CT Police close I-95 N and S between exits 15-17 (BLM)

Vanity | Dr. Thorne

[Dr. Thorne]

People traveling on I-95 right now 8pm EDT be aware that police have genuflected to BLM by allowing protesters to block both northbound and southbound lanes between exit 15 (Route 7) and exit 17 (Westport).

Hopefully, the police, who clearly support this action, will allow emergency vehicles through, but who knows.

So, again, the law abiding citizens must yeild to the law breakers. What a country!

What has this nation come to? This is ridiculous.

Stay out of the state of Connecticut. Do not visit or spend money there...let them feel the pain...

That is not peaceful protesting. That is in your face. That is “we will prevent you from going about your business cause your lives DON’T matter”.

[Col Frank Slade]

Gov Lamont probably gave State Police stand down orders.

No plans for CT.

The Tates and Campbells aren’t around.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Is traffic just piling up, or did they suggest detours?

Hit the gas pedal.

Pretend you bowling.

BLM = Burn, Loot, Murder.

Used to live in CT when it was a nice place decades ago. I wonder how many of the current residents will notice the problem

Criminals run the show - we pay for it.

I'm sure are commercial truck drivers on I95 right now. Why is the law ignored: 18 U.S. Code § 1951.Interference with commerce by threats or violence (a)Whoever in any way or degree obstructs, delays, or affects commerce or the movement of any article or commodity in commerce, by robbery or extortion or attempts or conspires so to do, or commits or threatens physical violence to any person or property in furtherance of a plan or purpose to do anything in violation of this section shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both. (b)As used in this section— (1)The term “robbery” means the unlawful taking or obtaining of personal property from the person or in the presence of another, against his will, by means of actual or threatened force, or violence, or fear of injury, immediate or future, to his person or property, or property in his custody or possession, or the person or property of a relative or member of his family or of anyone in his company at the time of the taking or obtaining. (2)The term “extortion” means the obtaining of property from another, with his consent, induced by wrongful use of actual or threatened force, violence, or fear, or under color of official right. (3)The term “commerce” means commerce within the District of Columbia, or any Territory or Possession of the United States; all commerce between any point in a State, Territory, Possession, or the District of Columbia and any point outside thereof; all commerce between points within the same State through any place outside such State; and all other commerce over which the United States has jurisdiction. (c)This section shall not be construed to repeal, modify or affect section 17 of Title 15, sections 52, 101–115, 151–166 of Title 29 or sections 151–188 of Title 45.

Local CT news says Norwalk which makes mire sense. Westport is white.

Interstate highways are run by the state.

[Gay State Conservative]

Let the looters and the brick hurlers loose in all those progressive enclaves of New Canaan and Dairen.

Glad I left the “Nut”meg state many, many years ago.

Hope no one there, black or white or purple, needs to call 911 tonight.
