I wonder if there are structural concerns with those footbridges?  Maybe the thinking is that way too many people will congregate up there to watch the race, raising the likelihood of collapse.  They probably have to keep the bridges open for pedestrians, so this might have seemed like a reasonable solution.

I suspect your snout is turned up Rory. What I see is functional and effective design of this home. Resulting is relatively affordable construction. 

Do people who write for Jalopnik actually like cars?

Protesting is legal but there’s lots of things done here that were not legal. So I think the argument is that this protest turned criminal and the city wants to sell the tools that were used to commit the crimes, in this case trucks, to recuperate the costs.

Love all the libertarians who are mad about property being taken to cover the cost of law enforcement managing this nightmare.

When those vehicles are being used to disrupt traffic and block supply lines, seize away.

I think the punishment fits the crime.

I’m gonna buy one and turn it into a mobile vaccine center.

She doesn’t realize that’s what she’s saying, but that’s exactly what she’s saying...

I think what you really mean is To Really Cut Carbon Emissions, Stop Living.

Occassional Cortex is irrelevant. What she believes or plans has no bearing outside the four walls of her office where reality exists. Inside are where the unicorns and fairy dust and 21 trillion pentagon dollars are just taking up space waiting to be spent.

So we can let you speak for all women? Did you speak up for the poor “grid girls” who were fired doing something they enjoyed?

Please stop with the “it worked there, so it should work everywhere,” as far as bike / walk friendliness goes. I live in a city of 150K in Oregon which destroyed its downtown in several easy moves:

I’m so sick of this bitchs anti-car rants.
