On Monday, "Stop the World for Gaza" protesters blocked the Golden Gate Bridge in both directions for five hours. Sen. Tom Cotton was asked about the protest on Fox News and said that if they tried that in Arkansas, there'd be "a lot of wet criminals."
Cotton posted on X the following day:
Tom Cotton (@TomCottonAR) ~ I encourage people who get stuck behind the pro-Hamas mobs blocking traffic: take matters into your own hands to get them out of the way.
It's time to put an end to this nonsense.
The San Francisco Chronicle has picked up the story of Cotton wanting kidnapped drivers to take matters into their own hands. Our own Amy Curtis wrote a VIP post arguing for Cotton and the government to do their job, which is to clear the roads.
Frankly, we love videos of pissed-off drivers dragging protesters out of the way. They are essentially being kidnapped, with their freedom of movement taken away.
San Francisco Chronicle (@sfchronicle) ~ Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., called for people to “take matters into your own hands” to remove “mobs blocking traffic” in a post on X Monday.

URECOMM (@URECOMM) ~ Brazen "Brutal Blonde" Takes Drastic Measures to Clear Traffic Obstruction by Dragging Climate Activist
In a recent incident in Bottrop, Germany, tensions rose as a climate change activist faced resistance from a frustrated individual who took drastic measures to clear a blocked roadway. The incident, captured on video and shared by an activist group, attracted significant attention, with the woman involved being dubbed a "brutal blonde" by European media outlets.
According to the video footage, the woman can be seen passionately urging the climate change protester to vacate the road, expressing her discontent with the ongoing protests that disrupt daily life. As emotions ran high, the situation escalated, and the woman resorted to grabbing the activist by her hair, pulling her aside.
Despite this forceful intervention, the activist returned to block the road once again, resulting in a second incident where she was dragged away by her hair by "Brutal Blonde"
We'd love to hear your thoughts!

Actually, this is how you do it, politely. I wouldn't be near this polite.
