what rule or law were those morons trying to change? not at all the same thing.
no one is aying to turn the hoses on them or worse......but everyone knows that perps get 'roughed up' a bit sometimes this very day when being arrested, especially if they don't comply. hell we tase and club people on camera and most applaud those actions, if warranted.
the issue is that the police stood and watched the blatant law breaking that was causing a very annoying, dangerous, time wasting, right infringing, gas guzzling situation and did nothing for 2 hours. why did they do that? (looks to be the spineless mayor and police chief that are to blame....SURPRISE!)
i wonder what a poll of those thousands of drivers and commuters would have looked like.
I bet a few would WANT and ASK you to move them, aggresively if needed.
