Protesters block all lanes of westbound Bay Bridge for nearly 2 hours

Westbound traffic on the Bay Bridge was at a standstill Sunday evening for nearly two hours after all lanes were blocked by protesters.

Multiple local news outlets reported that protesters spray-painted "BLM," the initials to Black Lives Matter, onto the bridge in yellow before being stopped by authorities. There were no reports of violence. The CHP reportedly said it arrested some of the protesters, who were in a caravan of about 50 vehicles.

The backup began around 4:30 p.m. and continued for well over an hour. At 6:25 p.m., only a trickle of vehicles were moving past the protest scene in two lanes with a large CHP presence to the side *** By 7 p.m., more lanes had opened.

Because it's all about my needs, not yours. Doesn't matter if you are rushing to the hospital or maybe need to feed a baby in the car. BLM trumps everything! /sarc

It’s not a “protest” when you block traffic. It is a riot.

It’s not a “protest” when you block traffic. It is a riot.

And as such, it cannot be deemed peaceful if laws are broken.

Have they called it “peaceful” yet?

It seems to be acceptable to block traffic where I live without arrests, and call it “mostly peaceful”.

Keep voting Democrat.

Apparently BLM is, in fact, connected to the DNC.

I wonder if white folks blocked the entrances to say Popeye’s, and wouldn’t let anyone in, and shouted out “Chicken Lives matter”, if it would be called a ‘peaceful protest’?

Wouldn’t be awful if it collapsed from the weight of trucks, cars and busses.

CHP idling around playing pocket pool and watching the seagulls. Orders are orders.

I wonder if anyone who was held hostage for 2+ hours has the ability to file a civil rights complaint since local authorities refuse to?

All people have a limit to patience. And one thing causes someone to snap while another will wait a little more. Turning the other cheek until running out of cheeks.

Blocking major traffic area. Politicians taking a knee. Corporations siding with leftists to pretend they care. Supreme Court ruling CA criminal illegals and their pandering politician enablers do not have to obey the law (but we do????).

Wouldn’t it be tragic if a convoy of 18-wheelers mowed this trash down?
