After nearly two days of hanging from the bridge, the dangling protesters were lowered one by one into the river. The protesters said they were cited with criminal trespassing and interfering with a peace officer.
The moment that three protesters were removed, the Fennica began heading towards the St. Johns Bridge. “Kayaktivists” in the Willamette tried to move in front of the boat’s path but crews pushed them away and the ship passed under the bridge just before 6 p.m. PT. It was expected to reach Astoria by 11:50 p.m…
Members of Portland Fire’s high-angle rescue team lowered down from the bridge and cut the ropes connecting the dangling protesters to each other.

Only ONE protester was charged and he was on the railroad bridge a mile away (which also crosses the same river). None of the REAL protesters were charged, based on “guidance” from Mayor/Police Commissioner Charlie Hale.
Traffic blocked, no permits, commerce stopped, etc. but we now leave it up to the Mayor which laws he will enforce?
Plus even this minimal action came only AFTER the Alaska judge stepped in with the order/fine. Long term effect on Portland commerce (beyond the community continuing as the punch line for jokes) will be devastating for the ship repair industry.
You can't make this SH*T up!

I’m totally shocked. Oh, wait. No I’m not. And, if these assclowns go to court and sue and win, the taxpayers end up paying their attorney fees. Is this a great country or what. Plus they’ll probably get some huge grant from the epa to do more ‘studies’ about the detrimental effects of the drilling. Suh-weeet! Only in ‘Murica.
