over from lawsuits and charges. Starve them out .
I remember a few months ago, towards the end of the run on toilet paper, some guy posted on Twitter that anyone with more than 2 weeks of supplies in their home should be fined heavily. We should probably encouraging people to keep at least 2 months worth on hand instead.
The modern free market is an amazing thing, but if people take it for granted it does make things unnecessarily fragile.
I was raised in a Mormon household, although I haven't been active in the church for years. Back when I was growing up, church leaders would encourage members to keep a year's worth of canned foods in storage in case of natural disaster or financial hardship.
Yeah, that's the issue--trucking companies rely on cities for survival, eventually they'll pressure drivers by various means to drive so they can stay afloat or at least cut losses. To make a siege work you need to deal with this somehow.
If it gets dangerous enough then they'll have to pay drivers so much it won't be profitable. But unless that happens, yes, a "siege" is just wishful thinking.

I saw a post saying that without truck drivers making deliveries, the average large city in America would run out of food in 3 days.
Yep, everything operates on "Just In Time" inventory these days.
Then people would really go bananas

Starving them out ought to be an option.
My Dad’s company still wants him to do runs to the Walmart in Minneapolis.
