A Martin Luther King Jr. Day protest that blocked traffic on the San Mateo Bridge during the evening commute also caused several crashes, authorities said Wednesday.

Protesters describing themselves as Stanford University students and carrying banners and a Palestinian flag were dropped off in the middle of seven-mile span just before 5 p.m. Monday and shut down westbound traffic for more than an hour.

Protesters on the bridge. Throw them off the bridge. I don't what's the problem.

Some poor working man trying to get to or from work and gets held up by Stanford University students who parents are paying $40 grand a year to go to school. The 1% oppressing the 99% where's the outrage?

Wow. A Palestinian flag just two weeks after Paris?

What were they going to do afterwards? Head off to a kosher deli and waste a few of the Evil Jooz?

Charming. Stanford anti- semitism. Wheres the SPLC?

arrest these Aholes.

as for Stanford University, watch to see if it expels these Aholes or not.

if so, Fine!

if not, cut Stanford out of your donation and estate plans.

there are PLENTY of good, decent, honorable colleges and charitable causes we can give to!

In some areas, the police just let these people block traffic as long as they aren’t violent. Its a complete abdication of the police function. If you or I were walking along the highway, you can be damn sure a cop would arrest us or at least escort us off ASAP. But these special little activists have their own set of rules because they are protesting. Its BS.

They don’t have to work for anything, why should they care what happens to the 99%?

Those nuts who carried the Palestinian flag support terrorism and need a nice elixir of lead and copper OTM from 300 yards on the opposite side of the span.

Can they be held liable for the accidents? Can the insurance companies file claims against the protestors? Now that would be interesting

Liberals and Muslims, seems to be the usual combination anymore . I guess because they both have a common enemy: Jew and Christians

How many are Jewish?!

Can you imagine? Some are probably putting in millions with this atrocity going on.

When I read this I immediately had visions of the Blues Brothers and the Nazi wannabes.

Those protesters are generating votes for Cruz—just as their forbears in the ‘60’s generated votes for Reagan for governor and and Nixon for president.

And here's the triumphant crap from Stanford Daily:

Students shut down San Mateo-Hayward bridge; 68 people arrested, 11 jailed

Note that it's a twofer. They also claim the U.S. is oppressing Mexicans in Mexico.

I guess by the fact that we still haven't handed over all the other Southwestern states besides California.

i have no idea who may be Jewish or not in this group

but it wouldn’t be a surprise if some were

given that Jewish Suicide Syndrome is still a very real phenomenon among some socalled Jews

either way, my focus is on Stanford University..
will it harbor and protect these criminal scum?
if so, cut Stanford out of your will and donations program, right away! Give your money to deserving schools, there are still sone good schools where your money won’t go for trash like this
