A human blockade temporarily formed on I-75/85 northbound Wednesday evening as protesters halted traffic. The incident was part of a protest in response to the Aug. 9 fatal shooting of a 18-year-old African-American by a white police officer in Ferguson, Mo.
Atlanta police spokesman Officer John Chafee said a number of protesters were present on the Downtown Connector near Freedom Parkway. Their presence blocked traffic for a short time.
No arrests were made in connection to the protest, he added.
Southerners On New Ground field organizer Mary Hooks told the Associated Press that she and other grassroots organizers helped plan the protest as part of a national week of resistance to mass incarceration and police brutality. She said the protest was also connected to the Ferguson shooting.
People on Twitter were writing in support of the protest using the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter.

Pathetic bullshite!
That was an illegal protest that disrupted the orderly flow of the traffic system. They should've been arrested on the spot.

I wonder if anyone was on an emergency trip to the hospital and got blocked by these jackasses?

We'll they did warn CNN that they had people in Atlanta if they kept reporting lies about the Brown murder. Guess the protestors weren't lying.

What if a black person was in an ambulance that was held up by this 'protest' and that person was permanently injured or died?
Worthless idiot garbage. Society would be better off if such braindead fools all vanished.

Looking at the video it apoears to me that the protestors had a police escort.

great Job, your really making you point and getting people on your side.
I'm sure that guy who is about to get yelled at for being late to work is going to support your side.

You should have used the same philosophy that I used when I see a deer. Lay on the horn and if they don't get out the way that is what a ranch hand is for .
