BERLIN (Reuters) -Fifteen climate activists glued themselves to the asphalt of motorways in Germany, causing rush hour traffic jams on Monday, in the latest protests demanding a law against food waste and cuts in greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture.

A total of 252 protesters have taken part in a series of road blockades over the past two weeks, 69 of them fusing themselves to the asphalt to make it harder to remove them, according to German climate activist group “Last Generation”.

A Reuters video showed frustrated motorists held up on the capital Berlin’s main A100 motorway on Monday getting out of their cars and dragging some of the activists out of the way by their hoods and backpacks.

A total of 42 activists took part in motorway blockades in Berlin and in the southwestern city of Freiburg on Monday, according to Last Generation.

Freiburg police launched investigations against 11 people and Berlin police were verifying activists’ identities and checking if they could be placed in custody.

“Nahh. I think it was just a speedbump.”

Rip the part of these leftist protesters not glued to the asphalt off of the road. What’s left stuck on the road can be ground into the asphalt by the now-moving traffic.

In Germany they're blocking roads to demand MORE government intrusion in their lives.

In Canada they're blocking roads to demand LESS government intrusion in their lives.

How do you tell the difference between an “activist” and an “insurrectionist”?

...fusing themselves to the asphalt to make it harder to remove them

What sort of glue works best for gluing asphalt to skin? 2-part epoxy? Polyurethane adhesive? Cyanoacrylates?
