Mon Jun 9th: Protesters shut down Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge in Dallas in solidarity w/ LA ICE protests
Monday night June 9, 2025
Of course the asshole Dallas officially called the protest “illegal”
“unlawful”
Note: this bridge is not what I would consider one of the main highways
at all, ….yes it is used by quite a lot of people, but it’s not a bridge over the Trinity River bottoms like the major freeways I-35 and I-30 bridges
It’s the local go-to bridge for protesting ..
In reality it’s not that big a deal that it was blocked by protesters
IMO

Protesters shut down Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge in Dallas in solidarity with LA protests and riots
Hundreds of protesters flooded the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge Monday night in a show of solidarity with demonstrators in Los Angeles, who have been clashing with law enforcement over ICE immigration crackdowns. The Dallas protest, organized through social media, briefly blocked traffic as activists held signs reading “Abolish ICE” and “No Human Is Illegal”.
Police declared the gathering an unlawful assembly shortly after 10 p.m., ordering protesters to disperse. Officers deployed pepper spray to clear the crowd, resulting in at least one arrest, though authorities have not disclosed further details.
Tensions over federal immigration enforcement have been rising nationwide, with LA protesters facing tear gas, rubber bullets, and National Guard deployment in recent days. Protesters in Dallas condemned the use of force, arguing that ICE’s actions are driving fear and instability in immigrant communities.
