In Florida, at least...

The law does allow a person to be cited for a pedestrian violation if
they “willfully obstruct the free, convenient, and normal use of a
public street, highway or road.” For instance, if a person stands or
remains on a street, highway or roadway, they would be in violation of
a section in state laws that would subject them to a $15 traffic
citation.

They need to add a few zeroes to that $15 traffic citation.

Meanwhile:

Florida: Florida has a law (HB 1, sometimes called the "anti-riot"
law) that provides an affirmative legal defense in civil lawsuits for
drivers who injure someone during a riot-related incident. While it
doesn't automatically prevent criminal prosecution, the state's "Stand
Your Ground" law could potentially bolster a driver's defense in
criminal cases if they reasonably believed they were in imminent
danger.

Oklahoma: Oklahoma has a law that protects drivers who kill or injure
protestors while "fleeing from a riot" if they believe they were in
danger.

Iowa: Iowa has a law that provides civil immunity in certain instances
for drivers who injure someone blocking traffic.

Tennessee: Tennessee has laws that increase penalties for obstructing
a highway or street and could allow a driver to be immune from civil
liability if they were exercising "due care" and the protester did not
have a permit to be in the street.

Louisiana: Louisiana has a law that gives legal protection to drivers
if they were blocking a road and "reasonably believed" they were in
immediate danger and were trying to "retreat or escape."

I don't live in an area where this sort of nonsense is tolerated, but
if I did I would probably get one of these
