Better keep your azzes off I-10, you outside instigators!! 
Police Arrests Keep I-110 Moving in Baton Rouge
Yeah and that injury was when someone threw something at the cop and busted his teeth.
But they blamed some of the violence on outsiders, not the locals
At the moment, we are working in central Mississippi and won't be down that way for a few more weeks.
Hopefully things will calm down by then.

If we stop our work season 4 weeks sooner than normal as we are talking about doing, that would mean dropping the Baton Rouge fair. (YAY)
The B.R. fair was never that great anyway, just a suped up county fair that they act is like a state fair.......NOT!!
And there is one B.R. fair-board committee guy that we cannot stand -- he's very arrogant, condescending and rude towards the carnival people.
(hey azzhole, you know who you are!!
)
Not to mention expensive footage, that is not worth it.
And with all that is going on now with the BLM in town, the violence/riots they are known to promote, might be a good time to stop doing it anyway.
Police Arrests Keep I-110 Moving in Baton Rouge
Quote:Officers stared down hundreds of shouting protesters near a ramp onto Interstate 110 in Louisiana's capital Sunday night before another squad in riot gear arrived to make arrests.
Earlier Sunday, some 2,000 people rallied outside the Capitol building to protest police killings of black people, State Police Maj. Doug Cain said.
"They didn't have any problems out there. They seemed to be very organized and peaceful," Cain said.
But as night began to fall, a few hundred people aimed for an on-ramp, trying a tactic protesters were using this weekend in multiple cities.
And after a lengthy standoff, more police in full riot gear moved in, pinning some of the protesters as others fled. Some 30 to 40 people were jailed for trying to block a highway, sheriff's spokeswoman Casey Rayborn Hicks said.
That could push Baton Rouge's weekend arrest total above 160, with just one reported injury to a police officer.
Yeah and that injury was when someone threw something at the cop and busted his teeth.
But they blamed some of the violence on outsiders, not the locals
Quote:The Baton Rouge police spokesman, Sgt. Don Coppola, blamed some violence and the large number of arrests on outside agitators. One officer lost teeth to a projectile thrown outside police headquarters, and police also confiscated three rifles, three shotguns and two pistols during that protest, he wrote in an email.
"It appears the protest at Baton Rouge Police Headquarters have become more violent as out of town protesters are arriving," he said.
But most of those detained live in Louisiana and faced a single charge of obstructing a highway, sheriff's spokeswoman Hicks told The Associated Press.
At the moment, we are working in central Mississippi and won't be down that way for a few more weeks.
Hopefully things will calm down by then.
