Black Lives Matter activists decided to shut down the I-5 bridge in Washington State outside of Seattle.
Earlier this a year a Black Lives Matter activists was killed during a highway shutdown.
On the highway, activists yelled, “If we don’t get it, shut it down!.”

They did let one car through so they could get to the doctors.
If you listen to the video of the man with the bullhorn you’ll hear someone yell, “Get a job!”
We are still shut down here: pic.twitter.com/rKcBcu8EZ5

The man refused to get out of the vehicle. After the driver is arrested one of the BLM leaders calls a black trooper a “house n***a.” As she continues to yell at troopers one of them said, “This isn’t Seattle. This is the freeway. You’ll learn.”
JUST IN: Washington State Patrol arrests every single criminal BLM driver for illegally protesting on the NB- I5 freeway.

A woman was also arrested for obstructing.
Some of the chaos from when state patrol arrested protesters. Erica was riding as a passenger with me and was told she was free to go until a different officer said she was “obstructing” pic.twitter.com/qehGiMtnmi
