A pro-Palestinian protest action briefly blocked all traffic on the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco Wednesday morning.

Starting at about 7:45 a.m. Protesters stopped cars and stretched banners across the roadway denouncing Israel’s bombing of Rafah in the Gaza Strip and demanding that the U.S. stop arming Israel.

Northbound and southbound traffic on the bridge was at a standstill as of 8 a.m.

      What does it say about your cause when you care more about theoretical ambulances getting stuck than tens of thousands of children being indiscriminately killed in Gaza? Again, there are plans in place for this exact situation in every major city.

      If you don’t like the first amendment and live in America, move somewhere else. Not every protest is going to wait weeks or months for a permit to sit on a sidewalk. That’s not how change happens, especially when the call for change is urgent.

      Imagine being so bland and privileged that you’ve never cared enough to get up off your ass to fight for something. It’s a lot easier to sit on your butt and virtue signal about the people who are.
