    Because they are interfering with the freedoms of their fellow citizens. Can you imagine how the people in those cars stuck in traffic feel? Some might be parents trying to get to their kids after working all day. They are being held up for what? Because some people are mad? These bums should learn to control their emotions like adults.

    Hey man, I'm on your side for once - "protesting" on 288 was a bad idea. It's exactly the kind of rise that people pushing the racism narrative wanted in this case because it means more ratings. Did CNN insinuate "potential riots" with their fingers crossed? Self-fulfilling prophecies = ratings bonanza. Did Quannell X get even more attention over this? Of course he did! The cycle of news life continues.

    But calling them the "scum of the earth," when there are genocidal warlords, cartel bosses, corrupt politicians, bankers scheming entire financial systems, despots AND the Utah Jazz management is a little... hyperbolic. Come on, man.

    They should release a bunch of bulls onto the streets where the protests are taking place. We could start a running of the bulls tradition :cool:

    Where did this inside joke originate? Was it during Hurricane Ike?

    LOL @ protesters. That's pathetic they're preventing people who had absolutely nothing to do with the crime/trial/verdict from simply getting back to their homes. What difference are they going to make?

    I doubt the hippies would have stood and blocked a g.d. Freeway!

    Unbelievable

    Standing in the middle of a highway is a crime. Don't believe me? Go try it.

    Protesting is a vital part of a democracy.
