Not going to comment on the videos, just relaying local news Action News 5. Not there in person. Sitting home watching local news. Crowds gathering and bull horns being used to gather them. Clear signs of fighting age males pacing and agitated while call to gather happening. March along I-55 is purpose for the gathering. This could only mean intent to shut down the Highway. It is not for looting purposes.
>>18239608 (me) This is at the location of crossing the old bridge into Arkansas. Traffic stopped and News walking up the Highway asking stuck drivers who are trying to get from Memphis to W/ Memphis Arkansas.
WOW! This protest is MEANT to interfere with cross State travel / commerce. Lady says she saw a male tossing cones and throwing them.
HEADS UPI 40 being reported as blocked also.
This is starting to look like it is designed to federalize NG. No reports of any significant trouble other than blocking people from traveling from TN to AR
>>18239736 (me) News shows a few minutes on the ground then cuts to studio to promote all the wrongs done in history to blacks.
This is not news of an event. This is propaganda using events and live shots on the ground to build a story of decades of civil rights. 2-4 minutes of live coverage and 10 or more mins of BS history.
I don't know if we have any other TN anons watching Memphis and wondering what is happening and only seeing this.
No police allowing vehicles to get over bridges. Trucks trapped on bridge.
>>18239810 (me) blocking these 2 bridges greatly disrupts supply chain. Crossing the MS river for truckers is critical. These protesters are not organic. They are shutting down commerce. Staged at the 2 critical bridges. It is many hours detour to get across the river .

This act of interfering with interstate commerce was the plan. There are no police on the bridges to allow vehicles to get off the bridges.
These bridges were given "F" grades and the weight of this dangerous.
These cops were charged with kidnapping.
These protesters are kidnapping these people trapped on the bridge in the same legal way
About 100 people in 1 location on the I 55 bridge shutting it down. Trapping and kidnapping people .
