Black Lives Matter protesters were out in force Saturday night, stopping traffic for a time on the George Washington Bridge in NYC in a loud, tense but peaceful protest.

Black Lives Matter protesters were out in force Saturday night, stopping traffic for a time on the George Washington Bridge in NYC in a loud, tense but mostly peaceful protest.

The crowd chanted"No justice, no peace" as protesters put cones on the bridge to prevent traffic from crossing. The bridge was blocked for only 40 minutes, but the point was certainly driven home. There were some tense moments between police and protesters, but for the most part, it didn't get out of hand. There were a few shoving matches between protesters and police. At one point you see a cop push a protester who falls on the pavement.

The protest then moved to the 34th Precinct where the group continued to demonstrate, chanting,"F*** the police."

That’s not peaceful protesting. That’s vigilante irresponsibility and totally uncouth.

Glad they don’t have jobs or families, bills or groceries to buy... being independent and wealthy is nice

Run em over.. and they cry like babies when someone gets hurt..

I really can't stand protest of any kind. I get it's an American right to do but it's just annoying. That being said, this type of protest really pisses off Trump supporters. So from that standpoint, I kinda like it.

Bridge closed, problem solved. It worked!

Keep on driving.

That’s perfect, shut down a city that’s already been destroyed. BLM you might want to goto a city the stores are still open where you will be able to steal and loot. NY has already been ransacked. Please move to next town over and start again

tmz not saying much about their people attempting to execute law enforcement. tmz hates America.

Enough! BLM is nothing but hate!

Yeah THAT will help their cause 🤦‍♀️

And they wonder why ... 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Arrest them already..blocking roadways is a crime!

That’s pretty 🔥fuck the police u herd 👂🏽

Stopping traffic is not peaceful. It's essentially kidnapping since it's holding them captive....

BLM are handing the votes to Trump. Watch your social media more and more people are getting fed up with BLM’s actions.

This is what they call ignorance

Idiots

Turn these folks into speed bumps.

Many of these BLM protestors are getting ridiculous.

What else is new

Run them over. Plain and simple. No clear roadway, make one.

And supports this?

How long before the Port Authority of NY and NJ ask for government funds? Every car blocked from crossing that bridge was a loss of $16.

If they didn't have the proper permits then this wasn't a protest.

I am so sick and tired of these animals and then when someone drives through the crowd and people are hurt or killed it will be the drivers fault!!!

Lock them all up. This is seriously ridiculous. They should all go to jail. Lock them up!

New York City is gone.......

Looters and rioters not protesters.

✊🏿

Domestic terrorism

Just keep driving.

TMZ....you are supposed to be an entertainment outlet....stop spreading hate in the world we get enough of that on the news feeds....you are making things worse.

Stupid pieces of S

Chief Keef sister Husband *New* Music Video

I wish that they put in this much effort on black on black crimes KingJames

But this stops if Biden is elected, right? Convince me

If I need to get home, I’m driving through I don’t care if it’s 1mph or not. You can’t stop a vehicle.

What’s the point? What if there was an emergency? Blm is attributing to their stereotypes.

omg are you serious? the point has been made and there is support. all that is going to happen now by keep going is losing everyone’s support.

This is not helpful.

First mug shot released.

Walt Disney World is still open! Come on down!

Let's get it rocking.....Where's the proud boys now?....They come into the zoo probably not going to go so good for em....

Terrorists after NYC again! Shut down this organization, it is doing nothing for race relations 🤫

It was the first time all four men have appeared in court at the same time. They might walk because the DA overcharged. Justice is not what the mob demands. People forget that. However, the courts have gone political so they will find them guilty of something. Really?! Is that the type of JUSTICE they gave to George Floyd AttorneyCrump The demonstrators don’t realize their actions actually are supporting any defense motion for change of venue!
