BOSTON — State police say a group of protesters has blocked a busy Boston area highway at the height of the morning commute.

Police say in response they have shut down Interstate 93 north at East Milton Square south of the city, and I-93 south at Mystic Avenue north of the city.

A state police spokeswoman says some protesters have chained themselves to highway barriers.

The spokeswoman did not know what the people were protesting, but broadcast outlets say one person is holding a sign that reads "united against racism."

Instead of running them over, I’d be really horrible to them. Rush comes on at noon, I’d make them listen to Rush for all 3 hours.

Soros is throwing his money down the drain again here - all this bs will do is to further annoy people.

I was talking to my Mom (88 years old, lives in Quincy) and BOTH her visiting nurse and physical therapist were unable to come to her house today because of this very thing. She was very upset, as this direct patient care is part of her health and well being. She was just discharged home after a three month hospital/nursing home stay on Jan. 8th.

So...two people at least were denied access to their livelihoods, and one elderly, frail senior citizen was denied healthcare.

Because of these clowns.

And...I know the area. If you can’t get through East Milton Square you are in trouble.

An ambulance had to divert from the Level 1 trauma center they wanted to go to. These proteagers need to do some serious time in prison.

A total of 29 people were arrested at the two protest sites. They were expected to be arraigned later Thursday

Simple solution - change the laws.

Blocking an interstate will carry a hundred dollar fine for the first infraction - and a thousand dollar fine each time after that.

Then tell the 'turnips' (can't get blood out of turnip) the money will be deducted from their 'disability' checks - or other government checks... or IRS 'refund'...

Please tell me there is snow on the ground there!

Surprisingly no. But it's fk'ng cold. I wish the cops would come out with water cannons and douse the fatties, and then leave them there.

The protesters can’t help it. They have been BRED to have low IQ’s.

Appears that way. I want to see their names.

Howie Carr's trying to get their names, addresses and university affiliation, if any from the State Police. He says he'll post them on HowieCarrShow.com and pass them on to the Herald.

Do they still delouse prisoners anymore? I think this group could use a good delousing and a frontal lobotomy just for kicks.

To: left that other site

I live in Quincy, used to live in the neighborhood up by Carroll Movers overlooking the highway right outside the the square. I used some back roads to see if I could get up to see what was going on but there were state troopers on the overpass too, so I turned around.

So sorry about your Mom not getting the care she needed today. The daughter of the man whose ambulance was diverted to a lower level hospital was “livid” we hear. More info tomorrow. Hopefully not protests!

Wow...thank you! Please keep in touch. Carrol Movers is far enough away from East Milton Sq, that there should have been access. That is just awful.

“Do they still delouse prisoners anymore? I think this group could use a good delousing and a frontal lobotomy just for kicks.”

The “delouse” idea is financially viable, especially as DDT is now legal again.

However, the idea of a prefrontal lobotomy is not viable in this economy - have you priced the cost of microsurgery?

PRETENDING is the right word to use. Puff some weed...over and over....and just feel involved in something.
