Myself and an activist/actionist from East Palo Alto carried an IMPEACH banner down E. Bayshore near<BR> San Antonio Road and we stood behind the chain-link fence between E. Bayshore and 101. We stood there holding the banner from 8:00am - 9:00am. Thousands of cars went by and saw the banner. We got lots of honks, waves, peace signs and support from the drivers. We were there until a highway patrol officer came by and told us we were obstructing traffic with our banner. We of course said we were expressing our freedom for free speech. The officer told us they had complaints that we were causing an obstruction to traffic. We of course were not. Paul, the East Palo Atoan and director of this action immediately stated that if our banner was obstructing traffic then so must all the billboards along the freeway be obstructing traffic. The patrol officer did not like hearing that. I then asked her was their a vehicle code for obstructing traffic, she said there was. I asked her what the vehicle code was. She said that if she had to look up the vehicle code she would then have to cite us. She walked back to her car. At that point Paul and I decided to roll up the banner and leave. <BR> <BR> We are planning to stand with the IMPEACH banner on E. Bayshore once a week.<BR> <BR> Merriam<BR> <B><BR> <A href="mailto:jamboi@yahoo.com">jamboi@yahoo.com</A> </B>wrote:<BR> <BR> </I>Yes, we've been doing this kind of thing in Mountain View on Castro<BR> Street after our weekly vigil ( see Cameron's blog on this entitled<BR> "Accidental Peace Action" <BR> <A href="http://www.greencommons.org/node/453">http://www.greencommons.org/node/453</A> ).
