More Bechtel Protest Info
Just before 1:00 pm there was another round of arrests.
Just before 1:00 pm this afternoon there was another round of arrests. Approximately 20 more peaceful protesters blocked the doors to Bechtel and were arrested by a group of no less than 50 police, as at least 50 more police stood watch. The police lined up like kids in line at the amusement park to make the arrests. Unfortunately, there were more kids, er, I mean police, than protesters, so some of them had to go home disappointed.
Next time anyone complains about police overtime pay for dealing with protests, someone should take a look at pictures from this afternoon. Police in full formation, motorcycle cops all in a line, etc. It was such ridiculous overkill.
