CRENSHAW (CBSLA.com) — Crowds of anti-Zimmerman protesters shut down part of the 10 Freeway in Crenshaw Sunday evening.
About 200 demonstrators stood on the freeway to block traffic.
Many held signs with Trayvon Martin’s likeness, other held signs asking for “justice” and “peace.”
Traffic was stopped on the EB and SB 10 Freeway for about 30 minutes.
Another group splintered off from this group and disrupted traffic on Crenshaw Boulevard, said police.
In the 10 Freeway protest, there were reports that some of the protesters threw water bottles, batteries and rocks at police near 39th and Crenshaw.
Officers called for back up at the off-ramp and on-ramp at Vernon and Leimert to keep more protesters off the freeway.
Authorities told CBS2′s Art Barron that no arrests have been made. He said police were on city-wide tactical alert.
Officials also told Barron they used rubber bullets to push the crowd back. The group that commandeered the 10 Freeway reportedly splintered off from an earlier peaceful crowd with some of those imploring protesters to not block traffic.
The freeway reopened about 6:45 p.m.
Following the protest, KCAL9′s Brittney Hopper said one arrest was made and that while officers remain on tactical alert, no officers were allowed to go off duty.
She also said what was “briefly a scary situation, is now peaceful.”
LAPD Commander Andrew Smith said the force would make sure that everyone was able to express their First Amendment rights “but will make sure it remains peaceful and that no one gets hurt.”
Demonstrations have also been reported on Crenshaw Boulevard and Wilshire Boulvard.
Police faced off with demonstrators on Crenshaw Boulevard where some protesters darted in and out of the street to disrupt traffic starting around 8:15 p.m.
Reporting from the scene, Greg Mills reporting for KCAL9 called it “a rowdy scene.”
It was unclear if the Wilshire demonstration — at La Brea — also included protesters trying to block the road.

When in doubt... GAS IT!
I think they have a right to protest. If they were tea party protesting NSA spying you and I would support blocking the streets like that. Let them vent as long as it is peaceful.
I'd be standing on the sidewalk, not blocking traffic. Yes they have a right to protest, but not to block the streets or access to businesses, etc...
That is true.
I would support blocking the streets if they marched on DC. Lock all the congressmen where they are. Don't let them leave until they vote to impeach Obama.
Oh Puleese. Whatever would you find to bitch about if your favorite obsession is removed. Obama has done the country a favor by exposing the average conservative for what they really are.... whiney thugs.

Okay now. You had a blank reply as if Stoned censored it. Now I can read your response.
Reid, Pelosi, Barbara Boxer, McCain, Graham, Feinstein, Biden, Boehner, the dykes on the supreme court, Hillary and 98 percent of other elected craps.
Yeah they shouldn't whine when Obama violates his oath of office by suspending the Obamacare mandate for larger employers to provide health care coverage. If they let him get away with that he is a dictator. Oh they aren't whining about that. They are going along with it. Fuck them.
To: shortstop I can’t believe how much HATE there is in this country, all based on purposefully false racism ... a paranoid radical racist mindset --- from black “leaders” - white “enablers”. 6 posted on Monday, July 15, 2013 3:18:29 AM by LibFreeUSA To: shortstop The Zimmerman trial was an example of Soviet “people’s justice” The prosecutors and the judge were left wing hack political apparatchiks and were following orders. The only thing that saved Zimmerman was that they were at least this time unable to stack or intimidate the jury. 7 posted on Monday, July 15, 2013 3:19:26 AM by allendale To: shortstop Obama is the most divisive President in the nation’s history. 8 posted on Monday, July 15, 2013 3:20:17 AM by headstamp 2 (What would Scooby do?) http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3043082/posts#6 If you ... don't use exclamation points --- you should't be typeing !

Suspended or delayed for a year means the same thing. Where in the constitution or in the legislation passed does the dicksucker in the White House have the authority to delay a law. He is charged with making sure the laws of the land are faithfully executed. Impeach dickbreath.
You moron, posting some crappy inflammatory comments from another site does not constitute an article. In addition, you open up Goldi to legal action from TOS because the comments at TOS are copyrighted to TOS. If you love TOS so much, just stay over there in the swamp and stop polluting LP with TOS comments. Stop hiding out over here with your mindless crapfest content under an assumed handle. You've already managed to almost ruin LibertysFlame with your phony crap articles. TooConservative posted on 2013-07-15 +1

Thanks for posting here. You are an excellent punching bag. You demonstrate for everyone the stupidity of liberals. The law is set to take effect in 2014. It isn't going to be. What part of that doesn't your rice sized brain not understand?
The law is set to take effect in 2014. It isn't going to be. What part of that doesn't your rice sized brain not understand? Actually you and a few others here show very easily the irrationality of a very vocal contingent of conservatives. Politics is always about compromise, which you guys just don't seem to understand.
