The Idiocy Has Started
KFWB, Los Angeles | 3/19/03 | william clark

Posted on 03/19/2003 2:01:45 PM PST by william clark

Anti-war protestors are holding a protest at the Federal Building in Westwood, and have shut down Wilshire Boulevard, blocking access to the 405. The hilarious thing about this is that they've chosen about the most anti-war area in the country for this protest, so they're mostly inconveniencing their own.

Cool. Time to blockade some clinic entrances! Why? Cause undoubtedly the charges will be dropped against these war protestors but upheld against pro-lifers. Set's up a perfect 14th amendment argument against FACE. (Equal protection clause..)

I heard on Hannity that Pete Stark has said that bombing Iraq will be an "act of extreme terrorism."

That's okay. At least in this country they have the right.

They're very quick to back off here, too, in los angeles.

Too many leftist lawsuits, and leftist judges.

Oh, ya, I haven't lived there in years. I don't know why anyone lives there except for the weather. Oh, look at the clock, I have to go. I won't be able to respond to any more posts for a while :)

You know, it's really not a good idea to mess with rush hour traffic in Los Angeles.....

Here's hoping that someone teaches them a new way to part their hair:

How about individual or class action suits against them for causing missed appointments, late child care charges, etc?

If only they were on my side of the street, I would have doused them with something yellow.

No and by protesting and attempting to find meaningful causes they try to put some kind of meaning into their empty, boring lives. Same with Hollywood, between movies they have little to do with their time.

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A man protesting the looming U.S. war on Iraq fell to his death from San Francisco's famed Golden Gate Bridge on Wednesday as he was hanging a banner, officials said.
"He appears to have been hanging a banner of some kind," said California Highway Patrol officer Timothy Willock. "We're not sure if he decided to jump or slipped while he was, you know, hanging the banner. That's unclear right now."

Anti-war sentiment is strong in the San Francisco Bay Area but the death of the man in his 30s was the first related to the latest protests over the U.S.-led war against Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.

See a protestor blocking a road, gently remove them.

It's hard to be gentle with your bumpers.

Ya, but their punk friends will beat up the driver AND his or her baby. If it's a far left city, the cops will side with the punks.

Only if they stop...

You get out of your car, get others out of their cars, form a chain, and move the protestors back on the curb. Repeat till they stay. If they refuse to leave, it's time to use force. :-)
