Costa Rica on strike!!

This country is a mess since yesterday......trucks, taxis, buses and the like are blocking off just about every major road and lots of small ones too.

They are protesting something, I'm not quite sure what but some fee they pay for car inspections or something....

Tomorrow morning, gas stations will start not having any gasoline to pump to further the cause.

The thing is, there is NO army here, so no one can do anything about it. Try ramming one of these guys and you'll prob get shot for your efforts heh

What I found funny though was I was coming home from the movies and was talking with the taxi guy...taxis blocking off all roads around the mall. I asked him how the protest was going, he laughed and said they were bored not much work tonight so decided to block off these streets for fun

What a country
