The First Amendment to the Constitution guarantees the right to peaceably assemble. 

But some leftists wanted to cross the peaceable line and got a rude awakening.

And this must-watch video showed the blueprint for dealing with unhinged protesters. 

American leftists take a page from European radicals 

Radical activists in Europe have spent years perfecting the art of climate protests guaranteed to make the masses hate you. 

From interrupting major sporting events by throwing powder everywhere, to defacing classic works of art, to blocking traffic by forming human chains and sitting in the road. 

While the tactics don’t win them many fans, they attract massive attention from Big Media and social media alike. 

And like many bad ideas from the European Left, those same tactics have migrated here stateside. 

While spineless elected officials in blue cities and states are just allowing the chaos to continue, Republican Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida has a different approach for dealing with woke protesters who are violating the rights and safety of others. 

Putting American lives at risk

Earlier this week, it wasn’t the enviro-extremists who held coordinated and disruptive and dangerous protests all over the United States – it was the anti-Israel zealots. 

From New York to California and in major cities everywhere between, these Palestine and Hamas supporters formed blockades turning roads, highways and bridges across the country into parking lots. 

The Golden Gate Bridge in California’s Bay Area was blocked by protesters with signs reading, “Stop the World for Gaza,” and “End the Siege on Gaza Now.” 

The protest risked first responders like cops, firefighters or EMTS getting stuck, not being able to respond to a scene in a timely manner, putting lives in jeopardy. 

Conservative commentator Katie Pavlich pointed out that elected officials could put a stop to the life-threatening protests. 

“Allowing this to continue is a choice,” Pavlich tweeted. “Law enforcement needs to do their jobs, local and federal.” 

Law enforcement officials called the protests a coordinated effort. 

“It was an orchestrated event,” said California Highway Patrol Chief Don Goodbrand.  “They blocked three separate locations on freeways. They prevented law enforcement, paramedics, ambulances from getting to their points of destination.”

Meanwhile, in Chicago, the anti-Israeli radicals blocked the entrance to O’Haire airport. 

CNN reported similar protests in New York, Oregon and Washington state. 

But when agitators tried the same thing in the Sunshine State, they found a not-so-welcoming committee waiting for them. 

Ron DeSantis has dangerous protesters arrested 

In Ron DeSantis’ Florida, pro-Palestine and pro-Hamas supporters tried linking arms and laying in the road to stop everyday life from happening. 

However, they were in for a rude awakening. 

Florida law enforcement agents showed up to the scene, removed the activists from the road and arrested them. 

According to Florida law code 861.01, obstructing a highway is a crime punishable by up to 15 years behind bars.

“Whoever obstructs any public road or established highway by fencing across or into the same or by willfully causing any other obstruction in or to such road or highway, or any part thereof, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor of the first degree.”
