The truckers see vaccine passports as an oppressive government action, and people getting killed by police officers as no big deal. The BLM protesters see police killings as an oppressive government action, and vaccine passports as no big deal. See the issue here? We as a society need standards for behavior that don't just boil down to "if you think it's justified then you can do whatever you want".
Er, you don't know truckers think people getting killed by police officers is "no big deal". That appears to be something you just made up right now, as there's no obvious way you could possibly know that for sure. Or do you have some specific evidence, like a poll of the truckers on what they thought of BLM last year?
>Er, you don't know truckers think people getting killed by police officers is "no big deal".
I agree that "no big deal" was an overstep, but the argument works fine with "is justified"/"is not justified".

Unfortunately not, but based on this poll[1] and demographic factors of truckers (ie. less likely to be college educated, more likely to be republican), it seems pretty reasonable to conclude that most truckers oppose BLM.
