Successful protest

What's up folks, I was present at this protest and was one the three activists arrested for blocking traffic. We had a very successful day blocking trucks from entering the site all day long and we greatly impededed IES's daily operations. I hope this action will serve as an inspiration to other activists to help out with this issue. We have a strong coalition and will win this fight.
