When democrats do it it’s totally ok!

But I'm not a lawyer. Let's bring in the resident lawyer @ChiGoose. From a legal perspective, why is this not false imprisonment? Not my area of expertise, but I don't think false imprisonment or related charges would be successful. Being annoying and causing traffic isn't the same as imprisonment or restraint. People can always get out of their cars and walk (as it seems many did in this instance). A quick glance at the IL code around false imprisonment doesn't reveal an obvious charge. Many of the protesters did get arrested and charged, however: 40 protesters arrested outside O'Hare Airport for blocking traffic; forcing people to walk to terminals I imagine the charges end up being something around obstruction or interference with traffic but we'll see when the charges are released. As a sidenote: my wife unwittingly got caught up in this. The traffic backed up pretty severely and she ended up being quite late to work this morning. That's part of a pretty major highway intersection. 1

I can't believe these morons believe these stunts will get people on their side. 1

Causing people to miss their flights isn’t going to endear anyone to your side. Seems like this group was probably pretty insular in their thinking. 1

BillsFanNC Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 Can't condemn burning the flag or chants of "death to America" Gee, I wonder how anyone could get the crazy idea that these elected officials are actually America hating commies. 1 1

Tommy Callahan Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 The Lefts idea of protesting kind of ignores the part about "peaceful grievance of GOVERNMENT." Stopping people (an actual crime in every state, False imprisonment), harassing business owners isn't helping their cause.
Tommy Callahan Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 The folks that want micro aggressions (words) to be a criminal act with criminal consequences won't be a fan of that being put into law. could be used against them as they do nothing but throw insults that them themselves would call a micro aggression, and then claim victimhood. NYS has an anti-hate sign law that prohibits things like the rebel flag/nazi flag, how long till communist flags and banners are in the same boat.
B-Man Posted April 18, 2024 Author Posted April 18, 2024 These protesters go to extraordinary lengths to prove their dedication to the cause. Some glue themselves to the road. Others chain their hands together inside PVC pipe so they can't be moved. This genius stuck his arm in a concrete barrel and screamed in pain when the police finally showed up and worked to remove him. Listen to him yelling how they're "twisting his hand" when they're telling him to just let go of the rebar. 1
