Massive Occupy Wall Street march on 5/1 - threaten to shut down bridges/tunnels

http://news.yahoo.com/occupy-wall-st...101015743.html

Occupy Wall Street is planning a massive march on May 1. They plan to block the bridges and tunnels into Manhattan that day, as well as march all over Manhattan.

I support what Occupy stands for, but what's the point of inconveniencing the 99% just trying to get to work? That's not going to win any new supporters, and would likely piss off supporters. The Holland and Lincoln tunnels are backed up 30 minutes on normal days, if the Occupy people block them by standing in the streets, it'll double or triple that time.
