Both directions of the Golden Gate Bridge have been shut down due to a Pro-Palestinian protest. Demonstrators have blocked the southbound direction of Highway 101. This is the second protest causing major back-ups on Bay Area roadways, the demonstration has blocked northbound I-880 in Oakland. abc7ne.ws/3UhhvOB
@abc7newsbayarea Protests are meant to be disruptive. We did not get to where we are now by asking nicely.
@abc7newsbayarea Anybody else sick of this?
@abc7newsbayarea Once they never prosecuted the people that did this on the Bay Bridge it will continue. I guess my right to not be illegally detained does not matter in democratic cities anymore.
@abc7newsbayarea @AmyMek People missing flights at SFO, doctor’s appointments, critical tasks at work, and this does nothing except stir up great contempt for the ‘cause.’
@abc7newsbayarea Where's the Mayor? He needs to get them off the bridge NOW.
@abc7newsbayarea There’s more of you all being blocked than doing the blocking, group up and remove them. What’s wrong with ppl? How can you be so complacent?
@abc7newsbayarea How many people are going to die because of these blocked roads? Families need to sue the city
@abc7newsbayarea @AmyMek Good to see the police are on the scene, and doing absolutely nothing. California.
@abc7newsbayarea @vmetu Have they considered arresting and prosecuting them? Definitely an option.
