Greenpeace Protestors Hanging off Portland Bridge to Stop Shell Ship

13 People are hanging off the St. Johns Bridge in Portland blocking the outgoing path of a Shell Oil icebreaker that came here for repairs. NBC article has video. (Pieces of it autoplay.) I love my city.
From the Greenpeace site: Greenpeace US activists have suspended themselves from St. Johns Bridge in Portland, Oregon to block a Shell Oil vessel from leaving port for Alaskan waters. The climbers have enough supplies to last several days, and are prepared to stay in Shell's way as long as possible.
The vessel was in Portland for repairs, and the exploration drilling is not allowed to continue until it gets back to the other ships. If you would like to write Obama and ask him to stop Shell from doing exploratory drilling, a link is here.
