Americans nationwide are protesting the grand jury decision to not indict Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson for the shooting death of Michael Brown. During the morning rush hour on Wednesday, some University of California San Diego students blocked a major freeway in La Jolla, Calif., a move that angered many commuters who were trying to get to work. One man went as far as physically pushing a protester out of the way and taking the bullhorn he was using.
Tyree Landrum, one of those commuters who was on his way to work at a local Ross store, expressed his anger to ABC10: I got to go to Ross right now, homie. If I dont get there, Im going to get fired. Ive got six f*cking kids to feed, homie m*therf*ckers get shot every f*cking day. Deal with it the right way, not like this.
Landrum got out of his car and pushed a protester, who was shouting through a bullhorn, no justice, no peace, to the side of the road, and took the bullhorn from him.
Hey, I feel you; we aint got no justice either, Landrum said. Im about to lose my job, and you guys are out here protesting?
Another commuter said the protesters dont really know anything about the real issue, and are complaining about something that could be dealt differently. One woman, a nurse, shouted, arrest them!
The drivers rejoiced when the police showed up, and one man yelled, youre spending the night in jail! Thats right, youre spending the night in jail tonight!

I think this crap began with the "fake chase" of OJ Simpson. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems that was the precursor for all the namby-pambyism we see.
Tyree’s mother must have been a John Wayne fan. As that was nne of his favorite names in his movies. Sounds western.
I would too, if he'd clean up his potty mouth.
Freeway is CHP jurisdiction.
As one of my old catholic school nuns once told me: “Young man, never discount the spiritually transforming experience of pain’’.
They blocked the boondoggle of our stupid streetcar in Tucson last night. It was shut down from 7:30 pm on. The city council that wasted money on this “alternative” transportation will to brace themselves, because these anarchist will make it their pet project their target from now on.

I am San Diego Proud today too!
Meanwhile, tonight in Fergadishu:
Only about 15 protestors and it’s SNOWING!
Yeeeeeeees!
I’m thinking a mix of paint balls - 1/2 loaded with blue leather dye and the other 1/2 loaded with itching powder.
MMMhhhh. That reminds me: Once upon a time in a small Missouri town there was a man who terrorized the entire city. He threatened citizens, created a reign of terror I can’t remember all the details. There wasn’t enough to lock him up and throw a way the key, and there was an altercation where people were certain he was going to kill someone.
Next thing you know, he was dead. It is thought that several of the men with hunting rifles shot him dead in his pick up. IIRC, it was in town too. No one saw or heard anything. Murder/vigilante justice was never solved.
It was made into a movie, but I don’t remember the name.
Missouri has had some radical vigilantes in the history of the state. Not always with good results.
60 minutes story awhile back
Nice to see those poor folks at UC in one of the richest places on the planet getting down for a brutha. Income equality, social justice and all that, donchano!
They have their marching orders.
It's all fake (never let a crisis go to waste) The St Louis government, police, governor, rent-a-mob....they're all RATs.
Really? I don’t watch 60 minutes or CBS for that matter. Was it after the M. Brown shooting? Do you remember the name of the town?
I don’t and it was maybe 10 years or so ago. Someone may recall. Sorry
