The scolding in S.E. Cupp’s latest column, “Some pro-Palestinian protesters are unserious, and only hurt their cause,” is an old saw that reliably makes the rounds when people dare to protest ongoing bloodshed here at home or elsewhere in the world.
The nature of protest is that it lies outside typical avenues of debate and objection. It is meant to draw attention and interrupt the status quo. I’d argue that blocking interstate traffic is the opposite of unserious. It is high-visibility and requires careful planning.
