tl;dr version:
I called DOTD to see which roads would be closed and when (so I can avoid that area), was told they had no info and to call the state's Homeland Security. Called them, they said they had no info and to call DOTD.

You think you can just call up and ask what the presidents exact routes and schedule are?

You know you're on a watch list now right?

They aren't going to tell you that far in advance so that you can plan on attacking him. Come on bruh!

Did you really think they would tell you his schedule and route he was going to take?

Looks like the restrictions are from 6:30pm tonight until 1pm tomorrow. Hopefully no one is flying through BTR then

Just look at the Airport and imagine everything from there to McKinley being blocked off within two blocks of shortest path.

110-10E, Highland north of campus, Dalrymple across from MHS, all that shite gone be blocked.

Passed by the parking lot at City Park yesterday. Truck loads of barricades ready to go.

They should put him in a rent-a-car and let him navigate himself. Let him see the horror for himself.

Avoid the streets named after presidents and Indians.

That would explain the air traffic restrictions starting tonight. Maybe he's staying at the Days inn right by the airport, would be a real treat seeing north baton rouge during an evening

President Barack Obama arrives in Baton Rouge this evening. He’s expected to be greeted by Gov. John Bel Edwards at the airport and will stay in a downtown Baton Rouge hotel before appearing at McKinley High on Thursday.
