TACOMA, Wash. — Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protestors swarmed the Port of Tacoma Monday morning in an attempt to block what they believed to be a ship that would be loaded with weapons and military equipment bound for Israel.
The Port of Tacoma entrance was blocked by protestors shortly before 5:30 a.m., forcing drivers to turn around. Pedestrians and cyclists were seen demonstrating with signs and chants. Some signs read "No aid for Israel” and "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free."
"The goal here is to delay or stop any kind of arms shipments form the United States to Israel,” Eliyahu Khaspi told KOMO News.
The Tacoma Police Department (TPD) posted on X just after 10 a.m. advising drivers that traffic along East 11th Street was blocked from Port of Tacoma Road to Milwaukee Way due to “a protest demonstration.” The department said officers were at the scene to help direct traffic in the area and to “ensure the continued safety of all community members.”

Exactly the same response when the left starts going after Trump supporters, in the run up to the 2024 election.
I was thinking more like sharks gotta eat too...
Isn’t this the second time they blocked a port?
Someone in the TSA is definitely tipping them off with the support of Biden
The Tacoma aroma always was a stank.
Islamocommieprogs seem to be everywhere.
Insurectionny…
You can demonstrate and block a port now. How nice. Perhaps a bit aggressive, but I’d shut down an airport next.
