Dozens of protesters cited, released after stopping traffic on the Bay Bridge
NBC Bay Area ^ | November 16, 2023 | By NBC Bay Area staff

Dozens of protesters on Thursday shut down the westbound lanes of the Bay Bridge for roughly four hours, demanding that President Joe Biden call for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war.

Police, sheriff's deputies and California Highway Patrol units responded to the scene and detained the protesters. The San Francisco Sheriff's Office said roughly 80 protesters were cited and released.

At least five tow trucks were at the scene towing away at least 15 protesters' vehicles. The CHP said the drivers of those vehicles tossed the keys into the bay.

Should’ve had the cars they used seized as asset forfeiture.

Should have brought a crane then dumped the cars into the water.

Charge them all with false imprisonment for those stuck on the bridge in their cars.

Oh wait, they’re Democrat voters in a Leftist hellhole. They won’t be ever be charged.

“The University of California, San Francisco said the backup on the bridge triggered hospital staffing shortages, forced cancellations of elective surgeries and resulted in major delays for three patients waiting for organ transplants. Doctors said those delays may now impact patient recovery.

UCSF said it was not the only hospital impacted, adding that even though the bridge reopened, the fallout was likely to have an impact through the evening. “

They should be in jail for endangering the lives of a lot of people.

Maybe they should throw the cars into the bag too. 😊

They were probably released because it is a misdemeanor citation.

The real punishment is having daddy go down to the impound lot and forking over hundreds of bucks to get Tiffany’s beemer back. Then there’s the locksmith fee.

Why did it take four hours for LE to deal with the problem? The bridge should have been cleared much more quickly than that.

Just push then over the edge. They promote the extinction of the human race. They should be given the opportunity to provide an example of just how committed they really are
