INQUIRING REPORTER: Did you support the Ironworkers 'aerial blockade?'

Early on Tuesday morning seven Greenpeace protesters scaled the Ironworkers and rappelled to hang from ropes suspended underneath.

Early on Tuesday morning seven Greenpeace protesters scaled the Ironworkers and rappelled to hang from ropes suspended underneath. Their goal was to stop a Kinder Morgan oil tanker from leaving the Westridge oil terminal by making it hard for a tanker to clear the bridge without hitting one of the midair protesters. It was a daring spectacle. On Wednesday afternoon police stepped in to remove them.

While the protesters were still under the bridge, we asked people what they thought of the so-called aerial blockade?
