Oh no the bollards! @worldbollardassoc.bsky.social
The driver took out multiple bollards and the stair railing 😲
In Peter's photo, you can see the snow covered circle at the top of the stairs at the right (where a bollard used to be) and another bollard knocked out at the bottom left.

With all the *gestures around wildly* going on, I thought I’d re-up my gear recommendation for a hot protest where there’s likely to be gas deployed. This kit aims to solve two problems:
1. Stop the gas from settling on the skin of your face, head, and neck
