Would private ownership of roads make protests impossible, thus undermining the 1st amendment?

It would be extremely painful.

Well you can't protest on public streets without getting arrested already.

Private roads aren't necessary.
Just run the slime over and call 911 to report the accident.

You would rather live in a 3rd world country than be civil, it would seem

Ten of thousands of people are hit jaywalking every year.

Nothing comes of it, unless the drive doesn't stay at the scene.

What the fuck does blocking traffic accomplish but piss off thousands of your fellow citizens? You do know street protestors are basically imprisoning every one on the road, and it bears absolutely no relevance to whatever the protest is about, right?

private ownership of roads would hold the entire nation at ransom. imagine only certain brands of cars allowed on roads. you would have brands pay to have their cars have zero tolls similar to how internet companies make streaming companies to have their data not count toward caps.

>they can sue you in a civil court
>dont worry goy if you hire a right lawyers you will surely win

why even risk this shit?

Get a load of the guy.

Probably doesn't even meme.

>Roth

You're a pretty smart guy...

For liberty.

what are you talking about? the right to peaceably assemble means any public space. if all you did was privatize roadways for traffic, then there would still be sidewalks -- where you belong in the first place, protesting in the street is an arrestable offence even now -- forests and parks, city/town commons, government buildings and courtyards, landmarks, and so on, and so on.

>private ownership of internet2 fiber is holding the entire nation at ransom. imagine only certain sizes of packets allowed on certain routes. you would have to pay your ISP for internet access pay to have their packets have zero switches similar to how blah blah blah

For you

>muh civility!

Civility is a manipulation tactic of the left at this point. They so control the narrative that the insistence on civility has been perverted into political correctness, blocking traffic and preventing the free movement of people, etc.

>don't say mean words, that's toxic/triggering/racist/whatever

Meanwhile, leftists happily block roads, silence opposing speech, shame men for being men, etc.

I say fuck civility, introduce a little savagery back into western civilization. Let it be okay to punch someone in the face for being an asshole, let it be okay to shoot an intruder in YOUR OWN HOUSE, let it be fine to drive through a crowd of malcontents if you genuinely fear for your life.

Of all the things I could pay taxes for, roads would be one of them.

Why can't I choose what my taxes pay for?

btw for plebs who don't have I2, it's bretty fawkin awesome.

It really makes you wonder why people are forced to pay for like telco bills so they can have a little bit better than dialup.

Was getting caught part of your plan?

>i like being ripped off

since i live in a relatively free state instead of one of those socialist nightmares like vermont, i have the opportunity to use sections of a couple different toll roads and i pay attention to the price i pay for the distance i travel and what sort of time it can be done in. having ballparked it, i would gladly trade for 100% privatization. not only would i be paying less, the road quality would go up, and i'd also gain free roadside service provided by the toll road owner which i don't get from the government now.

I don't actually drive all that much and make a nice enough living that toll roads aren't really a concern when I have to use them. But if you want to try out having private roads then I'm all for it considering that it's a free country.

I grew up on a private road. Thank God it wasn't HOA style miserable, but it had its good parts and its bad parts.

My mother had a friend who hit and killed a Jay Walker at night in the rain.
He had to be interview, fill out some paperwork and basically it was over.
I mean he still feels really bad, but meh.

To answer the first question, no. To answer the second question, no.

If (that is IF) title 2 regulations were enforced in the US (and whatever the relevant regulations are in other countries), everyone end user has their data treated without discrimination, regardless of source.
The FCC is, of course, useless thanks to regulatory capture.
Private roads do exist. They just aren't profitable to build on the scale that public roads are.
A private toll road is being built near my city. However, you'd never know it was a private road, as it is being built to regular US interstate highway standards, and in any case, they can't discriminate based on car brand, drivers, etc. After a certain # of years (definitely over 30, I don't remember the exact #), it gets turned over to the state to be operated.

Of course, there are also private roads on private property, but yea, to try to turn over public roads to the private sector would make it impossible to maintain them, even if taxes were lowered to compensate. Tolls would just be too expensive.
