Republicans have always hated protesting. What, can't people just go out and find a billionaire to pay politicians and influence public opinion with lots of money instead?
Indiana bill would allow police to shut down protests 'by any means necessary' ... Republican senator Jim Tomes proposed law, simply labelled Senate Bill 285, or SB 285, and designed to deal with “traffic obstruction by protestors” would go into effect in July if passed. It calls for officials, such as a city mayor or county sheriff, to be required to quickly clear any mass traffic obstruction – defined as 10 or more protesters – blocking roads ... the bill states.
“A responsible public official shall, not later than 15 minutes after learning of a mass traffic obstruction in the official’s jurisdiction, dispatch all available law enforcement officers … with directions to use any means necessary to clear the roads of the persons unlawfully obstructing vehicular traffic.”
