5 pm is a waste of time as you know, If you were serious you would block the morning work commute just like in San Francisco!

Because that is super constructive
Stop people from getting to work and they will want to stop the war.
Blocking traffic at any hour is a waste of time, unless ur protesting against cars. The people in the cars will just get pissed off and not listen. Critical mass is going to bring people together with similar beliefs, get people motivated and inspired, hand out fliers and talk to people, changing a few minds that way sounds better than stopping a few motorists from getting to work to me.

its lucky the activists in San Francisco have a bit more courage
